Waterkloof by name and association, still remains synonymous with upper-class living. With a name like Waterkloof one would expect the street names to be Afrikaans too. This is certainly not the case.

There also is an Air Force base, Waterkloof Air force Base and is situated on Hans Strydom Drive.

Nestled on the southern hills of Pretoria, homes have an undisturbed view of the Jacaranda City, the Union Buildings and surrounds. Opulence is the norm and the houses or rather mansions speak for themselves. Stately homes and landscaped gardens lead into large homes. Waterkloof properties are about space and luxury, while the suburb itself is a real family neighbourhood.

You will see many high mortar walls protecting expensive investments. The prices in Waterkloof are what you would expect from an upper-class Gauteng suburb. The view and value Waterkloof properties offer is certainly worth the investment with property value increasing at between 4-5% annually. Property prices in Waterkloof range from the low R1,000,000’s up and above R10,000,000.

The erf sizes are on the larger side if you look at the older parts of Waterkloof, and approximately 800m2 for the newer developed areas.

Waterkloof boasts a first class High School, Hoërskool Waterkloof. This caters for the predominantly Afrikaans community. The school opened its doors to learners in January 1979. Like most new schools Hoërskool Waterkloof had a mundane start and had to fight hard to get to where they are today.

They can certainly hold their heads high with academic achievements to be proud of. 100% pass rate for the 23rd year in a row, and they were appraised as the best school in Gauteng for a fifth consecutive year in 2012. A total of 305 learners wrote the exam and there were a total of 726 distinctions for Waterkloof. That is dedication, drive and a will to succeed.

They are not slouches on the field either and as far as rugby goes they boast no less than 24 A Schools players, 28 SA Rugby Academy players and two A School rugby Captains. Their other sport achievements are just as impressive.
