Benmore Gardens was established on the portion of a farm known as Sandfontein, and then later the very famous farm, Benmore, owned by Montagu Simpson in 1928. The farm was located at the intersection of West Street, Benmore Street and Grayston Drive.
The suburb was named after the Benmore Ayrshire Herd of cattle which according to history has won numerous awards at various shows including the famous Rand Easter Show.
Today Benmore is of course an affluent suburb of Johannesburg with a myriad of architectural styles, apartment building, schools, malls and a commercial hub.
The fertile farm soil was also put to good use when one looks at the dramatic landscaped gardens in the suburb with its tree lined residential streets.
The suburb is sought after for the value the properties yield and location. It is central to amenities which reduces traveling time and cost.
Just outside Benmore, in Sandton on Maude Street, West Street and Rivonia Roads there is a commercial hub of top notch law firm chambers, and hotels such as the Balalaika and Hilton Sandton Hotels to name but two.
Schools in and around Benmore Gardens ensures easy traveling to and from school. You will find Crawford College Sandton, Varsity College Sandton, Montrose Primary School and Sandown High School in close proximity to Benmore Gardens.
