Maison individuelle | Vente
Fusing old with new, this up-styled Walmer classic is a home for all seasons. Yesterdays' gleaming wooden flooring, graceful arches, high ceilings, vintage light switches and wood-burning fireplace keep the special character of the home, while the stunning renovated kitchen and bathrooms fit in with today's lifestyle. The elegantly colourful kitchen is a delight, with its blend of French Provence cabinetry and antique furniture. Warm, inviting and practical, it has space for a breakfast table to suite in the centre, gas hob, electric oven and large scullery. A floating counter next to the fridge allows for socializing with the chef or meals-on-the-go, when it's not being used as a work surface. Of the four generous bedrooms, one is in current use as an office. The first bedroom on the left can easily be converted into a lounge, and the current lounge would work well as a bedroom. Both bathrooms are really lovely: the main has a vintage bath with original brass taps and a vintage toilet; the second bathroom has high-end modern plumbware. The outdoor entertainment area incudes a covered veranda and sparkling swimming pool surrounded by a large, walled garden. Flat 1 is family-size, flat 2 is for a couple or single person. Together, as beautifully presented, fully fitted Air B&Bs, they generate a monthly income of between R12k and R15k. Both flats are registered on booking websites and their own Facebook page, and their rates are very competitive. Alternatively, they are ideal for grandparents or to rent out permanently. The furniture in the flats is available to purchase. Additional points of interest are a security system, all the wooden window frames are in great condition, and there's a Wendy house in the garden for storage or kids. Gracious, spacious and versatile, the very attractive property is a five minute drive to the Chief Dawid Stuurman International Airport, with good schools and shops in close proximity. Viewing is by appointment.
