Let’s Have A Conversation

Take 15 to 30 minutes for a no-pressure conversation with us. We want to understand where you’re at, what you’re looking for, and see how we can best fit you into Ubuntu Eco Gardens. You don’t need to have everything figured out before speaking to us, that’s what the conversation is for.

Have a read through our website, explore the development and the homes, and when you’re ready, book a Discovery Call with us.

02Understand

You Purchase Your Home. The Land Is Held Under Lease.

You purchase your home. The land it stands on is held under a 99-year master lease, in accordance with Ghanaian land law, not sold to you separately. There is no public land-price table because land is not sold on its own. Upon full payment:

  • Ghanaian citizens receive a 98-year sublease
  • Non-Ghanaian citizens receive a 50-year sublease

Both include renewal options in accordance with applicable Ghanaian land legislation.

03Your Compound

Standard Plots, Combined To Fit Your Family

Every plot at Ubuntu Eco Gardens is 100 ft by 80 ft. You are not choosing from a menu of differently sized parcels of land.

  • Standard plots are 100 ft by 80 ft.
  • You may select multiple plots to form your compound, up to approximately one acre in total.
  • There is no standalone plot purchase without a home, and no purchase of additional land after your compound is set.
  • Your compound size is agreed as part of the home-purchase process, not sold to you as raw land beforehand.
04Secure Your Place

The £5,588 Founding Deposit

Paid before 25 September 2026, it secures your land allocation and your founding membership position. It is not the full cost of your home, that’s paid separately, in construction-phase payments starting February 2027.

The Founding Deposit

£5,588

Due Before 25 September 2026
What £5,588 Secures

You are not simply buying a house. You are joining a planned community, and your deposit is credited toward your home purchase and land allocation, it is not an additional charge on top.

  • Your founding-member position, and the benefits that come with it.
  • Your land allocation, held together with its plot as one complete residential package under Ghana's established long-term leasehold system, the same structure used across residential property nationwide.
  • The paperwork and documentation associated with your land allocation and membership.
  • Your share of the community's infrastructure: roads and access infrastructure, community buildings and shared facilities.
  • The ability to select your preferred plot or plots within the community.
  • Full credit toward the purchase price of your home and land allocation, under the agreed purchase structure.
  • A 7-day cooling-off period, during which it can be withdrawn and refunded in full.
Good To Know
  • It is not the full cost of your home. Home construction payments follow separately, starting February 2027, according to the agreed construction phases.
  • It must be paid before 25 September 2026 to secure your place in this founding cohort.
  • Outside the 7-day cooling-off period, it is refundable only if the project does not proceed.
Then, Home Construction

Paid In Phases, From February 2027

The £5,588 deposit secures your land allocation and founding membership position, it does not cover the cost of building your home. The first home construction payment is due in February 2027, and further payments follow according to the agreed construction phases as your home is built.

The Cedar, our smallest home, starts from £25,726.

Larger models are priced higher, our exact home price depends on the model, plot and finishes you choose. Building in Ghana means different construction costs than markets like the UK, US or Europe, which is reflected in our pricing.

Once home construction payments begin in February 2027, Founders receive weekly updates through the members’ portal showing the progress of their home construction, with updates from their dedicated project lead. Founders also have ongoing support throughout the process, whether through text messages or phone calls.
