Valued at <strong>R21.73 million<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>No. 7 Saxonwold Drive (Erf 297): A 1,720 m\u00b2, hotel-like mansion with 17 en-suite bedrooms, a cinema, beauty salon, and triple-volume foyer. Valued at <strong>R36.86 million<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>No. 3 Saxonwold Drive (Erf 295): A 3,000 m\u00b2 single-storey home with three bedrooms, a garage, and staff quarters. Valued at <strong>R5.54 million<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Park Village Auctions, only No. 3 Saxonwold Drive saw a successful public bid, fetching <strong>R3.3 million<\/strong> at auction, subject to confirmation. This is R2.2 million, or <strong>40% off its listed value price.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The group said that this was above expectations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the other two properties did not see success at auction, with only their contents being sold. No. 5 Saxonwold&#8217;s contents sold for R100,000, and No. 7&#8217;s contents sold for R60,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The auctioneers said that the properties were &#8220;met with understandable hesitation&#8221;, particularly with the municipal valuations and steep rates and taxes attached.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We had a great deal of interest leading up to the auction, but given the complexity and uniqueness of these properties, it&#8217;s not unusual for a transaction of this nature to take more time,&#8221; it said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Park Village Auctions said the business rescue practitioners will likely make the properties available by private tender, which will also provide more anonymity for buyers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We will remain in discussions with the interested parties as we progress to the next phase. We are confident that we will realise these properties at realistic market rates,&#8221; it said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">No 3 Saxonwold Drive &#8211; Sold for R3.3 million <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a  data-lightbox=\"post-image\" href=\"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Gupta-compound-2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Gupta-compound-2-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-829208\" srcset=\"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Gupta-compound-2-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Gupta-compound-2-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Gupta-compound-2-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Gupta-compound-2.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">3 Saxonwold Drive.
