Pretoria is the capital city of South Africa and is located in the thriving province of Gauteng. Read on for a snapshot of what you can experience living in one of Pretoria's stunning properties.
A brief history of the area
Pretoria was founded in 1855. A longstanding symbol of the hard work that went into achieving South Africa's democracy, it became the administrative capital of the country in 1910 before it was awarded city status in 1931. With historic buildings and landmarks, Pretoria is one of the key cities in South Africa's tapestry.
Distance from key points (Airport/CBD)
The travelling time from Pretoria to OR Tambo International Airport is approximately 43 minutes (51,8 km) via the R21. Travelling to Lanseria Airport will take you approximately 50 minutes (59,8 km) via Ben Schoeman Freeway or the N1/N14. These times are dependent on traffic.
Climate
The subtropical climate of Pretoria works well to serve the city's lush parks and growing gardens. With temperatures soaring to highs of 34°C during summer months, the city handles its heat with ease. The dryness of Gauteng can mostly be felt during winter months when temperatures drop to between 4°C-20°C. The weather is ideal for those who love exercising outdoors, enjoying picnics or taking a stroll through one of Pretoria's many monuments.
Schools in the area
Pretoria is well known for having some of the best tertiary institutions in the country. The University of Pretoria is a multi-campus facility that focuses on public research and is highly regarded for its programs. Parents can rest assured that even from the early stages, their children will be given every opportunity to shine academically. Select from Bright Beginnings Pre-School, Piccoli Nursery School, Mama Goose Boutique Pre-School, Arcadia Primary School, Lynwood Ridge Primary School, Brooklyn Primary School, Pretoria Secondary School, The Glen High School, Willowridge High School and more.

Select from Mediclinic Medforum Hospital, Kilnerpark Day Hospital, Life Brooklyn Day Hospital, Louis Pasteur Private Hospital, Mediclinic Muelmed Hospital and Princes Park Clinic to name a few. There are also a number of General Practitioners and pharmacies, as well as veterinarians in the area to see to your pets.
Shopping centres
With Pretoria being a hop, skip and jump away from the shopping mecca that is Johannesburg, the city holds its own with impressive malls and specialty stores. Shoppers are encouraged to visit Sunnypark Shopping Centre, Woodlands Boulevard Shopping Centre, Brooklyn Mall, Hatfield Plaza Shopping Centre, Lynnridge Mall, Parkview Shopping Centre and a number of grocery and convenience stores.
Restaurants
The Hazel Food Market is Pretoria's answer to fresh, delicious, wholesome food and produce at bargain prices. This farmer's market has a variety of stalls that sell nostalgic treats such as koeksusters, croquettes, homemade vinegarettes and more. The market operates from 378 Queens Crescent, Lynwood and is open for trade every Saturday.
Fermier Restaurant caters to those who have a taste for fine dining accompanied by a luxurious ambience. The eatery serves meals that are made with sustainable ingredients and plated to perfection. It's the ideal place to celebrate a special occasion or to enjoy a sophisticated time out.
Special attractions
The Voortrekker Monument is a granite structure that is symbolic of the journey the Voortrekkers embarked on when they left the Cape Colony between 1835-1854. It has since been declared a National Heritage Site and is part of a beautiful nature reserve where you can spend your day learning about history and enjoying the sunny outdoors.
