Eagleton Apartments

Eagleton Apartments is a 36-unit sectional title complex in Carlswald, Midrand, South Africa. It has two and three bedroom apartments. It was developed by Foce Properties (Foce Property Investments), whose website lists it as a finished project: "Completed Foce Development".

Location

According to the developer, the complex is in central Midrand, just off New Road. It is close to retail, health and educational facilities. The official page does not name these facilities or give distances. To find out which schools, clinics or shopping centres are nearest, and how long the trips take, check locally or ask the agent handling a unit in the complex. Visiting the area at different times of day can also give a clearer idea of traffic on New Road and of the daily routine around the complex.

Who built it

The developer is Foce Properties, whose website shows its completed projects in Midrand. The name Umthunzi, which sometimes appears next to this listing, refers to other projects by the same developer (Umthunzi Views, Umthunzi Valley, Umthunzi Gardens). It is not the developer, and it is not another name for Eagleton Apartments.

Features listed by the developer

• A garage included with each unit.
• One Kwikot heat pump per unit, with no shared systems.
• High speed fibre internet wired to each unit.
• Prepaid electricity meters.
• A kitchen with a multifunction oven, a five burner gas stove and white quartz counters.
• Large balconies, north facing units and high ceilings.
• Large gardens for ground floor units.
• DSTV (satellite TV) points in the lounge and main bedroom.
• A clubhouse and pool area.

The developer also mentions the views and "tight security", but does not say how security works (guards, hours, access control). Check these points on a viewing or with the body corporate. During a viewing, it is also worth checking that the fittings listed above are still in place and in working order, since some may have been replaced or changed by owners since completion.

What is not published

The official page gives no prices, no floor areas, no completion date and no monthly levy amounts. It also does not say whether any units are still available from the developer. Because the complex is listed as completed, units in Eagleton Apartments are now usually sold or let by private owners or estate agents. Prices and terms depend on each listing. Before making an offer, ask the seller or agent to confirm the price, the floor area and the current levy in writing.

Who to ask

• For the history of the development and its original specifications: Foce Properties, through the reception contact on its website ([email protected], +27 11 318 0920).
• For the price, size and condition of a specific unit: the agent or owner selling or letting it. Ask for the sectional plan and the title deed.
• For monthly levies, the complex rules and how security is organised: the body corporate or the complex's managing agent. They can also confirm whether the levies on a given unit are paid up to date.

Prices are in South African rand (ZAR). This development is outside the WAEMU (UEMOA) zone. Buying and owning a unit here falls under South African law, not the law of the West African countries Imonga covers.
