The District Planning and Building Commission has approved the construction of a new neighborhood in Caesarea, one of Israel's most exclusive communities, which is also home to Prime Minister Netanyahu's residence. This development marks the first time the town will feature high-density housing, including apartment buildings, alongside its characteristic private homes.
The plan, designated "Neighborhood 14," was initiated by the Caesarea Development Company and covers approximately 280 dunams (70 acres). It is slated for the northern part of the golf course area, near the existing golf club, and will be situated at the town's entrance from the Or Akiva interchange, west of Highway 2. The new neighborhood is designed to seamlessly connect with existing areas, Neighborhood 13 and Complex 7.
Out of the 735 housing units approved, approximately 475 will be in apartment buildings, with the remaining 260 units designated for duplex and four-family homes. The plan also includes the development of public buildings, commercial spaces, and open areas, aiming for an average density of six housing units per dunam. To address concerns about its proximity to Highway 2, the plan incorporates a buffer zone and acoustic regulations.
Developers emphasized that the project balances residential development with extensive public open spaces and community buildings, preserving the unique character of Caesarea and its proximity to the golf courses. The plan aligns with the vision for the town based on principles established in the master plan for 2035.
