Classical Charm Beneath the Jacarandas
Set along one of Greenside’s most beautiful jacaranda-lined streets, this home captures the quiet, tree-canopied serenity that defines Johannesburg’s finest old suburbs. The street feels tucked away from the rush of the city — a peaceful pocket where birdsong replaces traffic noise, and dappled sunlight filters through purple blooms in spring.
A paved concrete garden path leads you through a mature, landscaped garden — flat lawn underfoot, ideal for children or pets, and a sparkling swimming pool catching the afternoon light. The whitewashed façade, accented by a red-tiled roof, gives the home a timeless, classical charm that feels instantly welcoming.
The covered patio, framed by leafy views of the garden, is the perfect setting for relaxed weekend breakfasts or long summer lunches by the pool. From here, the solid front door opens into an inviting entrance hall — a space that gently divides the living areas from the bedroom wing, ensuring both flow and privacy.
To the right, a sun-filled lounge with large picture windows frames the garden like a living artwork. A wood fireplace anchors the room, creating a sense of warmth and comfort. Adjacent to the lounge, the dining room offers space for both family gatherings and elegant dinners, seamlessly connecting to a spacious kitchen. Here, a generous breakfast nook invites casual moments, while the separate scullery and laundry area keep day-to-day living effortlessly organised.
A private study, quietly tucked away, provides an ideal work-from-home space or can easily be reimagined as a guest suite.
Down the passage lie three comfortable bedrooms, each with tranquil garden views. The main bedroom enjoys an en-suite bathroom, while the remaining two share a well-appointed family bathroom — all designed with understated elegance and practical ease.
Step outside to the backyard and you’ll discover yet more versatility. A plumbed storeroom, currently used as a laundry, adds functional convenience. Beyond this, a private self-contained cottage offers an exceptional bonus — complete with its own entrance from the driveway, built-in cupboards, and a private bathroom. Whether used as a studio, consultation room, or rental flatlet, it offers wonderful potential for additional income or multi-generational living.
The property is completed by a double garage, secure off-street parking, and established garden surrounds that make every corner of this home feel private, peaceful, and distinctly Greenside.
