Antique glass and wood doors open onto the eastern quarters, which comprise a bedroom looking out onto the garden, separate toilet, walk-in shower, fitted kitchen and a modest lounge. This area can be closed off to form a separate unit for rent, or it can house a family member needing privacy, independence or care.There is one veranda and two porches, affording views, breakfast nook and covered outside entertainment area.

There is also a small treated-wood and iron shed, suitable for garden tools and storage. The garden, with several decades of planting indigenous plants that thrive in the sandy soil, attracts birds and butterflies, also offers the unique feature of an amphitheatre that seats 80, with custom-made ceiling to floor Oregon doors opening out from the dining room. The walled courtyard has a fireplace, an arch and an open air outdoor cold-water shower ideal for sweltering Durban summers.The property, 1600 square metres, is fully walled and fenced, with electronic gate entrance and ample safe parking space. It was terraced for stability, comprising the top terrace, the large middle terrace where the house sits firmly on red brick foundations with well-made verandas, and a lower terrace large enough to build a garage.
