About this property

Woza Woza! Experience This Essenwood Exclusive Home As you enter, you aren’t just walking into a house; you’re stepping into a piece of South African heritage that has aged like a fine wine—getting better, bolder, and more refined with every passing year. This towering masterpiece soars above the Essenwood skyline, standing as tall and proud as a mighty oak. The facade does true justice to its history, maintaining its classic charm while commanding a prime position in one of the city's most sought-after circles. It’s a home that keeps it real, blending timeless elegance with that unmistakable "soft life" comfort that only a property of this stature can provide. The grounds are masterfully planned to center around the heart of the home: a sparkling pool and a front yard made for those legendary family braais. You can lose yourself in the quiet reflection areas for some peace of mind, then head over to the massive courtyard situated directly above the parking area—a space just begging for a marquee or a big outdoor vibe. Adding to the "kasi-style" hospitality, a neat granny cottage sits right by the pool, offering a private escape for guests or a perfect teenage pad, ensuring that everyone from Gogo to the grandkids has their own space to relax. Currently operating as a successful Bed & Breakfast, the property is designed so that every bedroom is a full suite featuring its own shower and toilet. This setup makes it an investor’s dream for rental income, yet the layout is so seamless that it can easily transition into a massive, family-friendly sanctuary with little to no changes required. As you walk through the courtyard, you are welcomed by solid suspended wooden flooring and professional finishes that scream Essenwood elegance, while the split-level design offers the perfect blueprint for dual-living or a high-end "work from home" lifestyle. Location is everything, and this gem puts you right in the mix of Durban’s finest offerings. You’re just a short drive from the golden sands and warm Indian Ocean of the beachfront, perfect for a morning dip or a sunset stroll on the promenade. This home offers the best of both worlds: the peaceful, leafy heritage of Essenwood and the vibrant energy of the coast just down the road. This is more than just a building; it’s a soulful, sturdy residence ready for its next chapter. To see this legendary property for yourself, contact us today and let’s make it yours!
