Character-filled Upper Observatory home, steps from the medical campus and Groote Schuur Hospital. Open-plan living with fireplace and centre-island kitchen, plus private courtyard garden. Three bedrooms, one bath.
Occupation from 1st July 2026 for minimum 12-month lease
Cozy victorian style semi-detached home in the heart of upper Observatory right near the medical campus and Groote Schuur Hospital.
Recently having had a revamp and being newly repainted, this home features an open plan living area with fireplace and high ceilings, leading onto a neat kitchen with centre island. The living area flows out onto a paved courtyard and private garden area and secure open parking area for one vehicle behind an automatic gate. The bathroom is located on the lower level of the property, the ceiling is quite low here so anyone over +- 1.8m tall might struggle, but it has been completely modernised, including a new shower (glass panels are still to be installed). The two larger bedrooms are located opposite the front door, whilst the third bedroom is a bit smaller towards the rear of the property. There is a nifty clothes hanging solution above the staircase. There is an additional front yard area. Electric fence + alarm system. Pets will be considered by the landlord.
