Akasia (Orchards & Ext) - Gauteng
Akasia is the area located just to the North-West of central Pretoria. Approximately 10-15km's outside of Centurion, this diverse area is only a short drive from the Kruger House Museum, Pretoria Zoo, the South
African State Theatre and Loftus Versfeld Stadium. Akasia is the ideal
location for a family with multiple interests that don't necessarily
aline and includes the following suburbs within the area, The Orchards & Ext, Theresapark, Amandasig, Karenpark, Ninapark, Chantelle, Clarina and Akasia specific.
The Orchards & Ext in particular is seeing large residential development as there is a huge demand for first time buyers in the market, proving to be highly popular due to its affordability. Located on the far urban edge with lots of room for expansion, this area has been witness to quick development over the last five years. Whether buyers are looking at being closer to the Pretoria North property area or closer to the CBD, this area seems to cater to their needs. Most properties in the area have 2 or 3 bedrooms and are in the 400-500 thousand Rand property bracket. The Booysens area has significantly benefited from the flow from Orchards. A well established suburb, a large number of buyers in the area are public servants with families. For the buyers with a little more money to spend, there are 4 bedroom homes available in the area, although developers have been buying up such properties due to a gap in the market. A typical pattern is that the developers will demolish the existing home and subdivide land across a few plots, then build units and sell them in a similar price margin.
As the prices are market related, the newly developed units often find ready buyers.
I've highlighted a few properties available for sale in the area below:
This lovely 3 bedroom house, includes an open plan kitchen and lounge area and has 2 bathrooms. The main bedroom includes an en suit. It has a great yard and 1 parking place.

The last property I have to display (for now) is this very modern 3 bedroom home. 2 bathrooms, of which one is
en-suite, a lounge, open plan kitchen, and very neat and easy to maintain garden make this arguably a winner for the whole family. Classy and elegant.
