You have outgrown your home. That much you know. What you are less sure about is whether the next move has to be a freehold house, with the erf that comes attached to it, the gate motor that is now yours alone, the perimeter you maintain yourself, the garden that quietly claims your Saturdays. Everything you have looked at so far has asked you to choose: the space of a house, or the ease of a complex.
This one does not make you choose.
It sits at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, one of only eight units, all 196sqm of it on a single level. Four bedrooms run down their own passage, far enough from the living room that the evening belongs to you again. The primary is air-conditioned, with a built-in dresser and its own en-suite. The fourth is the smallest, which is why it works so well as a playroom, a homework room, or the home office that finally has a door. There is a separate study above the garage too, private in a way that a corner of the lounge never is.
The galley-style kitchen is high-quality oak and granite, with a ceran stove, eye-level oven, and a scullery and laundry room adjoining it. A back door leads straight out to the garage and the domestic accommodation. A serving hatch opens through to the dining room. Close the French doors and dinner becomes an occasion. Open the ones off the lounge and the whole house moves out onto the patio, the sundeck, the dip pool and the built-in braai, with Westville falling away below you in treetops.
Your own pool. Your own braai. A garden that is manicured and indigenous, with well-established cycads. Big enough for the dogs, small enough to still be a pleasure. Solar, inverter, battery and Jojo tank keep the lights and the water on.
Deutsche Schule is 450m from the gate. Star College, Atholl Heights Primary and Kainon are all inside the school run.
