About this property
This semi-detached house in Merewent, Durban, presents an excellent opportunity for both owner-occupiers and investors. The property is well-secured with burglar bars and a perimeter fence, and offers a generous floor area of 344 m² across the main dwelling and a separate income-generating cottage.
The main house features a fitted kitchen, a separate dining room with original parquet flooring and a pendant chandelier, a large lounge, three bedrooms, and two bathrooms. The kitchens — one in the main house and one serving the cottage — are fitted with white cabinetry, tiled splashbacks, and ample counter space. A pleasant garden with a lawn and established plantings adjoins the property, and there are three parking spaces (evidenced by garages/parking areas visible from the street).
The cottage provides a self-contained income stream, making this an attractive buy-to-let or live-and-earn proposition. Everyday conveniences are right on the doorstep: YHM Supermarket is approximately 100 m away, Settlers Primary School is roughly 190 m away, and a pharmacy is within 600 m. PR Pather Secondary School is just over 700 m from the property.
