Meyersdal Eco Estate is one of the most exclusive and upmarket residential estates in Gauteng, located in Alberton, just 10 minutes south of Johannesburg[1]. Spanning approximately 400-480 hectares of unspoiled undulating hills, the estate provides luxurious living while prioritizing the preservation of the natural environment, with less than 15% of the land developed and vast expanses of Highveld grassland home to varied fauna and flora[1][2].
The estate forms part of the larger 1,080-hectare Meyersdal Nature Area and features only 343 large residential stands, offering residents privacy and exclusivity. Stand sizes range from 750m² to 4,000m²[1][2]. Residents enjoy scenic views and a harmonious balance between modern luxury and nature, with regular sightings of wildlife such as kudu, wildebeest, zebra, and over 98 bird species[2].
The estate’s amenities include:
- 24-hour state-of-the-art security with a monitored control room, CCTV, and patrols
- A clubhouse with estate management offices, residents’ pub/lounge, and a function hall with a large patio
- Easy access to top schools, shopping centers (Alberton City, Meyersdal Mall, The Glen, Bedford Centre), and major highways (N12 and R59)
- 16 km of mountain bike track and a 7 km hiking trail to explore the wildlife
- Three dams supporting five indigenous fish species, with a catch and release policy
