In Glaudina, Harare, a walled and fenced home sits on a 200sqm plot with its own borehole and water tanks. A combination that means the taps stay running regardless of what municipal supply is doing on any given day.
Inside, three bedrooms and two bathrooms serve a household comfortably, with tiled floors running through the living areas. One lounge and a separate dining room give the layout some breathing room. Meals and the evening's sitting don't compete for the same space. The kitchen comes fitted with cabinets and a countertop workspace that makes day-to-day cooking practical rather than a squeeze.
Security bars are fitted to the windows throughout, and the walled and fenced boundary means the plot is properly enclosed rather than open to the street.
A veranda adds a covered outdoor transition between the house and the yard. At the rear, a separate brick-built structure extends the footprint of the property beyond the main residence.
