Sample listings on a concept website. These homes are not for sale.
A freehold cottage with its pressed ceilings, timber floors and front stoep intact, on one of the quieter roads a short walk from Melville's cafes.
the house
The front door opens straight into the lounge, with the original pressed steel ceiling and a wide timber floor that has been sanded back rather than covered up. Both bedrooms face the garden and stay cool in summer.
The kitchen was redone about six years ago with plenty of cupboard space and room for a small table. The bathroom has a bath with a shower over it.
the stoep
A deep front stoep with the original red polished floor, wide enough for two chairs and a table, under the tin roof. It catches the morning sun and looks onto a jacaranda on the pavement.
the street
A quiet residential road where most houses have kept their stoeps. You hear 7th Street on a Friday night if the wind is right, but it is two blocks away and the road itself stays calm.
what you get
- Pressed steel ceilings
- Original timber floors
- Front stoep with red polished floor
