Sandown – the suburb
Extent:
• 190Ha of land
Land uses and Housing Potential:
• While Sandown is predominantly a residential development, it also provides a significant area of open space and a wide range of educational and commercial mixed-use opportunities.
• From a built environment point of view, the range of development opportunities will create an urban landscape with contrasts in height, massing and architectural appearance. This, together with the undulating topography, will ensure an interesting urban landscape.
• While it is the intention to provide a higher income residential living environment, the range of residential opportunities will also allow new homeowners to buy into the development, as well as providing high-end investment opportunities for the well-established homeowners.
• The residential component provides for a range of residential products, ranging from smaller entry level erven through medium to the larger erven.
• Additionally, higher density apartment development along Sandown Road will be incorporated into the mixed-use fabric of this linear zone.
Position:
Sandown is: • positioned east of Wood Drive where the Parklands College (Sandown Campus) has been
established, north of Sandown Road and extends in a easterly direction towards the recently launched Rivergate development.
• within walking distance to Checkers Hyper, Virgin Active and the Food Lovers Market situated in the adjoining Parklands North development.
• by road, approximately 5km to Big Bay, 4km to Blouberg Beachfront and 4km to Flamingo Vlei.
• on the MyCiti Bus collector route, with change-‐over at Bayside Centre to Cape Town CBD. • by road, 21km to the Cape Town International Conference Centre.
Development opportunities / potential:
• Commercial opportunities include both retail (shops) and offices, positioned along Sandown Road – the “commercial precinct”.
• A total of 93,000sq metres of commercial bulk has been approved for development in this precinct. To put this in perspective, that’s the same size as 18 rugby fields.
• Sandown Road is the new road link between the West Coast Road (R27) and the National Road to the north (N7).
• Residential opportunities, some 1,500 to 2,000 residential homes are to be built here with plot sizes typically ranging from 300 to 750m².
• Institutional and education. The Parklands College (Sandown Campus) has been established here. Now amongst the top 15 schools in the Western Cape, this college occupies 15.5Ha of land allowing for further expansion of the school.
Property Owners Association:
• A Property Owners Association will be formed to ensure that the suburb is developed and maintained to an appropriate standard.
• The trustee body will comprise of residents and the township developer. • All registered owners shall be members of the association. • A management company will be appointed to manage the affairs of the POA. • POAs have proven to add value to the property and are created for the benefit of the
residents.
Guidelines:
• Commercial guidelines (approved by the City of CT) have been prepared. The guidelines outline the façade, the character for the development of the Sandown Commercial Precinct. The purpose of the design guideline is to ensure that the incremental development of the precinct creates a harmonious and functional urban environment along Sandown Road, as part of the Sandown Development.
• Residential guidelines are managed by the developer. The single residential erven are zoned Single Residential Zone 1 (SR1) in terms of the City’s Integrated Zoning Scheme (IZS). The guidelines must be read together with the IZS. Similarly, the National Building Regulations apply.
• Sandown is aimed at the establishing opportunities for the security estate residential market and it is envisaged that the layout, landscaping and urban character of these estates will reflect this upmarket image.
• The high standard of top structure and development has already been set by the Parklands College (Sandown Campus) and it is encouraged that the design of the residential units should follow on with this principle.
• While the guidelines are not intended to prescribe a certain architectural style, “revivalist” or “period” architectural styles are not permitted. Instead a modern contemporary language in architecture is encouraged.
• In support of this built form, certain colours and building material are excluded. • A palate of suitable colours has been determined for the external colour treatment of the
top structure.
Review Committee:
• All plans for commercial, residential and other related uses must be submitted to the review committee, for approval, prior to their submission to the City.
• The review committee will ensure that the plans conform to the guidelines. • MLH Architects and Townplanners will be appointed as the review committee.
Greenbelt, Fynbos corridor, open space for recreation:
• Large land areas for the Fynbos Corridor, the Table View Nature Reserve and stormwater management will be ceded to the City as public assets and extension of the biodiversity network.
• This feature is a dominant element in the urban design framework of Sandown through the creation of a central linear open space system.
• Future public open space for recreation (sports fields), are situated immediately north of Sandown.
Roads and connecting services:
• MyCiti Bus collector route • The Sandown Road Link situated on the southern edge of Sandown provides a major road
link between the R27 (West Coast Road) and the N7 (National Road to Namibia). • N7 (southbound) to CT International Airport.
Timing and phases:
• The 1st phase of Sandown (Phase 1A) has been approved. The college together with the abutting single residential and commercial properties are situated in this phase. These commercial properties are now available for sale. Selling prices are from R1,400 / m².
• The phase 1B application has been submitted. Once approved, this will result in further single residential erven looping back to the first gateway into Sandown off Sandown Road.
• The Phase 2 application has been submitted. This application deals with the first gated village (positioned immediately north of the school). The launch of this village will be undertaken after approval, which approval is anticipated at the end of 2014 / beginning of 2015.
