Ebony Courts

Ebony Courts is one product of the real estate business of NCGC in Kampala Uganda. The completed development of Ebony Courts consists of 64 apartments constructed over 8 blocks and 26 villas and is almost entirely sold out. With its undulating landscape, minimart, gym, swimming pool, jogging path, tennis and basketball courts Ebony Courts is a landmark and iconic development, and showed how public realm, community facilities, retail and commercial spaces can be incorporated to create successful new communities..

“It’s not often that I come home in the middle of the day. But when I do my attention is always drawn to the vivid beauty of the open green spaces and my body relaxes from the tension of the traffic and all the cares of a daily working day. This is the fresh and authentic environment that has been home for the last three years and yet I still marvel at it every once in a while. The atmosphere is cosy, homely, yet vibrant with life as the children play in the expansive well equipped playgrounds, and with the stunning diverse bird families among the green shrubs and I do love my occasional swim in the pool, a walk in the dust free paved street ways, and to crown it all the quiet peaceful nights. This undoubtedly, is the perfect place to call HOME.”
— Lindsay (Ebony Courts Homeowner)
Ebony Courts is really one of a kind. From the 24/7 security that makes one feel secure at all times, to the children’s facilities that occupy them, this is a place I do feel safe and at home, and would recommend it to anyone else.
— Aziza (Ebony Courts Tenant)

Ebony Villas

Ebony Villas is another completed and fully sold out development in the portfolio of NCGC. It is a self-contained, intimate estate comprising of 23 terraced villas fitted out to high specifications. The development was very quickly sold out, and due to its success the project stimulated the transformation of the surrounding Sissa area and inspired NCGC to develop the unique set of principles that ensures that we continually create homes in cohesive and sustainable neighborhoods where people will want to live and stay.

“The house themselves are lovely, but you don’t just get a house when you come here… There’s actually a feeling that neighbors are speaking to each other, and I think a lot of that comes from the design”
— Carol (Ebony Villas Homeowner)
