City living offers quality, convenience, and excitement unlike any other residential option available. If this is the lifestyle that appeals to you and you are on the lookout for the absolute pinnacle of urban living in Africa, you would be hard pressed to find anything that beats the comfort and style offered by some of the top luxury apartments available in Johannesburg.

 

Johannesburg is a vibrant city that pulses with life, culture, and action. Whether you choose to invest in one of the luxury apartments in one of the many adjacent business nodes or in the inner city itself, you will find yourself a mere hop, skip, and jump away from some great attraction at any given time

 

In fact, Johannesburg has so much to offer in terms of work and play that people’s choice of apartments can greatly affect the lifestyle they experience. Which is, of course, great, as not all of us have the same tastes and preferences.

 

To help you on your hunt for luxury apartments in Johannesburg that suit your lifestyle to a tee, we have gathered a couple of considerations. Use these as a guide and enjoy the process – there are a lot to choose from, and there is bound to be a perfect place out there just waiting for you to discover it.

 

Location can determine the lifestyle

 

The greater Johannesburg area consists of a number of residential areas, each with their own charm and attractions. Sandton, also known as Africa’s richest square mile, is an affluent suburb that is known for being home to many national and international company headquarters, as well as some of the best shopping experiences in South Africa. Established suburban areas like Northcliff are home to more traditional apartments with great views, while Melville offers an unmatched bohemian feel. The recent revival of the Johannesburg CBD means that there is now also a choice of hyper-modern luxury apartments available right in the heart of the city.

 

Does it come with secure parking?

 

This might sound like an obvious feature, but never assume that an apartment comes with parking, or that the parking meets your standards or safety requirements. Parking can be a very expensive addition if not part of your package.

 

Check the proximity of public transport

 

If you choose to live away from where you work or play, you may want to make sure that there is public transport available in your area that meets your needs. The Gautrain is a very handy and safe transport system that serves select areas throughout Johannesburg. Also check the highways, access roads, and traffic conditions in the area to make sure that it meets the level of convenience your lifestyle requires.

 

Consider mixed-use developments

 

Mixed-use developments are fast rising in popularity and the reasons are clear. These developments combine a variety of services – from luxury living apartments to state-of-the-art offices, gym facilities, fine dining, and everything in between, for the ultimate in convenience.

 

Security is important

 

Do not simply assume that the security of the apartments you are looking at are all the same standard. While we love the city, it is responsible to acknowledge the crime in Johannesburg – as is the case with every major city globally. Pay special attention to the security features of the building or development that you are interested in and make sure it meets your standards before you buy.
