Property Description
Positioned just off Winnie Mandela Drive in Fourways, this property offers excellent exposure in a busy and well-established part of the northern suburbs. The property is currently used for residential purposes, but its location and visibility create strong potential for redevelopment or alternative commercial use, subject to the necessary rezoning and municipal approvals. With easy access to Winnie Mandela Drive and the greater Fourways area, the site could suit a variety of future uses, depending on the purchaser’s requirements and successful rezoning. The property presents an opportunity for developers, investors or owner-occupiers looking for a well-positioned site with the potential to be adapted or redeveloped over time. Please note: any commercial use, redevelopment or change in land use is subject to the required rezoning, municipal approvals and applicable town-planning regulations.

Area Description
Norscot is an established residential suburb within the greater Fourways node in northern Johannesburg, falling under the City of Johannesburg Metropolitan Municipality and the Sandton postal area. Turaco Street runs off Winnie Mandela Drive, the arterial formerly known as William Nicol Drive, which carries traffic between Sandton and Diepsloot and is the principal north-south route through Fourways. Fourways has developed into one of Johannesburg’s larger mixed-use nodes: Fourways Mall and Cedar Square lie within roughly two kilometres, Montecasino and its Gautrain bus stop are about a kilometre away, and convenience shopping is available at Pineslopes and Fourways Gardens. Private medical care is available at Life Fourways Hospital just under three kilometres away, with Netcare Sunninghill Hospital about six kilometres east. Schooling in the immediate area includes Fourways High School under a kilometre from the property, pre-primary schools within Norscot itself, and Crawford International Fourways in neighbouring Craigavon. The Sandton CBD is approximately nine kilometres to the south-east. The surrounding stretch of Winnie Mandela Drive carries a mix of residential, office and commercial uses, which is the context for the redevelopment potential the seller describes.
