The hottest lofts on Jozi’s block for rent – hurry!
REMEMBER TO TELL THEM YOU ARE A REPRESENT SUBSCRIBER TO WIN SOME POINTS. IF YOU HAVEN”T SUBSCRIBED BEST YOU DO!
And if you haven’t heard about Aengus yet watch this space as they launch the first of their major loft buildings in downtown Joburg. What we found particularly impressive about Richard, besides his warm charm and slick city vibe, is that when you talk to him and walk around watching him greet and shake hands and interact with the cleaner to the builder, you realise that it’s not just about making money. There’s something a lot more profound in Richard’s efforts to turn the city around. And let us point out now that this mover just turned 30
Richard ain’t no rich kid nor trust fund kid trying to make a quick buck on a fast-moving bandwagon – he grew up in Durbs with a father who was a playwrite and poet. Anyone with artistic parents will tell you that they were never financially secure however the crazy creative teachings. fires and spirits in their homes probably more than made up for it. He understands what it’s like to have an entrepreneurial nature but not to have the means to bring your dreams to life… That’s why his projects are not dealing with the upper class city resident… he’s going for the middle of the range young, fun and funky person who believes in the city but cannot afford to buy there – yet!
What’s important to Richard is that he gets the ‘right people’ into his flats, or should we call them lofts – they’re so gorgeous the word ‘flat’ does no justice… “Right People” to him are diverse people, positive people, young people, city people who are passionate about living an urban lifestyle, movers and shakers on their way up who want New York now. He wants trend-setters and fire-starters… young professionals already working in the city. He wants to encourage a culture of people walking, working and living in the city. In a nutshell he wants people who like being the first to do something fabulous but do it with soul.
So, if that description fits you, then read on, coz these apartments are affordable and amazing and will be snapped up before you get to push dial… Represent advises all Representers looking for their own pad to check this out – we’re even thinking of moving in! (rentals only by the way!)
LOFTS @ 66
Lofts at 66 is situated in the heart of Smal St mall bordering the legal and fashion districts. When we say in the heart, we mean that the porno 70’s reception area literally opens onto the mall… tres Tokyo… (and boy does that Mall rock shopaholics take note). BUT have no fear about security as the latest in fingerprint technology has been installed in the building and residents will only be able to enter using their fingerprint. All apartments will have buzzers to the front door system and residents will allow guests in at their own discretion however they will have to sign in and go through a fingerprint registration process as well.
@ 66 offers a range of lofts from 30m2 to 120m2… however take note that the thought that has gone into the design of the lofts means that even the 30m2 studios have a feeling of being spacious… no “swing a cat” scenario in these lofts… they are all immaculately finished with visionary style and design. The lofts all draw their finishes from one of four themes – Paris, New York, Tokyo and Jozi… they all have a fitted kitchen (nicely done – no gross marble) a bathroom with a modular plumbing system, huge windows and breathe-taking views on the city and stunning screed floors… oh yes – and a little more thought later – they all run on Pay-as-you-go electricity and water systems and they all have one big cupboard. Rentals range from R1750 to R4000 size and position dependent. CHIPILE!
On the ground floor there is a huge space that is going to be converted into a loungey chill zone for residents… but wait for it… there is also a big-screen cinema space that will be used for DSTV for the residents… imagine watching sports in there! There will also be a fully stocked shop for those night-time garage runs (remember the city is quiet at night at the moment.) There are 160 underground parking spaces with a boom-gate and guarded entrance…the retro lifts whisk you to one of the 15 floors.
In order to integrate the block into the lifestyle of the city, deals have been made with surrounding businesses where residents will receive major discounts ie Carlton gym, Nino’s in the city, movies etc
We don’t want to gush much more than this – you really need to see them for yourselves, so give the smooth salesman Simon a call – be nice to him – he gets to choose who moves in and who doesn’t… call Simon on 0721172137 or email him by clicking here.
Happy City living people! Invite us to your house-warming as a thank you for letting you know about this little gem that will certainly change your life…
