Parkhurst Properties For Sale | Sotheby’s International Realty

< Property Home

Parkhurst property offers a small piece of "a sunny place to raise children close to town", as quoted in 1903. Parkhurst was initially made up entirely of farmland surrounded by dust roads and solid, boring little government houses. What used to sell for 100 pounds per stand has now gone up in value immensely, with Parkhurst being one of the most sought after areas in Gauteng.

The boring little houses that were once used for soldiers returning from the war have since been restored. What now attracts people to the Parkhurst properties for sale are the pressed steel ceilings and wooden strip floors that add a wealth of character to each home.
