House for sale
Space, light and income, a renovated family home in escombe
Relaxed family living in sought-after Escombe’s quiet crescent, close to schools and shops, with soaring 3m ceilings, brand-new kitchen and a separate air-conditioned flatlet for rental income.
Homes like this are hard to find. Soaring 3m ceilings and generously sized rooms give this home a feeling of space you won`t find in modern builds, and with air-conditioning in the main house, you`ll stay cool and comfortable right through the Durban summer.
The hard work is done. A brand-new kitchen with modern cupboards is the heart of the home and opens onto the lounge and dining room, so whoever is cooking is never cut off from the family. The dining room shares the same lofty ceilings and lovely natural light, with room for Sunday lunch, homework and guests who never want to leave.
There are two bedrooms in the main house. One has its own en-suite bathroom; both rooms have built-in cupboards, and the second bedroom is spacious enough for a desk, ideal for the studying scholars, or even working from home. Every bathroom has been tastefully modernised, and a separate family bathroom means no queuing in the mornings.
Then the income side. The newly refurbished, air-conditioned flatlet has its own entrance, kitchen, bedroom, bathroom and washing-machine plumbing. It`s ready for a tenant or working young adult to help pay your bond, or to house ageing parents or visiting family in comfort and privacy.
There`s also a separate teen pad with a bedroom-lounge, dining area and bathroom: independent space for an older child, a home office, home gym or a second rental. Together, the two units could earn around R10,000 a month.
Outside, a separate room with its own toilet and basin offers private accommodation for a domestic worker or gardener. A front yard and patio make an easy outdoor spot, and the pet-friendly backyard has room for a pool, children and dogs.
The front fence has been replaced and raised for added privacy, and a security camera monitoring the front of the home stays with the property. A roll-up garage and parking for four cars, with steps leading down to the kitchen entrance, make coming home easy.
All this on a 700m2 stand with 181m2 of floor space, in a quiet crescent in sought-after Escombe, close to good schools, shops and the freeways, with the fire station nearby.
A comfortable, much-loved family home. Come and feel the difference those ceilings make.
