About this property

Situated in the well-established Glenwood suburb of Durban, this renovated 2-bedroom apartment in Charlton Court offers a compelling mix of classic character and modern updates. The 99 m² unit features an open-plan lounge and dining area with gleaming parquet flooring, air-conditioning, and a ceiling fan — bathed in natural light from large aluminium-framed windows that frame a generous city-skyline view stretching towards the Durban CBD. The updated kitchen is well-appointed with dark wood cabinetry, frosted glass upper cupboards, a ceran hob and eye-level oven, extractor fan, double stainless-steel sink, and a parquet-tiled floor. Two comfortable bedrooms and a bathroom complete the internal layout. The unit comes with a secure lock-up garage in the on-site garage block — a rare convenience at this price point. Charlton Court is a mid-rise brick-and-plaster building set in landscaped grounds with mature palms and tropical plantings. The location is exceptionally walkable: Kingsley Gardens park is roughly 110 m away, The Glenwood Bakery is around 145 m, and Berea Centre shopping mall is within 530 m. Ideal for first-time buyers, small families, or buy-to-let investors seeking a move-in-ready property in a vibrant Durban suburb.
