Braamfontein apartment costing R4 million drops jaws across SA
Meanwhile, Briefly News previously reported that Mzansi's social media users would be the first to tell you that they've seen it all on the Twitter streets, but a studio apartment in Braamfontein costing a few million has stunned even this group of sleuths.
A Twitter user, @OscarMagud, headed to the bird app to drop a bombshell that left South Ahh taken aback as he shared images of a cosy-looking studio apartment located on the outskirts of Johannesburg CBD in trendy Braamfontein.
The caption read:
"R3 990 000 | 1 Bedroom in Braamfontein!"
The tweep incorrectly refers to it as a one-bedroom flat. But on closer inspection, it's clear that it is more a studio apartment, housing everything in a single room with a separate bathroom.
