About this property
A compact bachelor apartment situated in a multi-storey residential building on a prominent corner in the South Beach precinct of Durban CBD, KwaZulu-Natal. The 37 m² open-plan unit combines living, sleeping, and dining areas in a single space, with a separate kitchenette alcove fitted with white base cabinets, a stainless-steel sink, tiled splashback, open wall shelving, and a prepaid electricity meter. White floor tiles run throughout the main area. The unit requires cosmetic renovation — walls show moisture marks and surfaces need refreshing — making it an attractive blank canvas for a hands-on investor or owner-occupier looking to add value.
The building offers 24-hour security, controlled access, and onsite management. From upper floors, views extend across the Durban CBD streetscape towards the beachfront skyline. The property sits directly on a busy taxi and public-transport corridor for effortless daily commuting. Oriental City Shopping Mall is approximately 63 m away, North Beach park is roughly 124 m away, and a KWIKSPAR supermarket is within 190 m, placing everyday conveniences within easy walking distance. The Maritime Business Institute and The Maritime School are both within 330 m, making the unit well suited to students or academic staff.
