Flycatcher CloseMeyersdal Eco Estate, Alberton, Johannesburg, 1448

This U-shaped mansion, designed by a renowned local architect, is positioned in a very desirable location on a sizeable plot in the picturesque Meyersdal Eco Estate in Ekurhuleni, Gauteng.

This wonderful home has quality finishes throughout. The attention to detail and thoughtful design elements are evident from the moment one is greeted at the impressive entrance. The paved walkway leads up a few steps to the bespoke patterned stained glass-and-lead front door.

On the interior, the home has large, airy, open-plan living spaces with beautiful, exposed beams and tongue-and-groove paneling, which are certainly one of the most striking features of this home. It also features American shutters, large chandeliers, a massive wood burning, dual fireplace and gorgeous, country-style-chic elements.

The kitchen is sure to inspire the avid baker or cook with its beautiful yet practical finishes and functionality, along with its large, separate scullery and walk-in pantry.
Entertaining is a pleasure with so many spaces to host family and friends, such as a pool room/bar and a large, covered patio from which the soothing sound of gently cascading water from the rim-flow pool can be heard.

All five the bedrooms are exceptionally spacious and have their own large bathrooms, with top-end fixtures and fittings. All four of the upstairs bedrooms have their own balconies and the large guest suite downstairs has a small kitchenette. There is a pyjama lounge with balcony and kitchenette on the upstairs level of the home.
The very spacious main bedroom is adjoined by a massive walk-in dressing room, which leads to a full bathroom with large bath, walk-in shower, double vanity and separate loo. The bedroom also leads out onto a stunning wrap-around balcony that overlooks the beautiful, irrigated garden with swimming pool.

There is garaging for at least four vehicles, carports and ample off-street parking as well as an outbuilding consisting of a laundry and staff accommodation.

Meyersdal Eco Estate offers its residents a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. It is an urban cocoon that offers an incredible lifestyle as well as top-notch security. The estate is home to various species of wildlife, including zebra, giraffe and a variety of buck. There is something to do for the whole family, from nature walks, riding along bicycle trails, playing tennis, breakfast or lunch at the clubhouse and sundowners at night.
