Apartment for sale
Coastal investment-ready one-bedroom steps from the beach and Humewood dining, ideal for short-stay guests with permitted Airbnb access, sunny enclosed balcony and parquet floors.
Positioned in a quiet block within Kings Court, this one-bedroom apartment offers a rare combination in the Port Elizabeth market: an affordable coastal address and genuine income potential. The building`s management rules formally permit Airbnb, making this a ready-to-run short-stay opportunity rather than a maybe.
Inside, warm parquet timber flooring runs through the living area, bedroom and passage, giving the interior character underfoot. The dining room and lounge open onto an enclosed balcony that catches the sun, while the bedroom includes built-in cupboards. A neat bathroom and a functional kitchen complete a compact, easy-to-let layout. Secure tag-based lobby access, an intercom at the door and burglar bars add day-to-day peace of mind.
The numbers are what set this apart. At R650 000, the entry cost is low, the location is high-demand, and a major building upgrade has already been approved and is due to commence within months — a clear path toward improved presentation and future value. For an investor, that timing matters.
Location drives the returns. The beach is a two-street walk away, the vibey restaurants and clubs of Humewood are within strolling distance, and the world-class Boardwalk Shopping and Entertainment Centre is a three-minute drive. The city centre is a scenic ten-minute commute. Whether you target holidaymakers, weekenders or long-term tenants, the fundamentals are here.
Buy in before the upgrade completes and turn this into the money-making asset it`s built to be.
