Charming Charater-Filled Family Home

Tri-Mandate:
This early 20th-century residence blends timeless charm with an eclectic mix of architectural elements. Distinctive Cape Dutch revival gables frame a graceful semi-circular veranda, adding to the home’s unique street appeal. Historically, the property has also served as a medical practice with consulting rooms, offering excellent versatility.

Beautifully maintained, the home showcases a wealth of original features, including high ceilings and wooden floors (currently carpeted), creating a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout.

A welcoming front patio leads into a spacious lounge, complete with an Esse fireplace and built-in cupboards, flowing seamlessly into the dining room, which opens onto its own private patio via double doors.

The accommodation comprises five bedrooms. Two of the bedrooms share a private, covered patio overlooking the garden. The fifth bedroom is a fully self-contained guest suite with its own entrance, lounge area, en-suite bathroom, and kitchenette—ideal for use as a consulting room, home office, or Airbnb rental. Previously known as “Rose Cottage,” it offers excellent income-generating potential.

The kitchen is well-appointed with a walk-in pantry and a separate, interleading laundry.
Additional features include a fully walled property, double garage, burglar bars and security gates, and off-street parking for up to four vehicles. The home is also pet-friendly.

Conveniently located within walking distance of local amenities, this generous property is set on a 2,285 m² stand, offering space, character, and opportunity.
