Exclusive and executive, Emoyeni is one of Johannesburgs prime estates. This heritage site, perched on the highest ridge in Parktown, offers panoramic and breathtaking views extending as far as Magaliesberg.
Designed by architects Leck and Emley, and built in 1905 for the Honourable Henry Hull, who was to become minister of finance in the first Union government, the house is faced with red brick with Tuscan colonnades and has Palladian windows, white eaves trim, stone insets and segmental pediments, being described as English Renaissance.
Emoyeni originates from the Zulu language meaning "Up in the Air" and was designed and built in 1905 for the Honourable Henry Hull, who was to hold lavish parties for the rich and eminent. Hidden from the bustle of the city below, this is an apt name for a majestic place so high in the sky, where one can see the northern suburbs of Johannesburg below.
