Description

Priced to go! Don't lose out! This beautiful triple-storey home is in a prime location, high up on the hill with magnificent views of Melville, Rosebank and Sandton. With it facing north, the interior is comfortable and bright with natural light. On the balconies you can see miles out into the distance and enjoy a pure rush equal to living in a castle on a hill. Seeing is believing! Book your private viewing today. The house was built in the Art Décor era and has been with the current owners for over 30 years. They have retained many of the original features like the wooden floors, curved and coloured glass, wood panels and high ceilings to add to its charm. Over time they've also made improvements and recently installed smart technology to upgrade and modernize it further. A lucky buyer can now own this stately home and enjoy the benefit of all the cost saving features which blend in perfectly with the grand design of the house. This includes a state-of-the-art solar system plus complete switch over to a central gas water heating system and water storage system. With these features already in place, you no longer need to worry about power or water outages. It will have little or no effect on your household. Just imagine: peace of mind, lower utility bills and a better lifestyle. Ready and waiting for you! The overall size of the stand is 1983m² and consists of an upper and lower section. The house is built on the lower section with an under-roof area measuring approx. 439m². The upper section is still vacant but has been levelled and can be developed in future.
