Baobab Gardens

The development can be classified as an infill development, due to the remainder of Munnik Avenue to the east and west having already been developed.

The site is situated in close proximity to the West of the R81/N1 interchange; both are main arterial national roads, serving provincial and international traffic from Gauteng to Limpopo and the rest of Africa. The R81 off-ramp is accessible from a northerly and southerly direction by means of the interchange and provides for exceptional access to the site.

The land use of the properties situated around Baobab Gardens is mainly residential and commercial. The proposed development concept comprises 20 proclaimed commercial properties covering approximately 20 hectares of land. The majority of the available properties have already been developed and are occupied by household names such as: Toyota, BMW, Land Rover, Hino, CTM, Italtile, Sasol, MC Donald’s, House of Liquor, Tile Africa, Zebbies, Bathroom Bizarre, Furniture Mart and Builders Express.

The office component occupied by FNB, Anglo American, Vodacom, Zutari, Old Mutual.

The plot behind Toyota is soon to house amongst others Cash Build who will also take advantage of this strategic location and the convenience it offers to residents and visitors.

Veldspaat Street borders the site to the east, and De Wet Drive to the west. Veldspaat Street and Munnik Avenue are major corridor routes in Polokwane. It is the City of Polokwane’s intention to connect De Wet Drive with the R71. The R71, or Grobler Street, as it is also known, connects the CBD to the eastern suburbs, and to the Savannah Shopping Centre, which is the second-largest shopping centre after The Mall of the North in Polokwane. The location is further supported by its proximity to various educational and institutional developments and facilities. Within a distance of approximately 5 km, the new NetCare Hospital (currently under construction) is located. Once De Wet Drive is constructed the distance will reduce to 1km.
