Description
Set on 2 acres in the highly sought-after eastern side of Glen Lorne, this property with proximity to Imba Tombo (800m), Manna Safari Lodge (600m), and Cardinals Corner Mall (5.5km) adds convenience while retaining exclusivity offers exceptional land value, privacy, and direct frontage to Gletwyn Dam. The neighbourhood is controlled by a 24-hour security boom, has reliable tarred roads, and is known for well-maintained homes, mature trees, and quiet surroundings.
The standout feature of the property is its dam frontage, enhanced by riparian rights of access, open views, and strong bird life. The land itself offers excellent redevelopment potential, whether for a premium home or a multi-unit concept.
Utilities include a prolific borehole, 11,000L water storage, ZESA power, and a solar system that is nearly off-grid. A septic tank system is in place and internet connectivity is available. There are triple staff quarters to support larger households or development activities.
Investment & Development Potential:
Given its size and location, the property presents strong investment prospects. One could consider subdividing into four high-value cluster stands, 3 with direct dam-front stands with potentially high resale value as vacant land - more-so for completed cluster homes.
Of course the site is also well positioned for a landmark forever home for buyers seeking large land with waterfront appeal.
The main house (approx. 285 sqm) is a single-story structure that comprises 4 bedrooms, including a main ensuite, 2 bathrooms, 2 lounges, a dining room, and a kitchen. Flooring is a mix of tiles and carpet. A swimming pool sits close to the house and the property is secured by an automated gate and full fencing.
A valuable addition is the separate 3-bedroom cottage (about 120 sqm) with 2 bathrooms, ideal for guests, extended family, or rental opportunities. This is complemented by an extra 50 sqm studio with its own ensuite bathroom, creating a flexible space for a home office, creative studio, or additional accommodation.
