With the growing number of private real estate developers, especially in the central Region, Damascas has unveiled a new concept in Uganda.
A gated community is a type of residential community that is enclosed with walls or fences and guarded. This form of residential community is best known for its organized layout and rules, quiet life with access to all the modern amenities.
Usually, when we hear of gated communities, we associate them with affluence, wealth or status, but there are wide varieties of gated communities that could be established in Uganda which can offer moderate pricing and tangible benefits.
Benefits of Living in a Gated Community
Residing in a gated community brings you some benefits some of which include
1. Safety and security is not an issue:
In general, most people feel a sense of extra protection and wellbeing from living in a gated community. There are many benefits of living in a gated community but security and safety is perhaps the most obvious reason. Compared to non-gated communities or standalone houses where crimes like home invasion and burglary are a concern, gated communities offer controlled entry and well-guarded surroundings. These communities offer fixed entry and exit points with CCTV cameras, surveillance and so on, reducing greatly the risk of intruders trolling the neighborhood.
2. Sense of community and association
Gated communities elicit a sense of community among residents. These communities have controlled communal amenities creating avenues for residents to interact with each other and building a sense of familiarity and trust among themselves. Some of these communities also organize occasional events and parties for residents to gather and enjoy. In general, there is a sort of unspoken understanding between residents. The sense of community also gives an extra layer of security to residents because everyone is each other’s keeper.
3. Greater levels of privacy
Peace is a huge benefit to living in a gated community. You can go about your daily life with minimal interruptions from the outside world. The community restricts outsiders and trespassers from entering, giving your exclusive privacy in your own space. It is ideal for utmost privacy that is one of the reasons many influential and high profile people prefer living in gated communities.
4. Property Value is more.
The cost of properties in gated communities indeed tends to be higher than those in non-gated communities. While this is not the case for all gated communities, it is mitigated by better property values even during periods of market fluctuations. The value is even greater when it is from a trusted developer like Damascas. If you decide to sell your property in a gated community or rent it out, you can get more from it as compared to non-gated communities. Owning a property in a gated community is simply a good investment.
5. Integrated Lifestyle
Part of the benefit of living in a gated community is the well-integrated lifestyle it comes with is such as shared amenities. Most gated communities come with facilities like a gym, swimming pool, playground, clubhouse, tennis courts and others. These facilities can be enjoyed by residents freely which they would otherwise cost a lot of money to access. Many of these gated communities also emphasize healthy living hence developing eco-friendly green communities and energy-efficient home designs. Overall, residents in gated communities get to enjoy the quality of life.
6. Safe Place for Children
For families with kids, one of the advantages of living in a gated community is their kid’s safety. The safety, security and sense of community within the gated community are very good for children as they explore and play outdoors and you wouldn’t need to worry about kids bumping into strangers. With the community not open to traffic and fast-moving vehicles, kids are protected from traffic accidents within the community. As a parent, you have a sense of peace and comfortability knowing your child is safe at home.
