ABOUT THE ESTATE

The Islands Estate is 52 waterfront homes built around 6.5km of private canals, linked to the dam itself by a unique bi-directional lock system.

Every home enjoys direct water frontage with private mooring, making The Islands the only estate of its kind in inland South Africa. The waterways are maintained year-round, and the lock system means residents can take their boats out onto Hartbeespoort Dam directly from their own jetty.

The estate’s exclusivity is built into its scale: with only 52 homes, the community remains tight-knit. Architecture is controlled for consistency, and security is comprehensive.

GOOD TO KNOW

Common questions

How do I get through the gate as a visitor?
Visitors are signed in by the resident or business they are visiting, so arrange your visit ahead of time. The gatehouse will ask who you are seeing plus your ID, and pre-arranged visitors move through fastest.
Are there homes for sale or to rent here?
Yes: the estate has an active property market. Local estate agents who specialise in the dam estates can show you what is currently available.
Can boats really reach the dam from the canals?
Yes: a bi-directional lock system connects the estate’s private canals to Hartbeespoort Dam, so residents cruise from their own jetties onto open water.
