Garsfontein, Pretoria

 Garsfontein,  Pretoria
Overview Attractions Properties Branches

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 is certainly the perfect environment for most resident types and needs. Garsfontein's neighbours include Faerie Glen, Menlyn, Olympus, Mooikloof Equestrian Estate, Woodhill Golf Estate and Constantia Park.

CLIMATE:

Garsfontein enjoys a sub-tropical climate with warm to hot summer days, often accompanied by late afternoon summer showers. Winter lasts for fewer months, receives no rains, and may see early morning temperatures plummet to low single digits while it generally becomes quite comfortable later in the day. Cold morning temperatures do allow for frost, but Garsfontein gardens are mostly protected under an umbrella of greenery and tree-lined streets.

MAIN ACCESS ROUTES:

Garsfontein is bordered by three major thoroughfares leading to and from Pretoria East. On the northern side is Atterbury Road and on the southern side is Garsfontein Road, both of which lead to the N1 Highway, while Solomon Mahlangu Road lies to the east and leads to the N4 Highway. Access to all main roads and highways are merely a few minutes' drive away.
