The development of The Yard commenced in April 2004, targeting upmarket students due to its location just a few meters from the main entrance to the University of Johannesburg. The majority of the 130 units were sold out within the first hours of being on show. Red face-brick and slate tiles were combined with dark grey metal features to create an aesthetic that reflects its residents’ modern lifestyle. This project is generally considered one of our most sought-after developments due the massive demand Century Property Developments has received from various quarters, from investors for rental income opportunities, parents of students and employees of businesses in the area. Facilities on this development include a clubhouse with launderette, a swimming pool and a secure access-controlled gatehouse.
