Chantelle is a small, predominantly residential area, that forms part of Akasia. It has a population of around 5,000. Many of the residents work in the nearby industrial area Rosslyn. Chantelle only occupies a piece of land only slightly over 2 square kilometres in extent.

It is located to the northwest of Pretoria and falls within the Tshwane Municipality. The Wonderboom airport is quite close by. Chantelle itself doesn’t really have any entertainment venues but their are a number of things to do in the surrounding region.
