If you've been sleeping on Victoria Embankment, wake up.

This one's got the marina in your lounge and two yacht clubs as your view.

Second floor, one bedroom, 42m² of "why would I live anywhere else."

Walk in and the kitchen greets you first - built-in cupboards, granite counter top, sink with mixer, tiled floor, all business. Then that hole-in-the-wall with the wood trim and granite top opens straight into a super spacious, south-east facing lounge with a top-to-bottom glass facade.

Parquet floors underneath. Durban marina, two yacht clubs and a restaurant right there in front of you - this isn't a view, it's a lifestyle upgrade.

The bedroom keeps the parquet going, built-in cupboards, and east-facing windows that catch first light - fits a double bed comfortably, and you wake up looking out over the Victoria Embankment. Bathroom's got a bathtub, toilet, basin, and brown stone-pattern tiled floors.

Location? Unmatched.

Wilson's Wharf, 9th Avenue Restaurant, Roma Revolving Restaurant, and the upmarket Overlook 9th Avenue are all on your doorstep. Smith Street's shopping and transport hub is close by, the M4 southbound gets you moving fast, and Durban Harbour and Point Waterfront are basically an extension of your address.
