2 Bed House in Kommetjie

Welcome to 56 Heron Circle, bordering the Bokramspruit river on the corner of Flamingo Drive and Heron Circle. It's a short 3 min walk to the beach along the river.

Buildings consist of a neat two bedroom, one bathroom, single-storey house with open plan kitchen and living area, an extension between house & single garage. Entertain on the paved north side of the house with built-in braai, small pool and garden. On the south side is the shed area for garden tools, firewood, a workshop, etc.

There is a matching face-brick perimeter wall with wood extensions for added privacy, pet friendliness and security. A Buffalo and Kweek lawn around the house does well in the winter low light and is water wise, offering a soft yet tough ground cover that is more user friendly and easier to maintain than alternatives.

Established indigenous trees & others: 3 Fan Palms, large Solitaire Palm, Aloe Bainsii (tree aloe), Fiddlewood, Waterbessieboom, Wild Olive, Carob (St Johns Bread), Camphors, Eugenias, Bay Leaf, Milkwood, Coastal Oak.

Flexible with potential... two entrances: 56 Heron Circle & 16 Flamingo Drive. Potential sea view down the river to Sunset Reef if one goes up one storey, with palm fronds above.

The property gets early morning light & late evening sun (with one direct neighbour to the south) and has a relaxed feeling of space and nature. Take in the smell and sound of the sea on those quiet light onshore evenings.

The soil has been enriched over the years by composting, with seasonal Rocket and Gooseberries coming up. If you're into it, you will be well set up to grow your own food & attract even more birds with your gardening.

The grass-covered verge around property is in good condition, has been left accessible to all, with Wild Olive trees for shade. Camphor trees & a large Milkwood tree offer privacy on the riverside boundary.

Dr Du Toit's home and practise is across the road on Flamingo Drive. Enjoy extra parking on the verge outside, and off-street parking in front of the garage.
