About this property

This cheerful three-bedroom apartment in Sydenham, Durban, offers a practical multi-level layout ideal for young families or savvy investors. Situated within a well-maintained complex with a distinctive pink-and-grey facade, the unit spans two storeys: the main living areas and kitchen occupy the ground level, while the loft bedroom — accessed via a warm timber staircase with a mezzanine balustrade — adds character and versatility to the upper level.

The kitchen is well-appointed with rich warm-toned wooden cabinetry (glass-fronted upper display cupboards and solid lower units), a dark granite-effect worktop, tiled backsplash, freestanding Defy electric stove with oven, extractor fan, and a stainless-steel sink under a burglar-barred window. Dark marbled ceramic floor tiles complete the look. The open-plan dining/lounge area enjoys natural light through a security-gated sliding door leading to a small balcony, and features exposed timber roof trusses that give the space a lofty, airy feel.

Bedrooms 1 and 2 include extensive built-in wardrobes. The bathroom is fully tiled and fitted with a bathtub, toilet, and basin. Security is well considered throughout: burglar bars on all windows, a security gate, complex access gate, and electric fencing. Covered and open parking bays are available within the complex, and residents enjoy access to a communal swimming pool.

The location is exceptionally convenient — Centenary Secondary School is approximately 130 m away, Checksave supermarket around 500 m, Sifa Hospital roughly 465 m, and Thekwini TVET College within 520 m. Overport Park is a short stroll at about 600 m, offering a green retreat close to home.
