Art Deco enthusiasts will immediately fall in love with this immaculate home, completely authentic to the original design. The property is situated on a gentle slope in Auckland Park, overlooking the suburb of Melville, with the Jozi skyline as a backdrop. The immediate location is lined with magnificent mansions, being home to academics and health professionals. Auckland Park is vibrant and cosmopolitan. It is well known as the location of The South African Broadcasting Corporation headquarters, in close proximity to The University of Witwatersrand, The University of Johannesburg, Helen Joseph Hospital, Netcare Milpark Hospital, Netcare Rehabilitation Hospital and The Deutshe Internationale Schule Johannesburg.
The home offers a lifestyle of yesteryear. It is an entertainer's dream home with a winter lounge, as well as a sunny summer lounge leading to the patio and well established landscaped garden, eco pool and views of the city. Also on ground level is a guest WC, formal study, dining room, kitchen, scullery, laundry, art studio/flatlet with a shower, and a festively decorated covered courtyard.

An equipped borehole, gas geysers, Egoli gas and a solar power solution makes it possible for off-grid living. An imposing arrival and a north facing orientation are important features which could easily be overlooked.
