Can I have pets?

We understand that pets form a major part of a lot of families and existing pets such as small dogs, cats & caged birds are welcome. It will be your responsibility at all times to ensure that your pets are well behaved and quiet.

Is there any stamp duty payable on my home?

No. As you are purchasing the home and leasing the land, no stamp duty is payable. This results in significant savings which can be directed to other lifestyle needs.

Of course! However, they must follow the same rules as the Kingsgate Village residents. We believe that it is important to lead an ongoing happy & healthy lifestyle.

What about my health & well being?
