New Brighton, Sandton
New Brighton is a compact residential suburb in northern Johannesburg, located on the border between the Sandton and Randburg areas. The suburb is primarily residential, with a combination of established homes and smaller residential complexes rather than a significant Commercial or Industrial property market.

New Brighton is situated close to central Sandton, with current property listings placing the suburb approximately 4 kilometres from central Sandton. It is also conveniently positioned for access to Randburg, Bryanston, Parkmore and other established business areas.
