The Project
An L at the corner of two avenues, an 83-metre tower
312 units for sale across 48,000 m² under construction in Ouaga 2000, facing the National Heroes Monument and the dome that closes its roundabout.
The vision
A district drawn as a single piece
On a 13,498 m² plot, ZAFARA PLAZZA raises 48,000 m² of built space. The complex sits as an L at the corner of two avenues, facing the domed monument that closes the roundabout. The blocks are white volumes stacked out of line: each level steps off the one below in a clean cantilever, and ribbon balconies run the full length of the façades. On the residential façades, timber brise-soleil filter the sun. On the roofs, planted terraces and photovoltaic panels. At ground level, an unbroken run of shopfronts under a single long canopy, palm trees along the street, café terraces. Six buildings for sale stand around the SONATUR head office — building S, seven floors and 6,100 m² of offices, which is not for sale. A, B, C and D carry 75 apartments, from the first floor to the sixth. Building E, the serviced-apartment block, holds 18 more and carries an oval infinity pool, cantilevered off its seventh floor. Building H stacks a conference centre, office floors and a panoramic restaurant on the seventh, then 175 hotel units from the eighth floor to the twentieth: 83 metres above Ouaga 2000. In the base of the buildings, 44 shops. The complex is under construction and selling off-plan (VEFA).
Those 312 units belong to three product families. In all three you are the full owner: land title and title deed — a property you pass on, resell, or pledge as security. Only the way it is operated changes. Residential: the T3 and T4 apartments in buildings A to D, from 114 to 214 m². The interiors: pale wood flooring in wide boards, a fitted kitchen open to the living room, worktop and splashback in veined white marble, full-height glazing onto the balcony. Ribbon balconies, secure parking, open-ground gardens. Live in it, rent it out yourself, or hand us the rental management. Hospitality: the serviced-apartment building E and the hotel in building H. You own a share of a working five-star hotel in the capital: ZAFARA PLAZZA SA fills the rooms, maintains the building and keeps the operating accounts. Units in buildings E and H pay you 10% net per year, guaranteed for ten years, under the management mandate. Commercial: the 44 shops, lined up under the ground-floor canopy, with hotel guests, office staff, 75 households and the audience of a 400-seat hall walking past the door — trade there yourself, hand us the rental management, or find your tenant and manage it yourself. Delivery times run from signature: 12 months for buildings A to D, 36 months for buildings E and H. Prices are shared at your appointment.
Etymology
What ZAFARA PLAZZA means
The name comes from three languages. Each one says something about the project.
Zafar
Arabic
Victory — that of a project carried through to the end.
Fare
Dioula
Solidity — that of the foundations and of a promise kept.
Plazza
international
The open square, facing the world.
Victory, solidity, openness: three words for a complex that takes the corner of two avenues, opposite the National Heroes Monument.
The concept
Four choices we do not compromise on
The urban oasis is not an image: it is square metres, trees and networks. Here is what the site will hold when the complex opens.
A quarter of the site will be green
3,375 m² of green space, 25% of the plot: open-ground gardens, planted patios and green roofs on the blocks. In the garden, a pool ringed with palm trees, sun loungers and white parasols opening like corollas: it is private, closed to the public, reserved for residents. Shade and quiet right outside your door, a step from the National Heroes Monument.
What powers the site
Photovoltaic panels cover part of the roofs, alongside the planted terraces. Secure power, water and fibre optics will serve the whole complex — homes, offices, hotel and shops. What keeps a district running is never visible, and never an afterthought.
Everything in one place
Six buildings for sale plus the SONATUR head office: apartments, serviced apartments, hotel, offices, 44 shops, a conference centre, a panoramic restaurant, a 400-seat hall, and the infinity pool of the hotel — oval, cantilevered off the seventh floor of building E. Your whole day fits on one site, on foot — and all that movement passes under the canopy, in front of the ground-floor shops.
What you see as you walk in
In the lobbies: a green marble floor, walls in veined beige stone, a ceiling of timber slats fanning out, recessed linear lighting and full-height glazing. The hotel entrance runs under a profiled canopy lit from below; on the drop-off, the project images place a gilded fan-shaped sculpture. The residences are entered through a porch carved with a geometric relief. At the top of the 20-storey tower, a five-star hotel with 175 units — standard rooms, junior suites and one presidential suite.
Location
Facing the National Heroes Monument
Ouaga 2000 is home to the presidency, the ministries, the embassies, the bank headquarters and the leading hotels. It is where the country’s business gets done.
ZAFARA PLAZZA is going up on the corner of two avenues, directly opposite the National Heroes Monument, minutes from the city centre and Donsin International Airport. The roundabout and its dome are the landmark: the address sticks after one telling. When the complex opens, your visitors park on site — 324 spaces in total, including the allocation for the SONATUR headquarters, around 270 of them outside that allocation. Project images are artist impressions; the specification delivered is set out in the descriptive schedule.
Partners
Who is building ZAFARA PLAZZA
Project lead — A project by the group
Reliance West Africa
A pan-African real estate and mining group based in Lomé, Reliance West Africa finances, develops and delivers ZAFARA PLAZZA — from the first stone to the handover of your keys. The same people, from your first appointment to your title deed.
Institutional partner — In partnership with
SONATUR
The National Urban Land Development Company is the Burkinabè State’s operator for urban development. It backs the project and will move its head office into the complex — building S, seven floors and 6,100 m² of offices, which is not for sale: a façade of vertical bays in pale stone, a deep roof overhang, a forecourt with a flagpole. The State is settling in on the site for good: it will be your neighbour.
