House for sale
Tranquil family living in established Athlone with scenic outlooks; modern split-level home features a separate flatlet, expansive deck and two garages — four bedrooms, two bathrooms.
Positioned in a quiet, established part of Athlone, this modern split-level home offers generous space, everyday comfort, and scenic outlooks, with the added benefit of a separate flatlet. It suits families, extended households, or buyers seeking additional income.
A gently winding pathway leads from the garage to the home, where a water feature and swimming pool create a calm and welcoming entrance. The entrance hall is light-filled and inviting, with warm feature lighting that sets a relaxed tone from the outset.
To the right, the lounge is spacious and well designed, with high ceilings, distinctive lighting, and a freestanding fireplace. Sliding doors open onto a wooden deck, providing an easy indoor-outdoor flow and a pleasant space for entertaining or enjoying the views.
A few steps up from the entrance hall is the open-plan dining area and modern kitchen. The kitchen is both practical and stylish, fitted with marble countertops, ample cupboard space, a breakfast counter, gas hob, electric oven, extractor fan, and space for a single fridge and dishwasher.
The bedroom wing comprises four well-sized bedrooms, all with laminate flooring, ceiling fans, and air conditioning for year-round comfort. The main bedroom offers a private retreat with a dressing room, generous built-in cupboards, and a full en-suite bathroom. A second full bathroom services the remaining bedrooms.
Separate from the main house is a versatile additional building that includes a laundry, domestic accommodation, and a spacious bachelor flatlet. The flatlet features an open-plan living, dining, and sleeping area, a galley-style kitchen with built-in cupboards and a double sink, and a separate bathroom with a shower. A paved braai area provides an outdoor space to relax, while a fenced section allows pets to be kept separate from the main garden if needed. The flatlet shares the driveway and parking with the main house, with access either via a pathway or through the main home, making it ideal for extended family living.
Parking is well catered for with two automated garages and two covered carports. The terraced garden slopes gently down towards the road and is supported by a 5,000-litre water tank, helping to maintain the garden throughout the year.
This well-located Athlone home offers modern living, flexibility, and a peaceful setting, making it a solid option for families or buyers needing extra accommodation.
