Sandton, named after the combination of two of its major suburbs, Sandown and Bryanston, is one of the most affluent areas within South Africa. It is both a commercial darling, owing to its central district being the wealthiest square mile in Africa and home to some of the most immaculate residential properties on the continent.
When it comes to luxury lifestyle living, homeowners and residents are spoiled for choice. Elegant and sophisticated shopping centres like Nelson Mandela Square and Sandton City offer world-class services and luxury goods from art to curiosities that cater to any flavour.
