Property Description
Modern family home - make an offer!!! A home to be proud of. Ample space. Large garden. Close to all amenities and schools.
Tommy Ellis, father of Charles Ellis and the developer of Thatchfield Estate moved to the area in 1964, after selling his hotel “The Barbeque Ranch” later known as the “Kyalami Ranch”. He felt that the land between the two cities of Pretoria and Johannesburg would be a good investment and over the years bought up parts of the farm Olievenhoutbosch, which he named White Hills Farm due to the white quartz reef running through the farm. He built a landing strip and had a lot of fun growing mielies, sweet potatoes, and tunnel tomatoes. He also had a herd of jersey cattle and merino sheep. He built a number of cottages on the land, and the current Homeowners office and Security office are two of the original cottages that were built. In the 1970’s the land was incorporated into a municipality, and in 1974, Tommy Ellis submitted his own application for township development which lead to the approval of Thatchfield Close and Thatchfield Hills some thirty years later. In 2001, Charles Ellis managed to acquire the Property and finalized the township application which had been made thirty years previously. The development was known as Thatchfield due to the rolling fields of thatching grass.
The first phase was launched in 2003. Thatchfield Estates consists of Thatchfield Close Estate, Thatchfield Crescent Estate, Thatchfield Gardens Estate, Thatchfield Glen Estate, Thatchfield Manor Estate, Thatchfield Heights Estate and Thatchfield Hills Estate. The Estate falls within the suburb of The Reeds. The Estate consists of approximately 1,700 Properties (2011) and when completed will have in excess of 3,000 Properties. The Estate is popular with the middle class as it is very centrally situated in Centurion with the Reds Mall being just around the corner and with easy access to the R55 and N14.
