Area Profiles

Located near Pretoria North, Florauna presents itself as a fairly exclusive suburb - small, with limited opportunities to purchase, but if you do find something then it is sure to be a lovely life-style option going forward.  One may also consider extending this area preference to the surrounding suburbs of Theresapark, Ninapark and Amandasig, all of which are in close location to Florauna. Florauna, and its surrounding suburbs, are fairly recent developments which means that accommodation is generally still in good condition, allowing prospective buyers to enjoy the luxury of moving straight in without the need for major renovations.  Designs come in varying...

Garsfontein, a well established middle-class suburb of Pretoria East holds the draw-card of the perfect location to all amenities, major access routes, entertainment facilities and attractions that its greater surrounds have to offer. Garsfontein also hosts one of Pretoria's most highly acclaimed Afrikaans schools, Hoërskool Garsfontein. Intertwined with an abundance of natural features and age-old trees, Garsfontein stands are large with a fine blend of both modern and more modestly designed homes, free-standing and complexes. Garsfontein offers an overwhelming sense of calm and underlying safety, with particularly well-organised community participation and...

Gezina lies within the greater Moot area, north east of Pretoria's city centre and en-route to the mountain pass leading toward Pretoria North.  It is cradled between the Magaliesberg mountain range on its northern side and Meintjies Kop - upon which the Union Buildings proudly stand - just a few blocks down south. This old and very developed suburb, proportionately, probably serves more as a business area as opposed to a suburban living area.  However, if one needs super quick and easy access into the city centre, major industrial areas such as Rosslyn and even academic institutions such as the Steve Biko Academic Hospital or The Onderstepoort Academic Veterinary...

Green Acres Estate is one of a few highly sought-after, higher-end security estates located within the Montana Tuine area.  It is a newly developed security estate with a selection of modern styled houses.  Properties are new, still well maintained with beautifully manicured gardens, while the greater surrounding environment offers a tranquil, almost lowveld setting.  The benefits that come with the security estate concept contribute greatly to a comfortable and safer lifestyle, an especially enticing homing option for young families and retirees alike with the added benefit of its convenient location to schools, medical facilities, day-to-day amenities as well as the...

Groenkloof may very well be described as one of the most beautiful suburbs of Pretoria, added to which, it enjoys a superb location and access to the best of what Pretoria has to offer.  Perhaps it's greatest attraction however is the lush band of greenery that borders its southern side as it lies against the Groenkloof Nature Reserve as well as the recently rehabilitated Klapperkop Hill and Fountains Valley (just off Nelson Mandela Drive).  This band of greenery continues to flow from Groenkloof through to its neighbouring suburbs such as Nieuw Muckleneuk, Brooklyn and Waterkloof. Groenkloof is shrouded in history and finds itself at the foothills of the four...

Kilner Park shares the same greenbelt, to be found at the foothill of the Magaliesberg ridge, that the Pretoria National Botanical Gardens is set along.  In addition, it also lies alongside the Colbyn Wetlands, all of which makes it a particularly beautiful, serene area.  Kilner Park is further bisected by the Hartebeesspruit, which, one can imagine, acts as a wonderful attraction for prolific bird-life.  All-in-all it goes without saying that these features create a haven of calm even though the suburb is surround by a fairly busy environment. An old, well-established, middle-class residential area which falls within the greater "Moot" area, Kilner Park brings...

Magalieskruin, as the name may suggest, finds itself at the foothills on the northern side of the Magaliesberg Mountain range, an area largely know as Pretoria North.  It is both well-developed and well-located to most amenities sought-after both young and old, first-time home owners, families who need easy access to anything and everything and those in retirement looking for a quiet and secure environment.  With a wide selection of both older and more modern-styled properties and prices ranging from fairly modest to the more luxurious, Magalieskruin certainly enjoys a balanced blend of residents.  Properties include townhouse complexes, simplexes and...

Mayville, which is one of The Moot suburbs, lies at the very foot of the Magaliesberg mountain range and within easy range to the Wonderboom Nature Reserve.  It is a middle-class and older suburb with varying landscapes and activities surrounding it. On its northern border is the ridge of the Magaliesberg, to the east is the rather industrious Steve Biko Road with vast amounts of car sales, panel-beating, mechanic and car part sales businesses, while to the south lies the Life Eugene Marais Hospital and to the west Parktown Estate and beyond that is the M1 which leads toward Pretoria West. Houses are generally older in style and often need a fair amount of...

Montana Park, one of the newer suburbs of Pretoria North, has become a much sought-after residential suburb in very recent times.  Lying at the foothills of the Magaliesberg Mountain range, its major attractions are its peaceful character, modern appearance, manicured gardens and its strategically well-placed location to most amenities, access routes as well as the Pretoria city centre. Montana Park has sprouted as a lively neighbourhood comprising mostly younger to middle-aged people, first time home-owners and families with children, who seek convenience, security and - seemingly - a sense of modern flair in their day-to-day activities.  Catering for a range of...

Montana Tuine is a predominantly lifestyle-filled, estate-developed area located within Pretoria North. The security and privacy features offered by such developments are becoming widely sought-after and cater to a wide blend of home-owners. Within Montana Tuine, the choices are wide and inviting, including exclusive estates aimed at high-income earners such as Zambezi Country Estate, middle income-friendly developments such as the Bougainvilla Estate and entry-level security complexes and townhouses suited to the younger resident such as Green Acres Estate and Rose Acres Estate. Another resident type that Montana Tuine is especially well suited to is the older...
