About this property

Perfectly positioned in the heart of Morningside, Durban, this beautifully renovated one-bedroom apartment on an upper floor offers an ideal blend of comfort, convenience, and contemporary living within a compact 64 m² floor plan.

The open-plan lounge and dining area are generously proportioned, filled with natural light from wrap-around corner windows fitted with venetian blinds, and deliver partial views over neighbouring rooftops and treetops — including glimpses of Durban's green canopy. The warm, earthy colour palette, tiled floors, and crown moulding give the living space a polished yet relaxed character. A dedicated dining nook with a four-seater timber table sits at the corner window, making the most of the elevated outlook.

The renovated kitchen flows seamlessly into the living area via an open archway, featuring granite-look countertops, white cabinetry with under-counter appliances (oven and gas hob), a stainless-steel fridge, and pendant lighting overhead. A breakfast bar peninsula separates the kitchen from the living space with ease. An air conditioner ensures year-round comfort.

The spacious bedroom features built-in cupboards and a ceiling fan, while the stylishly renovated bathroom includes a double shower, toilet, and basin. Parking and a garage are included.

The apartment is accessed via an external brick-lined corridor that leads directly to your front door — a classic Durban apartment building feature.

The location is outstanding: the Woolworths Foodstop at Engen Mitchell Park is under 70 m away, Mitchell Park and its zoo are within 360 m, Morningside Primary School is roughly 430 m away, and the Now Coffee Clubhouse café is a 313 m stroll. Top-rated schools, hospitals, and shopping centres are all reachable within minutes.
