Explore The Pines Retail Hub at Conradie Park
The Pines, a convenience retail zone with an aspirational edge, will be one of Conradie Park’s final achievements – helping to put this mixed-use housing development head and shoulders above anything comparable in South Africa.
Developed by Concor, the 22 hectare Conradie Park project has been under construction since 2019, and is bringing an added sense of community to the Pinelands area of Cape Town. According to Mark Schonrock, Property Development Executive at Concor, the quality of the housing units and the project’s carefully designed features and landscape is unmatched.
“An important element of the Conradie Park concept is its mixed-use zoning, ensuring that residents will have easy access to key retail outlets within walking distance of their homes,” says Schonrock. “At the same time, The Pines complex has convenient parking for shoppers adding to the amenities available to the local community.”
There will be 13,000 m2 of retail space at The Pines, he explains, including a supermarket as well as fast foods, fashion and service outlets. Another 2,200 m2 will be dedicated to co-working space and play areas. To accommodate car-owning shoppers, there will be 230 ground level parking spaces in front of the centre, as well as 330 roof top covered parking bays on the first floor of the complex.
“In line with our conceptual design to make the most of the available space at Conradie Park, the parking arrangement will be counter-cyclical,” he says. “During the day, the parking serves mainly the retail area, while overnight there is availability for the residents of the adjacent blocks.”
The Pines is ideally placed for the five residential buildings, each of which will be four or five storeys high – to be constructed around the retail area. Units in four of the five blocks will be available to the open market, while one of the blocks will be designated for first-time home buyers who are recipients of the Finance Linked Individual Subsidy Programme (FLISP), a government subsidy promoting affordable home ownership.
The five blocks will add over 850 living units to the Conradie Park community. He adds that the location of The Pines complex on the edge of the development also gives it attractive views of Devil’s Peak and Lion’s Head the mesmerising Cape Town sunset.
“Our choice of retail tenants will ensure that The Pines delivers a differential offering, providing some variety to what the area already offers to residents,” says Schonrock. Construction work on The Pines has started with completion expected in the early months of 2026.
