Heritage House – previously the Springkell Sanatorium – was built in 1910 as a hospital to treat lung ailments from the miners and TB patients such as the artist Jean Welzt and the Venerable Edel Quinn, an Irish lay missionary of the Legion of Mary, and whose work was based in East and Central Africa.
The House has been renovated, restored and refurbished in line with the requirements of the Provincial Heritage Resources Authority of Gauteng (PHRAG), who have also guided the development in terms of the Heritage Buildings on the property. These are the 2 heritage cottages in the Firs (built as nurses quarters), the Pavilion – built in 1925 as a concert hall, The Oval, the 1925 Superintendents House, stables and dairy. The Heritage Buildings are noted by their red roofs.
There are 21 suites on the 1st floor of Heritage House. All are offered on a rental option and 10 of the 21 suites have been completed and are occupied. The units have patios and beautiful views over the Oval, Pavilion and Olive Grove to the north – from Kempton Park to Sandton. The suites have kitchenettes and full access to all services offered at Heritage House and TruCare Age Well Solutions and primary health with Matron Devanna.
