The Residence

This is why families
move to Joburg

Tucked away on one of Westcliff's most established streets, this farmhouse-style home gives you everything expat families hope to find when they arrive in Johannesburg: space, warmth, security, character and a garden your children will actually use. Homes like this rarely come up to rent. Let me show you around.

Walk through the front door and the house opens up around you. Generous reception rooms lead straight out to the garden, and large windows frame greenery from almost every angle. A relaxed family lounge has built-in desk space for the children, while a cosy winter lounge doubles as a quieter study when someone needs to concentrate.

The cottage-style kitchen is the heart of it all. Marble countertops, glass-fronted cabinetry, a statement red pendant light and a big farmhouse table in the middle. Slow breakfasts, homework and conversations that carry on long after dinner all happen here.

On the other side of the house sits a wood-panelled entertainment room with its own fireplace, a bar counter and a bay window looking out over the autumn trees. Dinner parties for the grown-ups now, a teenage games room later. A guest bathroom and a second, tree-lined study complete the ground floor.

Upstairs is calm. Every bedroom looks out onto leaves and natural light. The main suite sits away from the rest of the house, with its own fireplace, a private balcony over the treetops, double-glazed windows and a freestanding bath. You forget you are in central Joburg. The other three bedrooms are generous enough to grow with your children, and the flexible upstairs space works as a pyjama lounge, playroom, gym or home office, whatever this stage of family life asks for.

Outside, you have a heated pool, a floodlit tennis court, swings in the garden and a covered veranda to watch it all from. A staff cottage sits separately in the grounds. The house is elegant without being intimidating, comfortable without losing its style and secure enough for peace of mind from day one.

The Life You Live Here

A home that understands family life

A Kitchen Where Every Day Starts and Ends

The farmhouse table sits in the middle of the room for a reason. Breakfast before the school run, homework in the afternoon, a glass of wine while dinner cooks. Everyone ends up here.

A Garden Children Remember

A floodlit tennis court, a heated pool, swings under the trees and a covered veranda where you can sit with a coffee and watch them. Imaginations run free out here.

A Main Suite to Retreat To

A fireplace for winter evenings, a private balcony over the treetops, double-glazed windows and a freestanding bath. Close the door and it feels like a weekend in the countryside, not a weeknight in central Joburg.

A Room for the Grown-Ups

Wood panelling, a fireplace, a bar counter and a bay window onto the trees. Friday drinks with new friends now, and a games room your teenagers will claim as their own later.

Space to Work and Study

Two studies, built-in desk space in the family lounge and a flexible upstairs room. Two parents on calls and children doing homework, all without anyone tripping over each other.

Built for Real Family Logistics

A drop zone with hooks and shelves for school bags, a walk-in pantry and a staff cottage in the grounds. The practical details that make daily life in a new city easier from week one.

Westcliff, with the school run sorted
