Chisipite, colloquially known as Chisi is an affluent residential suburb in northeastern Harare, Zimbabwe. It is bordered by Enterprise Road to the north and Eastern road to the east, and Greendale to the south to Lewisam to the west. Begun in the mid 20th century as a planned garden suburb, it did not fully develop until after the Second World War.[1]

Centred on Hindhead Avenue, the suburb grew slowly with medium-sized houses on narrow but deep lots. It is commonly regarded as one of the most expensive and exclusive neighbourhoods in the city, home to upper-middle-class families. Demographically, the neighbourhood has a diverse black and white population.[2]
