House for sale
Relaxed family living in sought-after Olivedale, Randburg, on a huge 1,310m² stand with expansive rear garden ripe for pool, cottage or extension; three bedrooms, two bathrooms.
Step back in time and discover one of Olivedale`s original character homes, built by the renowned Schachat Cullum group, whose quality homes became synonymous with Randburg living from the 1960s through to the late 1990s.
Positioned on an exceptionally large stand, this charming 3-bedroom home offers a rare opportunity to modernise, renovate, extend, or even develop further while retaining the character and charm that made these homes so sought after.
The home features three well-sized bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a main en-suite bathroom with bath, basin and toilet. The semi-open-plan lounge and dining area create a welcoming living space, while the separate kitchen offers ample cupboard space, room for a double-door refrigerator, and space for a top-loader washing machine.
Patio Doors from the lounge open onto an uncovered patio overlooking the expansive back garden – arguably the property`s greatest asset. Thanks to the home`s position closer to the front boundary, the enormous rear garden offers endless possibilities, including the addition of a cottage, entertainment area, swimming pool, home office, or substantial future extensions.
Adding to its nostalgic appeal are the original floral bathroom tiles, a signature feature of many classic Schachat Cullum homes and a reminder of a bygone era.
Additional features include:
The property is situated within a proactive community security initiative that includes CCTV camera surveillance throughout the area and an active security WhatsApp group. Residents contribute approximately R600 per month towards the monitoring and maintenance of this valuable security network.
Whether you`re looking for a family home to personalise, an investment opportunity to flip, or a property with enough land to unlock future value, this is a rare find in a highly sought-after part of Olivedale.
Properties with this amount of land, character, and potential seldom come to market.
