3 Bedroom House in Winterstrand

Some homes you buy. This one you move into and immediately feel like you''re on holiday.

Freshly renovated from top to bottom, this single-level Winterstrand home puts the ocean in your line of sight from the moment you walk in the front door. The open-plan living area runs the width of the house, tiled throughout, cooled by ceiling fans, and opens through sliding doors onto a generous timber deck where the sea fills the horizon. Morning coffee, sundowners, or a long lazy Sunday the deck does all three beautifully.

The kitchen is brand new: granite tops, a breakfast bar for casual meals, under-counter oven and hob with extractor, and cupboard space that will genuinely surprise you. A separate scullerylaundry keeps the mess out of sight and has its own back-door access.

Three comfortable bedrooms, all with their own bathrooms, built-in cupboards and ceiling fans. The main enjoys its own en-suite with a walk-in shower and floating vanity, as does the second main en-suite, while the third bathroom offers a full bath, basin and toilet.

Outside, a covered brick entertainment area with a built-in braai sits ready for the East London lifestyle, with a level lawn for children and pets, a lock-up garage and a paved driveway with ample off-street parking.

Winterstrand is that rare thing a quiet coastal pocket with the beach on your doorstep and East London''s shops and schools a short drive away. Whether it''s a permanent home, a holiday escape or a solid rental investment, this one ticks the boxes.
