Park Ridge Estate

Park Ridge Estate is a residential development under construction and on sale, presented by Capemay Properties Limited (80 Spintex Rd, Accra) on parkridgeestate.com. It combines townhouses and villas with a swimming pool, gym, tennis court, playground and clubhouse. The developer's site places the project in Tema, Greater Accra, describes the homes as selling off-plan, and lists 39 serviced plots arranged around a central clubhouse.

What the developer publishes about the project:

• Property types: townhouses and villas, plus serviced plots for buyers who want to build their own home.
• Plots: 39 serviced plots, of which 12 premium and 27 standard, according to Capemay Properties' developer page (capemaypropertiesgh.com/developments/parkridge-estate/).
• House plans: five named models, Harmony, Haven, Royal, Ariel and Vaso, with published floor areas (315 to 688.1 sqm) and 4 to 5 bedrooms depending on the model, per the same Capemay Properties developer page.
• Tenure: the developer states that homes are sold on a leasehold basis in line with Ghanaian property law, without stating the lease term.
• Build times: developer-built homes are described as typically completed within 18 months of construction starting, while self-build projects must be completed within five years, per the developer's FAQ (capemaypropertiesgh.com/developments/parkridge-estate/).

Prices, handover schedule, how many homes are already built and the exact lease term are not all published on the pages reviewed: parkridgeestate.com does show figures such as "Selling from $365,000.00" and "$10,000 To reserve" for Park Ridge, while the Capemay Properties developer page mentions "Starting at $465,000" and "$395,000". These amounts, presented on promotional material, are best confirmed in writing with the developer, through the contact form on parkridgeestate.com or by phone on +233 27 013 4449 (number listed on the Capemay Properties site).

For any buyer, the first thing to check is the land title and the lease term: in Ghana, a non-citizen can only hold a leasehold interest, capped at 50 years at any one time under the Land Act 2020 (Act 1036), as set out by the source sekhetnebufarms.com/can-foreigners-own-land-in-ghana. That rule applies to this development regardless of the developer. On title and lease matters, it is advisable to have any draft contract reviewed by a Ghanaian notary or lawyer before signing.
