If you have been searching for an urban sanctuary that masterfully balances historical charm with the pulse of Durban’s most dynamic waterfront, your search ends here.

Welcome to this expansive, one-bedroom residence on the prestigious Margaret Mncadi Avenue (formerly Victoria Embankment). This is not merely an apartment; it is a front-row seat to the city’s most coveted vista.

Elevated Urban Living
Situated directly opposite the iconic entrance to the Durban Harbour, this residence captures the very essence of coastal metropolitan living. From your 9th floor vantage point, you enjoy an uninterrupted, 180-degree panorama of the harbour activity and the lush, historic corridor of the Embankment. It is bright, sophisticated, and undeniably timeless.

A Masterclass in Flow
Upon entry, the sheer volume of the lounge and dining area is immediately apparent.

Spanning the width of the unit, a full-glass facade - framed in modern, sleek aluminium - acts as a living portrait of the harbour. The original parquet flooring has been preserved, adding an organic, rich warmth that balances the modern transparency of the glass.

A distinctive "hole in the wall," finished with exquisite bespoke wooden framing, creates a sophisticated architectural bridge between the lounge and the kitchen. It is an intentional design detail that encourages effortless entertaining.

The Kitchen is perfectly appointed for the discerning resident, featuring a tactile wooden countertop, classic built-in cabinetry, and a splash zone elegantly tiled for both functionality and aesthetic appeal.

Unrivaled Harbor Views is your treat from the bedroom. A tranquil escape of generous proportions. Like the living area, it showcases the signature parquet flooring and vintage, character-rich cabinetry that anchors the space in history.

You are surrounded by high-end craftsmanship, from the custom wooden door frames to the matching, hand-finished skirting.

A dedicated, integrated desk surface offers a perfect moment of refined functionality - whether utilised as a workspace or a private vanity. Every morning, you wake to the same stunning harbour views that define the rest of the home.

You are positioned at the confluence of convenience and culture.

You are mere steps away from the refined eateries and leisure destinations of the harbour.

Should the city call, you are within walking distance of the central shopping artery and major public transport nodes.

When travel is required, you are precisely two minutes from the M4 South, providing seamless access to the Berea and beyond.
