An exceptionally rare, large-scale development site positioned literally on the doorstep of the University of KwaZulu-Natal Westville Campus. At just ±400 m walking distance from the main security gate, this is one of the closest undeveloped parcels of this size still available – placing future residents within an effortless 4–5 minute stroll of lectures, libraries and campus life – genuinely closer than many existing on-campus residences with no major roads to cross – safe, direct pedestrian routes along quiet residential roads.
Perfectly nestled inside the booming student accommodation belt, surrounded by established digs and new developments. North-facing gentle to moderate slope – ideal for multi-level terraced designs that maximise natural light and ventilation
13 950 m2 of contiguous land offering scope for 800–1,000+ beds (subject to final approval under forthcoming GR2 zoning). Future-proof investment in one of Durban’s highest-demand, lowest-vacancy student nodes
This landmark project will set the new benchmark for off-campus living at UKZN Westville and deliver outstanding returns in a market where modern beds are in critically short supply.
Don’t miss the closest large-scale student development opportunity still available to UKZN Westville – it simply will not come again.
