About this property
Situated in the well-known Sahara Sands building at 25 Sahara Sands, North Beach, this neatly presented 77 m² apartment offers an appealing blend of coastal lifestyle and city convenience in the heart of Durban's beachfront precinct.
The flat is sold fully furnished and comprises a generous master suite with a private dressing room, a second bedroom (currently configured as an open sleeping area with built-in overhead cupboards and direct sea glimpses through timber-slatted blinds), and a full bathroom fitted with both a bathtub and shower. The open-plan lounge and dining area is light and spacious, finished in large-format white floor tiles, and comes with a wall-mounted flat-screen television already in situ. A separate kitchen and a secure undercover parking bay round out the interior offering.
From the upper floors, residents enjoy side sea views across the Indian Ocean and the vibrant North Beach skyline — clearly visible in the outlook photographs. The building itself rises approximately 20 storeys and features four lifts, a communal swimming pool, and controlled perimeter access.
For daily convenience, SPAR Northbeach is roughly 344 m away, the Amphitheatre Gardens and lawns are only 125 m from the front door, and a cluster of restaurants including The Grill Jichana Durban (86 m) and Vigour & Verve (132 m) are within easy walking distance. North Beach itself is approximately 411 m away, making this an ideal lock-up-and-go retreat or buy-to-let investment in a high-demand coastal node.
