Parktown North, Johannesburg

'The Parks' - the uber trendy and popular Johannesburg neighbourhoods of Parktown North, Parkview, Parkwood and Parkhurst that are in close proximity to major business hubs of Sandton and Rosebank.

The Parks offers an unparalleled lifestyle and sense of community and the warmth and friendliness of the people make the area unique. Some of the best coffee shops and restaurants are on your doorstep; as well as superb public spaces such as Zoo Lake and George Hay Park where you can enjoy a picnic or go for a run. There are world-class sporting facilities such as the Parkview Golf Course and art galleries, public libraries, religious centres and shopping malls. Events comprise of regular fairs and markets including the Parkview Christmas Market and Artist-Under-The-Sun at Zoo Lake.  Some of the top private and public schools in the country are located in the area and this helps to drive demand for property. 

The majority of the homes in the Parks date back to the early part of the last century and to the historic mining-town roots of our golden city.  People just can't get enough of those gleaming Oregon pine floors and pressed steel ceilings that are so evocative of a bygone era.
