Jawitz Properties Rentals and Sales Brakpan 2.98

Situated between Benoni and Springs, Brakpan is an industrial centre in the Witwatersrand mining area of the Gauteng province. It’s home to nearly 350,000 people.

Brakpan properties cover a range of attractive residential options, from family homes with gardens to city-style apartments.

Brakpan’s history as a mining town dates back to the late 1800s, when the British established a coal mine known as the Brakpan Collieries and an associated coal power station. Then gold was discovered in the Witwatersrand, and in 1905, Brakpan opened its first gold mines and a steady stream of new residents followed. It was considered a suburb of Benoni until 1912, when it was declared a town.
