Most people who take a furnished let are not doing it for the furniture. They are doing it because they land on a Tuesday and start work on the Wednesday, and shopping for a fridge is nowhere on the list. Unit 14 is a three bedroom cluster at Edenburg Terrace that already works.
The kitchen holds everything that normally takes six weeks to arrive. Bosch ovens, an American fridge, a dishwasher and a washing machine already in place and an island long enough to eat at. It runs open into the lounge and dining area, and a full wall of stacking doors folds away onto a covered courtyard under a slatted roof. The courtyard is paved and walled. No lawn, nothing that needs a gardener.
Upstairs there are three bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and cupboards already fitted. The main bedroom is air conditioned and opens onto a balcony with room for a table and chairs. The landing is generous enough to carry a pyjama lounge, which is where the desk goes if you work from home a couple of days a week.
The ground floor also has a guest cloakroom, a staff room and a double automated garage. Edenburg Terrace is twenty four homes behind an access controlled gate on Stiglingh Road, electric fenced and trellis gated, a short drive from Rivonia Village Shopping Centre.
Furnished, from 1 October, at R32 000 a month excluding utilities on a double deposit. Speak to Garon Kolman about a viewing.
