Starting from R1,500,000 INCL VAT

In the quiet contours of Ncambedlana, just beyond the heartbeat of Mthatha and within arm’s reach of the N2, a bold and necessary idea is taking shape.

Eso’s Nest Eco Estate isn’t just the city’s first lifestyle estate — it’s a reimagination of what residential life in this part of the Eastern Cape can be. For decades, lifestyle estates have been the preserve of the country’s larger metros. Now, for the first time, Mthatha has one of its own.

Set on 4,2 hectares of scenic farmland, Eso’s Nest Eco Estate is a sustainable estate designed with intent — balancing the simplicity of rural surrounds with the security, amenities, and design of modern urban estates. The development comprises 83 free-standing homes with generous private gardens and floorplans to suit families at every stage of life. Two-bedroom homes range from 80m² to 89.59m², while three-bedroom units stretch from 118.91m² to 131.54m² — all starting from just R1,500,000 including VAT. But this development is about far more than square metres and price points.

It is this thoughtful balance of privacy and participation that gives Eso’s Nest its distinct appeal. Families, professionals, and retirees alike will find that the estate offers both the independence of freehold living and the benefits of shared space and lifestyle amenities.

Security is another pillar of the development. Access-controlled entry through a single main gate, a manned gatehouse, and robust boundary with electric fencing ensure peace of mind for all residents — a standard that aligns with the estate’s vision of carefree, community-cantered living.

Just a short drive from a local service station and a shopping centre that includes Superspar and restaurants, Eso’s Nest Eco Estate strikes the ideal balance between accessibility and retreat. It’s close enough to keep daily life convenient, and far enough to offer a rare sense of escape.
