About this property

Situated at 40 Huxley Road in Athlone, Cape Town, this well-presented double-storey home offers over 238 m² of living space and an impressive range of features to suit families and investors alike.

The street-facing façade presents a crisp white-and-charcoal render finish with a slatted charcoal aluminium boundary wall and matching automated gate — a smart, contemporary kerb appeal complemented by lush palm and tropical plantings. A covered deck/carport canopy on the upper right adds further architectural interest.

Downstairs, the layout comprises three bedrooms, a tiled bathroom, a spacious lounge, and a large kitchen that flows through to a covered entertainment area. Stacking/folding doors open the living space completely onto a generous timber deck, allowing an easy indoor-outdoor lifestyle. A creeper-draped rear courtyard provides additional outdoor space.

A self-contained 38 m² separate-entrance unit — with its own kitchenette and bathroom — offers excellent rental income potential or can be configured as a tandem double garage.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom is extremely generous (visible in photographs as a loft-scale room with laminate flooring, downlights, and plantation-shutter blinds), and opens via stacking doors onto a large balcony with mountain views. The suite is completed by a walk-in closet, pyjama lounge, and a full bathroom with both bath and shower.

Location is a standout: Athlone Station is roughly 250 m away, Shoprite Athlone is within 320 m, St. Raphael's RC Primary School is just 54 m from the front door, and Carrington Park is an 85 m stroll — making this an exceptionally well-connected address for families and commuters.
