Description
Character-Filled Coastal Home with River Views in Umkomaas
Exclusive Sole Mandate to REMAX Coast and Country. Set in the established coastal town of Umkomaas, this spacious three-bedroom, two-bathroom home presents an exciting opportunity for a family looking for space, character, and the potential to create something truly special. Set on a generous 2,028m² erf, the property enjoys scenic views towards the Umkomaas River and surrounding landscape, with a private balcony off the main bedroom providing a wonderful place to enjoy the outlook. The home offers generously proportioned living areas, including a split-level lounge and dining room with glass sliding doors opening onto the veranda, allowing the living space to connect naturally with the outdoors. The kitchen is supported by a separate scullery, while the three bedrooms include a main bedroom with en-suite bathroom and balcony access. Two garages and additional parking provide ample vehicle accommodation, while the established garden is one of the property''s real treasures, with mature mango, avocado and banana trees adding shade, greenery and an unmistakable sense of an established family garden. An additional outbuilding with its own bathroom provides useful flexibility for guests, extended family, a work-from-home space or potential rental accommodation.
The home is currently configured with drywalled partitions to accommodate the owners together with two separate tenants. While this arrangement provides an immediate practical use of the space, removing the internal partitioning would reveal the home''s generous proportions and allow the property to be reimagined as a spacious family residence. This is a home for a buyer with vision-not because it lacks potential, but because it offers the opportunity to bring out the character that has developed over many years. With thoughtful finishing touches, some TLC and a clear vision, this property could be transformed into a beautiful family home that can be enjoyed for many years to come. The driveway is notably steep and should be considered when viewing, but the reward is the elevated position, established grounds and scenic outlook. Located close to Umkomaas'' beaches, shops, restaurants, golf, fishing and the renowned Aliwal Shoal, the area offers a relaxed coastal lifestyle with excellent recreational opportunities. Umkomaas is also conveniently positioned approximately 35 minutes from Durban and within easy reach of Scottburgh and Amanzimtoti. Priced to reflect the opportunity it presents, this property is ideally suited to buyers who can look beyond the current configuration and see the family home it has the potential to become.
