Karl Vermeulen Harcourts Howick
Nestled in a picture-perfect setting (and on a freehold title of 1477sqm, more or less) this stunning home combines character and charm with the best of modern living. Built in the 1940's, the first floor invites you in with rich timber flooring through to the kitchen, lounge and dining area. French doors open out on two sides to an expansive balcony and patio that overlooks a beautifully secluded garden setting, and provides captivating sea views. This is the perfect spot to entertain family and friends in the hot summer months. There are two very generous double bedrooms on this level that are serviced by a family bathroom and separate guest toilet.
The top floor serves as a parent's retreat where you will find the master bedroom complete with an ensuite and an entire wall dedicated to wardrobe space. There is also a second living room which can be shut off when you are looking for some peace and quiet. At the top of the stairs is a large landing that would be ideal for a study nook or reading corner. From this floor the views are simply spectacular and you could be forgiven for not wanting to leave home at all.
Many of the original period features of the home have been retained, including stunning lead-light windows, ornate cornices and an open wood burner. These features have been further enhanced to cater for modern lifestyles, and the home now includes a heat-pump, new carpet and a fresh coat of paint.
A real bonus is the spacious basement that would be great as a rumpus room for the kids, or you could use it as a studio or a gym. The possibilities are endless. There is fantastic potential to develop the site (subject to council approval) or you can simply enjoy the large back yard as it is.
The only reason to step out of this comfortable and secluded haven is to visit all the amenities on offer including boutique shops and cafes in Howick Village, local beaches and nearby parks. Last but not least we have some of the best decile 10 schools in the area, including Shelly Park School and Somerville Intermediate.
This residence invites you to become a part of its rich history. Potential buyers will need to act quickly!
