Introduction and history of Kempton Park

With its spacious homes, an abundance of things to do and convenience close to home, Kempton Park makes an ideal home for many families. Living in Kempton Park means living close to an array of business parks as well as O. R. Tambo International Airport, which means that you get to cut down drastically on the amount of time that you spend in traffic.

The property market in Kempton Park has something to offer everyone. From bachelor flats and one-bedroom apartments priced at under the R500 000 mark to lifestyle estates and luxurious family homes with six or seven bedrooms, Kempton Park has it all.

The history of Kempton Park dates back to August 1903, when Karl Friedrich Wolff, a farmer in the area, divided part of his land into residential stands. The town was originally named "Kempten" after the town in Germany that Wolff was born in. The name was later modified to become Kempton Park.
