Family home with income generating cottage

This beautiful and unique family home has been designed to effortlessly encapsulate modern, spacious, and ‘outdoor living’

With natural light flowing in through large north-facing windows, and the Durban climate carefully considered in the building's design, this home is low maintenance, energy efficient, and creates a peaceful atmosphere which is rooted in natural elements.

It has three level with the flat roof acting as a fourth story in its own right. The roof can be used as a leisure space to relax, or entertain, and survey the fantastic views over the Durban Harbour and surrounds.

Located on the third floor are 2 ample-sized, air-conditioned, bedrooms which look out into the treetops. Both bedrooms have their own bathroom, and the main bedroom has an expansive walk-through closet. A central mezzanine area on the third floor can easily be converted into a third bedroom or used as a lounge or study space making this level potentially have 3 bedrooms.

The second floor is an open plan dining, living and kitchen space with an enclosed, private study and separate guest toilet. The living area, with large floor to ceiling sliding glass windows, is designed to open onto a spacious deck overlooking the beautiful tropical garden. This deck has been designed, but not built - architectural sketch drawings are available.

The open plan ground floor opens out onto the garden and swimming pool and can be used as an additional entertainment area, lounge, children’s play area or guest bedroom. The ground floor has its own bathroom and could easily be partitioned into two rooms and could be used as work from home offices or an income generating space.

The tropical garden, which extends around and through the entire property, creates a private oasis which is filled with the sounds of birds throughout the day. This is perfect for a day’s relaxation next to the pool and for children of any age to enjoy.

At the top of the property there is another small tranquil garden and an enclosed garage for two cars with direct access onto the property. An additional study or flatlet can be built, as a second floor, on top of the garage - architectural sketch drawings are also available for this.

A spacious granny-flat is located at the bottom of the property. It has 1 air-conditioned bedroom, 2 bathrooms and an open plan air-conditioned lounge and kitchen with its own private garden, enclosed carport and separate entrance. The cottage is stepless and designed to accommodate a wheelchair. It is perfect for extended family or additional rental income.

Both the main house and the granny-flat have independent alarm systems for peace-of-mind.

There is a third building on the property located within a registered municipal servitude along the north boundary. This building is an electrical substation with independent access.

Nestled within a friendly, quiet area of the culturally buzzing suburb of Glenwood, this home benefits from the services of the Pigeon Valley UIP and is a short walk from the Pigeon Valley Nature Reserve itself.
