Glenferness is a semi-rural suburb located in the Midrand area of Johannesburg, known for its peaceful, country-like atmosphere. It’s uniquely positioned to offer both seclusion and accessibility, with excellent road links via the N1, M1, and N3 highways. The area is primarily zoned for agriculture, preserving its open, low-density character and preventing overdevelopment. Large properties, often ranging from two to six acres, are common, many featuring paddocks, stables, and equestrian facilities. This makes it especially attractive to horse lovers and those seeking a spacious, nature-rich lifestyle. There’s a concerted effort by locals to protect the rural charm and ecological health of the area. Despite its countryside feel, Glenferness is close to major business and retail hubs such as Fourways, Sandton, and the Mall of Africa. Ultimately, Glenferness offers a distinctive blend of lifestyle, location, and community spirit, making it one of Johannesburg’s most unique suburbs.
