Imagine arriving with nothing but a suitcase and walking into a home that is already beautiful.

This partially furnished first-floor apartment in Westville is dressed in warm, earthy tones from the floor to the curtains. Cream porcelain tiles run throughout, giving every room a calm, polished glow. Ultra modern light fixtures finish it with a quiet touch of luxury.

The open plan living space is the heart of the home.

A feature wall with a matching TV cabinet anchors the lounge, where a lounge suite with a day bed invites you to stretch out and stay. A matching rug and matching curtains pull the room together. The dining area is integrated, so dinner flows naturally into the evening. Air conditioning keeps the room comfortable all year.

Then slide open the doors. Your balcony looks out over a conservation forest area, with two chairs and a coffee table already waiting. This is where the day starts with coffee and ends with something stronger, and where the only soundtrack is birdsong.

The kitchen is open to the living space, so the cook never misses the conversation. It has built in cupboards, an oven, a hob and an extractor, a double basin sink with a modern mixer, and a double door fridge.

The main bedroom looks out over the same forest. A double bed with a beautiful dark headboard sits on a porcelain tiled floor, with a built in wardrobe, air conditioning, earth toned curtains and ultra modern lighting. You wake to green.

The second bedroom has a grey built in wardrobe with a matching chest of drawers and a tiled floor, and space for a double bed. It suits a guest, a child or a home office.

The bathroom feels like a boutique hotel.

Walls are tiled from top to bottom, and the basin sits above built in cupboards beneath a large wall mirror. The shower has a cobblestone floor and a frosted glass enclosure. The modern toilet comes with a bidet.

You are safe and settled. The complex has 24-hour security with access control, and there is an intercom in the lounge. Your own undercover parking bay comes with the apartment, and there is visitor parking for your guests.

And the life around you is effortless.

Westwood Mall is literally around the corner, with Checkers, Woolworths Food, Clicks, Virgin Active, Mugg & Bean and Kauai, and the University of KwaZulu-Natal Westville campus is nearby. It suits professionals, academics and couples who want to lock up and go.

R11 000 per month. Water included, with prepaid electricity. Unfortunately, no pets are permitted.
