Edenvale Property

Edenvale property is a great option for individuals who wish to purchase real estate in the Johannesburg property region, but don't want to live in the midst of the hustle and bustle that epitomizes this thriving metropolis. Situated on Gauteng's sought-after East Rand, Edenvale was originally called ‘Rietfontein' and started out as a mining settlement in 1903.

The name Edenvale pays homage to John Eden, who partly owned Rietfontein farm until it evolved into a town after the Anglo Boer war. By this time the farm had been surveyed and demarcated, to be sold to Cornish miners who worked at the Rietfontein mine. The settlement became bigger when neighbouring farms were sold to a dynamite factory and more workers were brought in from Austria, Germany and Italy, and eventually the settlement became a town.

Today, modern-day Edenvale is a renowned part of greater Johannesburg that is situated roughly halfway between the CBD and the O.R. Tambo International Airport. This location alone accounts for the popularity of Edenvale properties. Being centrally located in a city such as Johannesburg makes commuting far less of a headache and affords residents access to a variety of conveniences, while still enjoying the atmosphere of a residential environment. Areas of Edenvale that are particularly popular with families and young professionals include Eastleigh, Dowerglen and Edenglen.

Edenvale boasts a robust infrastructure that includes various shopping malls, such as Eden Meadows and Park Meadows, sport and fitness facilities, golf courses and schools. All of this makes for a great centrally-located suburb. Other sites of interest include:

»  The Ricardo Mulder Library, a fantastic venue with beautiful architecture and an exquisite selection of literature.

»  Horwoods Farm, a green area where families may enjoy picnics, rollerblading, biking or just a simple stroll to ease the tension after a long day's work (or play).

»  De Molen, a recently erected copy of the Zeldenrust Molen in Holland, where you may stop over for a cup of Joe and some freshly baked confectionary.
