KwaZulu-Natal, Howick, South Africa

This stunning property offers exceptional accommodation featuring a spacious three-bedroom main home plus a generous two-bedroom cottage. Here, the possibilities are endless—enjoy substantial rental income from a long-term tenant/tap into a profitable Airbnb opportunity/or provide a comfortable space for extended family.

The whole property has been lovingly updated by the current owner but, at the same time, keeps the charm of a classic home. There are gorgeous features like parquet flooring and a stunning bay window in the lounge—one of the home’s standout features. Other touches include a vibrant and welcoming front door, pretty flower boxes and shutters on the windows.

The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed with a breakfast counter (featuring built-in gas/electric hob), a spacious walk-in pantry and a separate utility room to keep appliances neatly out of sight – here you will find enough room for a double-door fridge, washing machine, and dishwasher.

The main lounge benefits from a wood-burning fireplace that creates a cozy atmosphere on chilly evenings. A few steps down leads to a bright second lounge/sunroom/or large study with built-in workspace. Large windows flood this room with natural light. There are folding doors that open onto a paved outdoor area and pretty garden.

All three bedrooms include built-in cupboards. The main bedroom features a generous walk-in closet and a modern en-suite bathroom with a shower. A second full bathroom, along with a separate toilet, serves the rest of the household.

The cottage is individually fenced and completely separate from the main house. It has great street appeal with a pretty entrance, lovely garden and outdoor seating area. Inside, you’ll find an open-plan lounge and kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom. It currently offers a full-time tenant (if rental income is desired) or alternatively, vacant occupation can be provided upon registration. The owner has also previously run it as a successful Airbnb.

The property is flat with an easy-to-maintain lawn and pretty flowerbeds, which are visible from a covered veranda at the front of the home. Secure access is provided via a motorised gate leading to shaded carports.

This home is ideally located close to Howick Pre-Primary and Howick Prep and makes for a fantastic option for families looking for space in a sought-after location.
