This is not a diss but I actually noticed what you are talking about while watching property videos from Nigeria and Ghana specifically. Houses are just big but not that as appealing. Some developers have also not caught up to the open plan style, rooms are closed off and no flow.

The greatest thing about KZN durban is that it is green, there's an estate built now where people can grow their food and keep chickens etc, please also check the midlands KZN is green and beautiful
Beautiful. Everywhere you look outside the house you see greenery. This should be an inspiration to our fellow Nigerian and Ghanaian property developers.
I have always found South African Architectures incredibly amazing. I used to watch the Top Billing show till it ended and left a gap which I feel it has been filled by Steven Ndukwu. Steven you are incredible and i always find your content well thought out, the imagery is superb. You even inspired me to start a channel which is growing by the day. Keep up the good work.
@inspire houses, after I saw your comment I went straight to look for your channel. I was a big fan of top billing, I wonder why they stopped it hopefully you can fill in, all the best and keep the videos coming.
@@ThabsiMthethwa-Z. yeah Zimbali is overrated now..another underrated estate you should check out is Simbithi Eco-Estate, they also have some nice houses
I want to hire the architect to build a similar house for me in the states. It’s modern, clean, sophisticated….my style. All the homes you showcased in SA are lovely.
The nice thing about SA is that you find good Architecture even in the rural areas. My home village is Emkhambathini just outside Durban and the houses there are amazingly designed 👌🏾 We are humble people and like a natural design that incorporates nature. We don't like flashy gaudy designs. Even in the way we dress as South Africans is not gaudy or flashy. Natural beauty is where it's at ❤
I'm living in Gauteng because of work but my province is KZN that is where my heart is. I'm happy when you showcase the beauty of my province in Nigeria I think you call the province a state. I wish it was possible to subscribe twice to one channel I was going to subscribe again to this channel. keep walking Steve.
Namibian property is built by South African architects and property developers. Namibia used to be a part of South Africa, it only gained independence in 1990
I was born in Eastern Cape province( state). But my heart is in Kwazulu natal province (state). I grew up in KZN and the warm weather 🏖sure much better than the cold Eastern Cape ❄☃️
@@celimpilo8487 in comparison with Gauteng, KZN between Durban and Ondini is summer in winter. The cold weather of KZN is tolerable if you are from Gauteng because Gauteng can be very cold.
@@nnmzulu.401 lol I need you to visit Newcastle, Nquthu, Dundee and every place in North Western KZN bruh and the places along izintaba zokhahlamba. It gets just as cold
Comparing the real estate prices in Nigeria (which are beautiful houses btw) however a million dollars gets you a lot more in terms of architecture design , Land , value and quality in Durban .
Great video Steven! I’m soooo obsessed with the African Real Housewives franchise. I’ve never heard of Durban until I accidentally stumbled across an episode of RH of Durban! I was hooked because I’m about that posh glam life 🌍❤💰💎
More than the word beautiful. Enhanced by seaviews. It's a heaven on earth. Yes it's worth it. I know Ballito, it's a peaceful and still developing suburb. Sanity is found there ❤❤❤❤
Beautiful modern design mansion in Durban. I like the open design, living room, dining room, and kitchen. I like the floating stairs, and I like the face and diving man sculpture on the wall. I like the master bathroom, master bedroom, and master closet.
Awesome home! Definitely not the most luxurious here though. Love your videos Steven 👍 As a Durbanite for 40 years, servicing residential clients in the Greater Durban Metro, this is just among a few hundreds of the upper elite. This estate is still developing so still looks a bit bare. I know this home is a clean minimalist design, but it does seem to lack some character. Actually a pretty standard design in some estates. So in this elite, luxurious category, there's unimaginably luxurious homes out here. Literally like the stuff you see in movies. Fully automated homes. 180° sea views, city views, forest views or all of the above. Umhlanga, La Lucia, Ballito, Morningside, Hillcrest to name a few other areas. Push a button, all blinds are drawn in the house, wave a hand over the kitchen sink - and the tap disappears/ or re-appears, aagh it's just crazy. I remember as far back as 14 years ago, a clients house had capabilities similar to Siri or Alexa of today. Ask to play a song, dim the lights, lock the doors, turn on the TV. Sensor lights soon as you enter a room. Oh and apart from the luxury side fellow africans, we also have mainly middle to low income neighbourhoods. Us regular guys 😂👌

I think your country Nigeria and Ghana should learn from South Africa...with over priced real estates bad architecture compressed no space enough no garden.... without real estate regulators within in the countries, Very shameful.
It’s because these are western homes following western design rules and architected by Caucasians instead of the wannabe western nonsense in Nigeria and most of Africa
This property is very elegant and spacious,but it would be even nicer if curtains were installed in case you want to close off certain rooms at night for privacy, but I give the property 41/2 stars⭐⭐⭐⭐✨, thank you Steven for your 5 star journalism 😘💞✌🏾✊🏾😁🙏🏽👼🏾
