Linbro Park - A Vintage Industrialist's Dream
Category Johannesburg: Newsletter News
While located in the ultra-modern business district of Sandton in Johannesburg - Linbro Park brings a spacious, vintage charm to this corner of the city. While home to large homes, green spaces, horse stables and schools, it is also the ideal location for new business and offers some of the best industrial property spaces in the city.
The area is mixture of large plots with multiple uses, depending on which part of the neighbourhood you find yourself. The residential side of Linbro Park appears to have been frozen in time, before development crept ever-further north. It has a distinct vintage feel about it as you enter the neighbourhood - featuring old farmhouses, many with horses in paddocks and rickety gates lining driveways.
In the distance you are able to spot beautiful old trees and slightly rundown dwellings. This humble town, while not a newer suburb of JHB still strives to be as green as possible. One of Johannesburg's first cob houses was erected in Linbro Park.
However, despite this, Linbro is thought of as an industrial use area, with vast and expansive spaces and easy access points making it ideal for industrial activity. Encompassing the Malboro Gautrain station, most of the suburb is located on the far side of the N3 highway from Marlboro Drive. The N3 is a central and vital artery that connects the N12 and N1 to other major highways in the city. The Gautrain's route crosses the northern boundary of Linbro Park, past the agricultural holdings and Modderfontein, linking directly to OR Tambo International.
The ideal accessibility of the suburb, combined with large plots and reliable infrastructure has resulted in a surge of new housing and industrial developments in the area. Linbro Wedge Business Park consists of modern mini units which boast an energy-efficient design, 24-hour security and access control. This versatile light industrial development, which has been built according to the latest principles of environmentally-friendly design, creates exciting possibilities for potential owners and renters in a plethora of industries.
SA-Venues describes Linbro Park as a neighbourhood for those who still want to capture the soul of what it is to live on the outskirts of town with easy access to its business districts. Properties here are huge, houses are rambling and industrial space is aplenty.
There's no doubt that it's the perfect area to settle into for those who aren't attached to the manicured, modern and busy city life.
