R2,650,000: 3 Bedroom House For Sale in Gansbaai Central
Some homes have something that modern construction simply cannot replicate. Built with solid craftsmanship, thick walls and beautiful original wooden floors, this well-maintained older home offers a sense of permanence, warmth and character that is becoming increasingly rare.
Designed to withstand the elements, the home remains naturally cool during the summer months and comfortably warm in winter. Its combination of traditional charm, generous proportions and practical features makes it a property to appreciate, cherish and make your own.
The home offers three spacious bedrooms, each fitted with built-in cupboards and the two guest rooms with blinds. The main bedroom enjoys the convenience of an en-suite bathroom, a particularly desirable feature in an older home, while a full family bathroom serves the remaining two bedrooms.
The main living area is accessed through the front entrance in Barnard Street. This inviting space is filled with natural warmth, receiving beautiful morning sunlight thanks to its north-facing orientation. A built-in braai at the far end of the room creates the perfect setting for relaxed family gatherings and entertaining, especially during the cooler winter months.
On the opposite side of the house, the kitchen is accessed from a charming undercover stoep, complete with an established, fruit-bearing guava tree. This delightful outdoor area features a second built-in braai, offering yet another space to enjoy relaxed outdoor living.
The kitchen provides ample cupboard space and a convenient breakfast nook, with the added benefit of an exceptionally large scullery and laundry room tucked away behind it.
GENEROUS GARAGING AND EXCEPTIONAL EXTRA SPACE
The property offers much more than meets the eye.
Accessed from Kano Street, the extra-large double garage will impress, particularly those with larger vehicles who will appreciate the generous dimensions and ease of access. A covered carport alongside the garages provides additional sheltered parking and is ideal for a caravan or other recreational vehicle.
Behind the carport is an extensive additional area currently utilised by the owners as a living and sleeping space, with a kitchenette and bathroom. It is important to note that, according to the approved building plans, this section is designated as storage space and a workroom, with a small bathroom. It is not approved as a separate residential flatlet. Nevertheless, it offers considerable additional space and exciting possibilities for storage, hobbies, a workshop or other uses, subject to the necessary approvals where applicable.
The generous dimensions of the property are a real highlight:
Main house: 153.2 m²
Garages and additional storage/workroom area: 110 m² combined
Covered carport: 25.5 m²
This is an impressive amount of accommodation, parking and additional space for a property in this price range.
