Zengeza 5 is the modern frontier of the Zengeza node, featuring the Rockview extension where stands reach up to 350 square meters. This area attracts the upper tier of the township market, including the diaspora and successful entrepreneurs building bespoke family homes. The housing stock is noticeably more modern, often featuring tiled roofs and contemporary finishes. The strategic reality is that utility sovereignty is mandatory here; without a borehole, a property is practically a liability. Who lives here? Upwardly mobile professionals and families seeking a quieter residential atmosphere away from the core townships. For an investor, it is a prestige play within a high density framework, offering the best balance of reliable rental income and long term asset growth in Chitungwiza.
