Meadowbrook Melrose Estate

This Spanish-style home was designed by Norman Hanson for Harold and Cicely Jeppe. Apart from his business interests, Jeppe was an Olympic athlete in 1920 while studying at Oxford, an international polo player and was instrumental in moving the first polo club founded by his father and associates, to Inanda. They moved to Parktown in the mid 1940s. (Blue plaque inscription)
