Glenwood at a Glance
Glenwood is a suburb on the lower Berea in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. It is one of Durban's oldest suburbs extending from its colonial-style mansions near the University of KwaZulu-Natal to the Victorian style houses in Davenport Road and on down to the lower-income Umbilo Road area. Glenwood has entered a phase of suburban revival due to a flurry of antique shops, art galleries, coffee shops, cafe's and restaurants that have emerged recently and are enjoying strong support.
The Glenwood property market has an unassuming, neighbourly vibe with properties perched on tree-lined streets. It's creative spirit and proximity to Durban Central make it a popular residential property destination. Glenwood property prices range from R 400,000 for an entry level apartment to over R4,000,000 for a large family home at one of Glenwood's more upmarket addresses. Some of Glenwood's nearby places of interest include the Moses Mabhida Stadium and the Royal Durban Golf Course.
Schools in the area include Glenwood High School, Glenwood Preparatory School (formerly Parkview Primary School), Glenwood Junior Primary School, Open Air School, Penzance Primary School, St. Henry's Marist Brothers' College and Durban Girls' High School.
