A little history
Linden was established in 1901 on part of the Klipfontein farm, land that was used to grow fruit before it was surveyed. It became part of the City of Johannesburg in 1937. Its streets and avenues form a regular grid of similar sized blocks.
The houses
Mid century and older family homes on large stands, many with a cottage, flatlet or outbuildings. Original houses with stoeps and steel windows are common, as are later extensions.
