Cardinal Properties has announced steady progress at Northbrook, its residential stand development in Bulawayo, with sewer excavation for Phase 1 now fully complete, pipe laying under way and road subgrade construction in progress.
Servicing Moves Forward
The company’s servicing update lists three milestones. Phase 1 sewer excavation is 100% complete, sewer pipes are now being laid, and construction of the road subgrade is in progress.
These works form the backbone of any residential development. Sewer reticulation and roads are typically among the first and most important stages of servicing, since they prepare the ground for the surfaced roads, water connections and other utilities that follow. For buyers, visible progress on this infrastructure is often a reassuring sign that a project is being delivered.
Location and Access
Northbrook is located about 11 km from Bulawayo’s central business district along Airport Road. The site offers a balance between access to the city’s commercial centre and the more spacious setting that many homebuyers and investors look for on the urban edge.
Stands on Terms
Residential stands at Northbrook are available on terms, with prices starting at USD $9,500. Buying stands on instalments is a popular route for many Zimbabweans seeking to own land and build progressively, and a starting price at that level positions the development as accessible to a broad range of buyers.
Cardinal Properties says the development is suited to those wishing to build their dream home as well as those looking to secure a commercial footprint, suggesting a mix of residential and business uses.
A Growing Corridor
Airport Road has been a focus of property interest in Bulawayo, as buyers look for serviced land outside the congested city centre. Developments that deliver infrastructure ahead of construction can help ease the path for homeowners, who are often wary of buying land in areas where services are only promised.
Looking Ahead
“Whether you’re looking to build your dream home or secure a commercial footprint, Northbrook is the destination,” the company said in its announcement.
The update did not give the total number of stands, stand sizes, the completion date for servicing or the timeline for later phases. Interested buyers are encouraged to contact Cardinal Properties directly for details on available stands, payment terms and the project schedule.
With the sewer trenches dug, pipes going in and roadworks beginning, Northbrook is moving from a plot of land to a serviced community.
