Altura

Altura is a residential development by South African developer VTC Africa. Its official page places it in Ruimsig Country Estate, Krugersdorp, South Africa. The developer presents it as its latest project and advertises 'Luxury 3, 4 and 5 Bedroom Terraced Villas'. The word luxury is the developer's own: the page publishes no technical specification or schedule of finishes that would allow it to be detailed.

Three villa types

The project page describes three layouts and gives the number of bedrooms and bathrooms for each:

• Three bedroom villa: two bathrooms.
• Four bedroom villa: two bathrooms.
• Five bedroom villa: four bathrooms.

'Terraced' usually refers to homes built in a row that share side walls. The developer does not show how the villas are laid out on the land, so only a site plan supplied by VTC Africa can confirm the arrangement.

Features listed by the developer

The page lists six features, as short labels only:

• beautiful design;
• fibre internet;
• private gardens;
• recycling;
• secure family estate;
• Smeg appliances.

None of these labels is explained. The page does not say which Smeg appliances are supplied, which fibre provider serves the estate, what the recycling covers, or how security is organised (guards, access control, hours).

Where Altura is

The project page carries the heading 'Ruimsig Country Estate, Krugersdorp'. The developer's home page links Altura to Ruimsig and describes a secure family estate and country living. No postal address is published for the development, and the page gives neither a street name nor an access map.

Who is building it

The developer trades as VTC Africa Investments (Pty) Ltd and describes itself as a residential development company. Its website states that it was founded in 2007 by Verissimo Tavares and Victor Nunes. The same site presents two other developments: Sant'Ana in Northriding and Villa Casa Nova in Broadacres. Its offices are listed at A1 Gateview House, Constantia Park, Vlakhaas Ave, Weltevredenpark 1709.

Construction status

The project page includes a photo gallery titled 'Construction Progress', with no date and no indication of phases. The developer's home page refers to brand new homes currently on sale. No completion or handover date is published.

What is not published

As of 10 October 2026, the official project page does not give the following:

• prices;
• floor areas and garden sizes;
• the total number of villas;
• the number of garages or parking bays;
• the handover schedule;
• the estate levies;
• the name of the architect.

These details have to be requested from VTC Africa directly. The company publishes a landline (+27 11 462 3724) and a WhatsApp line (+27 60 989 2832), and the project page offers a brochure for download. For any figure, a written and dated document from the developer is the reference.
