A Transformational Development in Kempton Park CBD
Central Park is redefining urban living in Kempton Park’s CBD. This landmark 648-unit residential development delivers safe, modern, and affordable housing in one of Gauteng’s busiest commuter and retail hubs.

Strategically positioned alongside Kempton Square and directly opposite Arwyp Hospital, the development integrates residential living with retail convenience, creating a seamless urban experience. Developed by ONE Property Holdings and project-managed by Vertias Project Management, Central Park represents a new standard in smart, connected city living.

Retail Integration & Connectivity
A key highlight of Central Park is its seamless integration with surrounding retail and transport infrastructure.

The development introduces Central Park Mall, a ground-floor retail strip that connects directly to Kempton Square. This creates a convenient and protected shopping experience for residents and commuters alike.

Street-facing retail activates pedestrian routes, while major national tenants at Kempton Square — including Pick n Pay, Clicks, Ackermans, Mr Price, and leading banks — support daily convenience and drive consistent foot traffic.

Pedestrian pathways have been carefully designed to align with natural commuter movement, linking directly to nearby taxi and bus ranks.

Regenerating an Urban Block
The Central Park site, previously home to the old post office, stood vacant after demolition. Recognising its strategic location near major transport routes, OR Tambo International Airport, and key amenities, ONE Property Holdings identified the opportunity to revitalise the space.

The result is a vibrant, mixed-use precinct that transforms an underutilised block into a secure and thriving urban environment.

Smart Parking Innovation
One of the project’s most innovative features is its approach to parking.

Instead of constructing new parking structures, the development repurposes existing underutilised parking at Kempton Square. A registered servitude and underground tunnel connect the parking directly to the residential complex.

This solution:
Reduces capital expenditure
Maximises existing infrastructure
Improves pedestrian flow
Enhances walkability

Safety & Security at the Core
Security is central to the Central Park experience. Residents enter through biometric-controlled access points, supported by CCTV monitoring and 24-hour on-site security.

The design ensures that residents feel safe and secure from the moment they arrive, creating a sense of dignity and peace of mind in an urban environment.

Innovative Construction & Cost Efficiency
Central Park incorporates advanced construction methods to reduce costs while maintaining quality.

Hebel AAC blocks were used for internal structures, offering:
Fire resistance
Thermal efficiency
Faster installation
Approximately 30% reduction in structural costs

The use of adhesive systems instead of traditional mortar further improved construction speed and finish quality.

Sustainable & Recycled Materials
Sustainability is embedded throughout the development.

Recycled materials from Infinite Industries - created from previously non-recyclable plastics — have been used for:
Benches and tables
Decorative skirting
Play areas and fencing

These elements contribute to both environmental responsibility and vibrant design.

Smart Systems for Long-Term Efficiency
Central Park integrates smart systems designed to reduce operational costs and improve sustainability:

Motion-activated LED lighting
Rooftop heat pump system with metered water
Solar PV installation
Backup generator for essential services
Large-scale water storage capacity

Apartment interiors feature durable, high-quality finishes including granite countertops, MDF cabinetry, built-in stoves, and washing machine connections.

A Vision for Urban Transformation
Central Park reflects ONE Property Holdings’ broader vision of transforming underutilised spaces into thriving, income-generating assets that serve both communities and local economies.

More than just a residential development, Central Park is a catalyst for urban renewal — bringing safety, connectivity, and dignity back into the heart of Kempton Park.
