Pennyville

Pennyville family rental and communal rooms, an affordable housing project in Pennyville Ext 1 opposite New Canada Station, south west of Johannesburg.

The project has been designed with three occupier categories in mind and, when completed, Pennyville will comprise 2 800 units in 36m2, 40m2 and 42m2 variants, mainly as single-storey units, but also as double and triple storey units.

Approximately 1 400 houses will be allocated by the city of Johannesburg to qualifying RDP beneficiaries from the Zamamphilo informal settlement. These houses form part of the Local Provincial and National Housing Department’s commitment to housing development, and will be owned by the beneficiaries under sectional title.

One of the huge advantages of Pennyville is its close proximity to the centre of Johannesburg. JOSHCO will manage 400 units. Tenants will be given the option of either leasing family units or individual rooms within threebedroomed units, depending upon their requirements.

JOSHCO units will comprise a living area, a bathroom with a wash basin and toilet and pre-paid electricity.
