Enjoy the magnificent KZN Midlands with all the benefits of estate living. Gowrie Village is set in the heart of the central Midlands hub of Nottingham Road, known for its friendly rural community and small-village lifestyle.

Established in 2002, Gowrie is an upmarket, spacious, mixed-use estate. Developed to appeal to those seeking a country way of life, Gowrie Village features well-groomed properties with grassy verges, walkways, common green areas and wetlands where birdlife and wildlife thrive. This is a place where people can stroll with their dogs and children play, with no traffic noise or speeding vehicles. According to the Gowrie Village architectural code, there is an emphasis on 'harmony of form, colour and texture in a townscape of unified character', with stylish, manageable properties and quality design standards throughout.

All of the conveniences

A small retail centre within the estate offers all the essentials, including a doctor, chiropractor, physio and pharmacy, as well as a coffee shop, jeweller, fly-fishing shop, decor and Rain outlets. There are veterinary clinics and Postnet over the road with a well-stocked community library and the local farmers' hall, where the thriving Earth Route Market is 'the place to be' on Saturday mornings. The area is known for its top-quality schools, including Clifton, Michaelhouse and Treverton.

Gowrie Village is an ideal halfway point between Johannesburg and Durban with so much to do in the area including trout fishing, MTB trails, numerous spas and restaurants, plus the attractions of the Midlands Meander. This is a perfect place for a weekend getaway. For golfers, a highlight of the area is being able to enjoy numerous top notch golf courses, including Gowrie's own links-styled par 70, award-winning course.
