Area Info

Selborne is one of East London’s most established and sought-after suburbs. Known for its tree-lined streets, well-kept gardens, and charming mix of historic and modern architecture, it offers a peaceful yet central location that appeals to families, professionals, and visitors alike. The suburb carries a strong sense of community, reflected in its quiet ambience and residential appeal.

One of Selborne's key attractions is its proximity to some of East London's top educational institutions. Most notably, it is home to Selborne College, a prestigious all-boys high school founded in 1872, and Clarendon High School for Girls, established in 1903. These schools not only uphold strong academic reputations but also contribute to the suburb’s historic character and family-friendly environment.

In terms of lifestyle and convenience, Selborne is ideally located. It offers easy access to shopping centres, cafés, and restaurants, as well as medical facilities and recreational clubs. The suburb is close to the East London Golf Club, and just a short drive away from Nahoon Beach, a local favourite for surfing and relaxing by the sea. Nearby, Hemingways Mall provides a modern retail and entertainment hub, and the East London Museum—famous for housing the coelacanth, a “living fossil” fish once thought extinct—is also within easy reach.

Selborne’s central location ensures excellent connectivity. Major roads and public transport routes pass through or near the area, and King Phalo Airport is just about 7 km away, making travel in and out of the city convenient for both business and leisure travellers.

Altogether, Selborne combines the charm of a well-established suburb with the convenience of urban living, offering visitors a comfortable and attractive base while exploring East London and its surroundings.
