Zoned as Business B3, here is a rare find: Currently, a 4-bedroom home used as residence with separate buildings used to run two independent businesses.
The building structures are located on a massive 2 717 sqm erf, half of which is currently completely open and unused, lending much scope for extension and redevelopment. With the B3 rights, and with approval from Council, the following may be allowed on the premises: Bottle store, clinic, conference facility, dwellings and apartments, town housing, tourist accommodation, hotel, a place of assembly, worship, entertainment, or instruction, a recreational building, a service station, and trading services. The vacant area is open greenfield begging for redevelopment, offering loads of potential. With business rights, anything is possible
for the savvy investor.
The existing residence comprises an oversized kitchen with separate washroom/scullery, separate dining room, a bar/lounge/family room, four bedrooms, two bathrooms, braai room, private courtyard, garage for two cars, and of course the large expanse of open lawn at the back of the house, itself around 1 300 sqm in size. Of the four bedrooms, the largest is a main-en-suite, while the other bedrooms share a bathroom with toilet, shower, and bath. Another toilet facility is accessible from the passage joining all the bedrooms, one of which is currently used as an office/study.
The outbuildings on the premises house two separate businesses, the office space of which shares a kitchen and bathroom. These buildings have another large courtyard comprising two sections which have their own off-street entrance. The current tenants have a month-to-month lease agreement and are keen to stay on the premises generating an income for the new owner.
The erf and its building structures offer vast opportunities to keep as-is or to redevelop. In all, the entire premises is more than four times the size of a standard Kleinmond residential erf, and then some. The building area under roof is 345 sqm in extent. Current building plans are available to view by request.
