Exclusive Instructions! Nestled in a quiet square on a generous 535m² erf, and ideally positioned just one road behind the well-known Allenby Drive, this versatile property offers far more than meets the eye. The main home features three comfortable bedrooms, a beautifully modern family bathroom with bath, shower and double vanity, a separate guest toilet, a welcoming lounge with entrance into a sunroom and a fully fitted kitchen equipped with an oven, hob, extractor fan and ample cupboard space. Parking behind garage door for 6 cars besides parking on the property off street. But what truly sets this property apart is the additional accommodation already built onto the home. With two generously sized bedrooms and a bathroom, this separate section has its own access from the side of the property, making it ideal for extended family or offering excellent potential to create a separate entrance/dual-living unit. Imagine having Mum and Dad close by, but with their own private space — or creating a potential rental opportunity without compromising the main home. The possibilities continue with the large converted garage, currently being enjoyed as an impressive man cave and entertainment area, complete with a substantial bar area. This space could also be converted back and incorporated into the additional accommodation, creating an even more comprehensive second dwelling. In fact, with the right conversion, this property has the potential to function as two homes on one generous erf. And there’s still valuable space on both sides of the property, giving the new owner further options for parking, entertaining, extensions or future improvements. 535m² of land. 3 bedrooms in the main home. 2 additional bedrooms and a bathroom. Entertainment/man-cave space. Separate access. Dual-living potential. Quiet square. One road from Allenby Drive. This is a property that offers flexibility, space and opportunity — perfect for a family looking for room to grow, multigenerational living, or someone wanting to explore an additional income stream.
