The combination of a substantial erf, generous accommodation, a separate apartment and an exceptionally well-established location creates genuine scope to add value over time. Silwood Road is a location where quality family homes remain sought after, making this an opportunity to invest in the property itself while benefiting from the enduring appeal of the address. The location at the quieter cul-de-sac end of Silwood Road adds to the appeal, particularly for families, with less through traffic and a more relaxed environment for children to ride their bikes and play.

BEDROOMS/BATHROOMS

The main house has three bedrooms, two bathrooms and well connected entertainment space. One bedroom and its ensuite bathroom are downstairs, while two further good size bedrooms and a shared bathroom are upstairs. There is a wonderful mezzanine 'daybed' lounge area halfway up the stairs, which is the perfect spot for a lazy morning of reading books whilst enjoying the morning light.

APARTMENT/OFFICE

A separate guest apartment adds valuable flexibility. It comprises a large open-plan lounge, dining and bedroom area, a kitchenette with shelving, sink and appliance space, a bar fridge and an ensuite bathroom with shower, basin and toilet. It could work equally well for extended family, guests, an older child or a private work-from-home space.

LIVING/ENTERTAINING

The long lounge and dining room is the heart of the home, with a fireplace and multiple access points from the entrance hall, downstairs passage, kitchen and front garden. Double doors open directly onto the garden, creating a natural connection between the living areas and outdoors.

KITCHEN

The kitchen overlooks the back garden and large swimming pool and has plenty of built-in cabinetry, a built-in oven, electric hob and extractor, with space for both a dishwasher and washing machine. An eat-in peninsula provides a casual spot for family meals, with additional space for a smaller dining area or lounge. Double doors to the back garden and pool.

GARAGES/PARKING

The property also has a large double garage, with additional storage space at the sides and in the rafters. There is further off-street parking for three cars in front of the garage.

GARDEN

Outside, the north-east-facing front garden has attractive planted borders and a mature pin oak. A covered front patio provides a sheltered spot from which to enjoy the established greenery and birdlife. The rear garden is centred around a large swimming pool, with extensive brick and decking, planted borders and mature trees and shrubs providing privacy. There is also a mature pin oak, a brick-paved dining area and a substantial wooden shed. Along one side is a drying yard and large water tanks for rainwater collection. There is an irrigation system (not currently automated).

LOCATION

From 44 Silwood Road, families have easy access to Bishops, Forres, Micklefield and Rustenburg Girls, while commuters benefit from straightforward connections to the M3, M5 and N2. Rondebosch's shops, restaurants, sports facilities and other Southern Suburbs amenities are all close at hand.

The property presents an excellent opportunity for buyers looking to update and make a home their own, with good underlying space and a layout that offers scope to enhance the accommodation and living areas over time.
