There is still a place where you can f<strong>in</strong>d peace and<br />
tranquillity; a place where you can relax, unw<strong>in</strong>d and<br />
be<strong>co</strong>me one with nature. Serengeti is such a place.<br />
Serengeti golf and Wildlife Estate is a new city <strong>in</strong><br />
gauteng – a designer suburb surrounded by hectares of open<br />
spaces and a variety of facilities. Completely self-<strong>co</strong>nta<strong>in</strong>ed<br />
and secure, it offers with<strong>in</strong> itself everyth<strong>in</strong>g discern<strong>in</strong>g<br />
owners and their families need or desire. given its excellent<br />
location and accessibility, just 15 km from the OR Tambo<br />
International Airport, it is unlikely that land this size – 780<br />
hectares – will ever aga<strong>in</strong> be<strong>co</strong>me available for residential<br />
property development.<br />
The Serengeti golf <strong>co</strong>urse jo<strong>in</strong>s an elite group of more<br />
than 300 worldwide carry<strong>in</strong>g the Nicklaus Signature, but<br />
it is the first 27-hole signature <strong>co</strong>urse <strong>in</strong> gauteng. The<br />
18-hole <strong>co</strong>urse, Masai Mara, has a rugged grassland and<br />
dune-scape look and feel, and the 9-hole <strong>co</strong>urse, Whistl<strong>in</strong>g<br />
Thorn, features classic design elements and a pla<strong>in</strong>s-like feel.<br />
Serengeti is one of the first <strong>co</strong>urses <strong>in</strong> the <strong>co</strong>untry to use<br />
<strong>co</strong>ol season grasses, mean<strong>in</strong>g that the <strong>co</strong>urse rema<strong>in</strong>s lush<br />
and green throughout the year.<br />
Serengeti is spacious by design, s<strong>in</strong>ce it has been<br />
<strong>co</strong>nceived to embrace a sense of wide open spaces. There is<br />
room to breathe, to explore, and simply to be <strong>co</strong>ntent as a<br />
family. Although close to a bustl<strong>in</strong>g city, Serengeti manages<br />
to create a sense of tranquillity, and with many families<br />
already liv<strong>in</strong>g here, it is matur<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>to a suburb with a true<br />
sense of <strong>co</strong>mmunity – a liv<strong>in</strong>g, breath<strong>in</strong>g estate. This has<br />
been achieved through the creation of a mean<strong>in</strong>gful space<br />
for world-class, diverse facilities, where one’s every need is<br />
met with<strong>in</strong> your immediate surround<strong>in</strong>gs.<br />
Serengeti … it all <strong>co</strong>mes together here. •<br />
