Heritage home with cottage in Germiston to go under hammer
Valuable cycad collection and house contents to be sold separately
AT NOON next Sunday Rand Realty will call for bids on site for a “prestige, palatial heritage home” in Germiston which is being sold with its contents, power generator and more than 30 valuable cycads.
The 450m² house is on more than 7 300m² of park-like gardens at 24 Chapman Road, in the northern part of Ekurhuleni’s Klippoortje Agricultural Lots, about 17km south-east of the Joburg CBD. It is close to Germiston Lake, Rand Airport, Airport Park and the N17 and N3 highways.
Colin Sidelsky, director of Rand Realty, regards the property as “truly exceptional”.
“Firstly, it is a haven. The house is well secured with security gates, burglar bars and an automated entrance gate and alarm system.
“The imposing residence, which is in excellent condition, is a master-built Cape Dutch family home and there is also a two-bedroom cottage on site. We have already had exceptional interest in the sale.”
The main residence consists of:
Four bedrooms (main ensuite). Three bathrooms. Lounge. Dining room. Study. Games room. Modern kitchen. Guest toilet. Walk-in safe. Swimming pool. Steam bath. Outside there’s an 80m² two-bedroom cottage (also with walk-in safe), staff quarters and a triple garage with ample driveway parking space.
A feature of the lush manicured garden with fish pond is 30 to 40 valuable cycads which, together with the house’s contents and a generator, will be sold separately.
Public viewing for the sale is this Sunday from 2pm to 4pm, or by call Sasha on 0648866882 or Dean on 0823899777 to ar-
