House for sale in Glenhurd

This classic home in Glenhurd, combines timeless character with modern technology and a desirable address. It borders on a peaceful valley in a quiet street, making it ideal for people who love nature and a calm, quiet lifestyle in the middle of busy Port Elizabeth. And it's a few metres from the golf course - perfect for golfers, walkers, cyclists and dog lovers – with a choice of good schools close by.

The home offers three tranquil bedrooms, two full bathrooms (main en suite), three living areas, a modern open plan kitchen with a separate laundry, a fitted study, and a double garage.

Equipped with a gas hob, extractor fan and electric oven, as well as beautiful rosewood countertops that give the space a luxurious touch, the kitchen is a dream for the family chef. And then there are the inviting living rooms. In addition to the dining room, there's a lounge near the entrance that works well as a reception room or cosy winter retreat, and a larger family living room with a gas fireplace for everyday living and relaxed entertaining. From here, doors open onto a large, enclosed patio with a built in braai and vertical blinds for when the weather turns. It overlooks the terraced, treed, waterwise garden and the valley beyond – the ultimate spot for birdwatching, sipping sundowners while soaking in the sunsets and al fresco hosting. Both the patio and the deck are constructed from tropical hardwood, so very little maintenance is required, and they're surrounded by a wooden balustrade with a gate and staircase that leads into the garden and pool.

All the interior floors are solid hardwood, which adds warmth and character throughout, and both bathrooms boast tiled floors. Adding to the home's luxe appeal are well-insulated ceilings, and newly painted interior walls, ceilings, doors, windows (inside and out) and skirtings. More reasons to fall in love with this special property are the solar panel system linked to an inverter and battery keeping the electricity bill very low, three neatly hidden rain water tanks below the deck, and a comprehensive security system linked to an armed response company for absolute peace of mind.

This is a home that has been loved, cared for and kept in excellent condition - truly ready to move in without the trouble of renovating.
