ZIMBABWE is set to benefit from the construction of the US$300 million Hills Luxury Golf Estate in Harare, which boasts of the first Professional Golfers’ Association-certified golf estate in Africa, coupled with residences where the general citizenry can live, work, shop and enjoy other amenities
President Mnangagwa yesterday presided over the project’s ground-breaking ceremony in Mabelreign, with the Estate set to be a major boost to the country’s tourism and sports industries once complete.
The project, which is being spearheaded by West Properties Private Limited in partnership with City of Harare, has more than 862 residential units and will accommodate around 4 310 people
In his remarks, President Mnangagwa said it was important that Zimbabweans continue taking-up the challenge to build the country, “brick-by-brick, and stone-upon- stone”.

“This is more important given that, as the descendants of the great Munhumutapa, we are builders who have the trait of hard honest work in our DNA,” he said.
