Imagine living in an idyllic park-like setting where you feel you are permanently on holiday. Fresh air, tranquillity, friendly neighbours, 24hr security and a magnificent golf course. Borrowdale Brooke, the brainchild of Lonrho Construction, was started in 1996. The Estate comprises 252 hectares of tranquil landscape sub-divided into 665 stands. There are a variety of housing designs on The Estate with basic building guidelines in place to ensure an overall standard of aesthetics, and safety standards of the City of Harare are adhered to. The magnificent 18-hole golf course was designed and built by Peter Matkovich of Matkovich and Hayes, in consultation with Nick Price, to United States Golf Association standards. Borrowdale Brooke Golf Club was opened by Nick Price on 27th November 1998. The course has developed beautifully with many big trees and 209 bird species have been recorded on the course and in the gardens on The Estate. The Brooke is the ideal, safe environment to bring up a family in.
