In Helensvale, Harare, a home set on 700sqm with four bedrooms and a feature set that earns its price on practical grounds.
The solar system and solar geyser mean your hot water and power draw less from the grid than most properties at this end of Harare. One borehole sits on the plot alongside water tanks between the two, the home carries its own water supply through whatever the municipality delivers or doesn't. That combination, on a 700sqm property, is worth noting before anything else.
Inside, the fitted kitchen has tiled countertops and built-in cabinetry, with a gas stove rather than a purely electric setup. Tiled flooring runs through the interior spaces. One lounge connects to a separate dining room, and the entertainment area extends the living footprint beyond the main rooms. Three bathrooms serve four bedrooms a ratio that works in daily use without queues at the door. Built-in cupboards feature throughout, so storage is built into the structure rather than added to it. Internet connection is already in place.
The boundary is walled and fenced, with a garden and mature trees visible from the yard. Paved areas run alongside the planted sections, and a veranda connects the interior to the outdoor space. A carport sits on the property.
The living areas carry high ceilings, with natural light coming in from multiple windows across the main rooms.
