The new Zoom town phenomenon is now moving inland, where it was initially predominantly restricted to coastal towns.
The advent of work from anywhere and the resultant migration of families within South Africa has not only had a ripple effect on Central Business Districts around the country. The new ‘zoom town’ phenomenon is also moving inland, where it was initially predominantly restricted to coastal towns.
“Meridian agents in smaller towns are seeing an increase in sales and permanent residency in some of South Africa’s smaller and most scenic towns. People are not only seeking out coastal locations, but also inland locations that offer outdoor, country living.” “The village still maintains its Cape vernacular architectural heritage, which has been well preserved. Greyton recently won the Kyknet ‘Dorp van die Jaar’ competition and is a popular weekend-breakaway destination,” said Goosen.Christoff Coetzer, Meridian Agent in Greyton, said he has seen a substantial increase in transactions in Greyton.
“In addition, Greyton offers good primary schooling in two government and one private school. Plans are also underway to develop a high school,” said Coetzer.
