Property description

Some homes simply have a lovely feeling about them - and this is one of them.

Set in sought-after Melville, this warm and inviting three-bedroom home combines generous living spaces, established gardens, excellent entertaining areas and a separate one-bedroom cottage, with the added attraction of lovely views across Melville.

Step through the entrance hall and the home opens naturally into the lounge and dining room. Pressed ceilings add a wonderful sense of character, while skylights bring additional natural light into the home.

The kitchen is spacious and practical, with ample cupboard space, tiled finishes and a gas stove. A gas geyser adds further convenience.

There are three bedrooms, with the main bedroom enjoying an en-suite bathroom complete with bath, bidet and toilet. A versatile study or additional bedroom features a fireplace, making it a cosy space for working, reading or relaxing.

The enclosed patio provides an ideal additional entertainment area, while the established garden wraps around the house. A rockery adds interest to the garden, with plenty of space for summer braais, outdoor gatherings or simply enjoying a quiet evening at home.

The separate one-bedroom cottage adds another dimension to the property. It includes a bathroom with shower and a dedicated laundry room, with the washing machine positioned at a comfortable height - a small but very welcome practical touch.

The cottage also has its own rooftop braai area, accessed directly from the garden, offering a wonderful spot for entertaining while taking in the views across Melville.

Privacy is well considered, with high perimeter walls creating a secluded feel around the property. A cellar provides useful additional storage, while JoJo tanks provide a valuable water backup.

A double garage, motorised gate and security cameras add to the practicality and security of the property.

Location adds another important advantage. The home is conveniently situated close to Wits University and UJ, with shops and public transport, including bus routes, within easy reach.

This is a home with character, generous accommodation and genuine versatility. From the pressed ceilings and skylights to the fireplace, cellar, established garden and separate cottage, it offers a combination of charm and practical features that make it feel distinctly different.

Add the Melville views, private garden and excellent location, and you have a home with plenty to enjoy - both inside and out.
