4 Bedroom House in Morningside
Timeless Elegance in the Heart of Morningside
4 Bedrooms | 5.5 Bathrooms | Guest Suite | Pool | 4-Car Garage
Built in 1928, this gracious double-storey mansion stands proudly in one of Morningsides most sought-after avenues. Set amidst lush, tropical gardens, this beautifully preserved home offers a rare combination of classic architecture, modern finishes, and breathtaking panoramic views stretching from Umhlanga to the Bluff.
A dramatic staircase leads through manicured greenery to the home''s grand entrance. Inside, high ceilings and generously proportioned rooms offer an immediate sense of space and elegance. The open-plan formal lounge opens onto a wide front balcony - perfect for entertaining or simply soaking in the expansive views. The adjacent formal dining room and well-appointed kitchen flow effortlessly, designed to suit both everyday family living and grand-scale entertaining. A spacious study or TV lounge, complete with built-in bookshelves and a striking feature window, adds to the home''s timeless charm.
Upstairs, four luxurious en-suite bedrooms await. The magnificent main suite, occupying a corner position, features a spacious walk-in dressing room and a lavish bathroom. Attention to security is paramount: an automatic door secures the upstairs wing at night, and all windows are fitted with additional burglar proofing for complete peace of mind.
On the lower level, a substantial basement includes a full guest suite, a utility room currently used as a gym, a wine cellar, and additional storage areas. The pool area, privately positioned off to the side of the home, is accessible from both the kitchen and the basement - an ideal retreat for relaxing or hosting guests. A level lawn offers a safe and beautiful play area for children or the perfect setting for outdoor events.
Separate from the main house, a fully self-contained guest suite (or ideal home office/staff quarters) features a lounge, bedroom, and bathroom, all accessed from the entrance courtyard.
Additional features include garaging for four vehicles at road level and impeccable attention to detail throughout.
This is a rare opportunity to own an extraordinary residence that seamlessly blends old-world charm with contemporary comfort. Perfect for the discerning buyer seeking luxury, privacy, and timeless appeal in one of Durbans premier suburbs.
