Whether you’re in Johannesburg for business or leisure, this apartment’s location in the buzzing suburb of Roseburn has you covered. In the area, you’ve got easy access to the business hub of Sandton in one direction, and museums, zoos and galleries in Saxonwold in the other.

It’s a studio apartment, decked out in modern chic design. We love the soft gold accents in the modern artwork and plush velvet dining chairs. A big window by the bed lets the South African sunshine stream in. Then there’s the shared outdoor space where an astroturf terrace makes way for a plunge pool fed by waterfalls.
