FINDING PEACE AND PURPOSE: MR. AND MRS. OLIVIER’S KLEINBAAI LIFESTYLE ESTATE JOURNEY

In this interview, we explore the inspiring story of Mr. and Mrs. Olivier, a couple who recently embarked on a significant life change by investing in Kleinbaai Lifestyle Estate. Their journey reflects a thoughtful pursuit of a better quality of life, blending retirement planning, investment strategy, and a deep appreciation for nature and community.

Kleinbaai Lifestyle Estate: To begin, when did you purchase your property at Kleinbaai Lifestyle Estate?

Mr. Olivier: We acquired our property in March 2024.

Kleinbaai Lifestyle Estate: And which unit did you choose?

Mrs. Olivier: We selected Plan B3, a two-bedroom, two-bathroom unit with a double garage and enclosed patio. It’s stand 2248, conveniently located close to the sea.

Kleinbaai Lifestyle Estate: What motivated you to invest in Kleinbaai Lifestyle Estate?

Mrs. Olivier: Following my Parkinson’s diagnosis in 2021, and the subsequent loss of my parents in 2023, we decided it was time for a change. We sought a better quality of life and viewed this purchase as both a retirement home and a sound investment.

Kleinbaai Lifestyle Estate: Where are you currently living?

Mr. Olivier: We reside in Eldoraigne, Centurion, Gauteng, in a gated community. I run my own business, auditing companies against international ISO standards for environmental, occupational health and safety, and quality management systems. My husband works 12-hour shifts at a private power station in Isando.

Kleinbaai Lifestyle Estate: What are you most looking forward to about living at Kleinbaai Lifestyle Estate?

Mrs. Olivier: We’ve been holidaying in Franskraal for several years, so we’re familiar with the area. I was searching for retirement options along the Whale Coast or West Coast. We’re eager to become involved in the community, contributing our skills and participating in conservation efforts.

Kleinbaai Lifestyle Estate: Any additional motivations you’d like to share regarding your investment?

Mrs. Olivier: The area’s beauty and tranquility were key factors. Access to good medical care was essential, and knowing about the excellent private hospital in Hermanus, and the new one in Gansbaai, solidified our decision. We desired a small, full-title retirement home near the sea, in a safe, peaceful environment surrounded by nature and friendly people. Kleinbaai Lifestyle Estate perfectly fits that description. Our previous visits to the penguin rescue and rehabilitation center, boat trips, and dining experiences at local restaurants reinforced our connection to the area and its conservation efforts, which are very important to us. Our plan is to move to Kleinbaai upon completion of our house, sell our property in Centurion, and continue working remotely. I’ll continue with my audits, while my husband plans to… well, maybe go fishing every day!

Through Mr. and Mrs. Olivier’s story, we see the compelling appeal of Kleinbaai Lifestyle Estate. It’s a place where thoughtful planning, a desire for a fulfilling retirement, and a commitment to community converge to create a truly enriching lifestyle.
