Category Suburb News
When asked why they love their hometown, residents of Akasia will tell you things like "there's a strong community feel", "it's the perfect blend of urban and rural" and "there are great homes at low prices". The CSi Property Group takes a closer look at Akasia and everything it has to offer its residents.
- The variety of quiet residential suburbs and a laid-back way of life
If you've heard people talking about how they love their home in Amandasig, Karenpark, The Orchards, Chantelle, Tosslyn, Heatherview or Heatherdale, then you've been hearing about why Akasia is such a great place to live. Each of these suburbs has its own unique amenities but they have lots in common: a family-orientated way of life, beautiful surroundings and an appealing countryside ambience.
- Outstanding range of affordable properties
A quick glance through the properties for sale and to rent in Akasia will give you a good indication of why people love living here: there's just so much choice! Whether you want a freestanding house, a simplex or an apartment, you'll find it in Akasia. Many Akasia homes are ensconced in the safety of estates and complexes, where children can ride their bikes and everyone can enjoy an idyllic way of life. An added bonus is that property in Akasia is far more affordable than in many other parts of South Africa. For example, in 2024 it's still entirely possible to rent a four-bedroom house in Akasia's Platinum Manor Security Estate for less than R10 000 per month. If you're looking to rent an apartment, your home could cost you less than R5 000 per month.
- Plenty to do close to home
If you're a keen golfer, a child at heart or an outdoor enthusiast, you'll make a great choice by calling Akasia your home. For golfers, having the Akasia Golf Club just around the corner will be a real treat. This 18-hole golf experience boasts excellent greens and year-round green kikuyu fairways. The course has a peaceful ambience, thanks to a river winding through the length of the course, abundant birdlife and antelope. There's a golf shop, a driving range and caddies for hire to create a golfing experience that's well above par.
When the kids - or the young-at-heart adults - are looking for something fun to do over the weekend, Crystal Sun Waterpark is a great place to go. Enjoy a day of fun in the sun in the pool or on an array of great water slides while the kids enjoy themselves in the kids' play area and swimming pool. Make a day of it by renting a thatched lapa with a picnic table and braai facilities.
There are plenty of places near Akasia to enjoy the great outdoors. You can head for the breathtaking Magaliesberg Mountain Range or to the Wonderboom Nature Reserve for a hike. Visit the Bon Accord Horse Trails or Bon Accord Dam for a horse-riding, fishing or water sports experience.
- Easy access to every possible amenity
Over and above the wide range of amenities in the area, Akasia offers quick access to arterial routes that will take you to other parts of Gauteng as well as North West towns like Brits, Hartbeespoort and Rustenburg.
