A Home Built for Family, Faith & a Life Well Lived — Emmarentia
6 Bedrooms | Office | Pool | Solar | Borehole | Staff Quarters
For families where home is more than just a place to sleep — it’s where memories are made, where guests are always welcome, and where there’s always room at the table — this is the one.
Nestled in the heart of Emmarentia, one of Johannesburg’s most peaceful and sought-after suburbs, this expansive farmhouse-style home offers the space, privacy and warmth that larger families truly need. With Emmarentia Dam and Rose Garden just around the corner, Donald Gordon Hospital nearby, excellent schools in close proximity, and restaurants and shops easily accessible, the location checks every box.
A home that breathes hospitality.
The open-plan kitchen with breakfast area, a generous lounge anchored by a warming fireplace — the kind of space that naturally draws family together, whether it’s a casual weeknight or a house full of guests after. Stacking doors open the living area onto a covered patio that spills out into the garden, making it effortless to host large gatherings, family braais or a spread under the open sky.
A dedicated indoor play area keeps the younger children close and entertained while the adults gather — because in a home like this, everyone should feel at ease.
The farmhouse-style wraparound balcony at the front of the home adds character and charm, a quiet spot to sit, reflect, and enjoy the neighbourhood’s gentle pace.
Space for every member of the family.
Downstairs offers a private bedroom and a dedicated office — ideal for working from home or accommodating elderly parents or in-laws with ease and dignity. A security gate leads upstairs to five further well-sized bedrooms, all filled with natural light. The main bedroom is a sanctuary in every sense — en suite with a walk-in cupboard, a private balcony overlooking the pool, and a comfortable sitting area for those early mornings with a cup of tea.
An outdoor space made for celebration.
Open lawns, water features and a jungle gym make the garden a place where children thrive. The neatly decked pool area and flat lawn spaces are perfect for large family gatherings — from weekend lunches to celebrations with the extended family. A working vegetable garden at the back of the property is a thoughtful bonus for families who value fresh, home-grown produce.
Self-sufficient and secure.
This is a home designed for a full, rich family life — spacious enough for everyone, secure enough for peace of mind, and warm enough to feel like home from the very first day.
