Freehold family living with income potential | Mill Park, R3,295m.

Set on a generous 1,012m² erf in one of Gqeberha's most established and sought-after suburbs, this full-title home at 17 Chelmsford Avenue offers space, privacy and genuine versatility close to the CBD and Walmer's amenity belt.

The main house opens into bright, generously proportioned living areas — a spacious lounge, separate dining room, and a dedicated entertainment and games room that flows onto an enclosed patio and verandah, ideal for both everyday family life and serious entertaining. The main house comprises four bedrooms — one currently set up as a snug home office — and two bathrooms.

A standout feature of this property is the self-contained income earning cottage — complete with its own kitchen, bedroom, bathroom and lounge. Whether you're after rental income, a space for extended family, or a private home office or studio, this adds real flexibility that's hard to find at this price point in Mill Park.

Outside, the lifestyle appeal continues: a swimming pool, established garden (including its own vegetable garden), and a covered patio-braai area built for long weekends. Parking is exceptional — secure paved parking for two vehicles on the driveway, plus a separate four-vehicle garage and workshop, offering space for a growing car collection, trailers, or a home workshop.

Sustainability runs through this property as literally as the stream that helps feed it. A watercourse borders the erf, supporting a lush, water-fed garden that stays green well beyond what municipal irrigation alone could manage — including the established vegetable garden. Rainwater harvesting and a backup water tank add a second layer of self-sufficiency, while a backup battery-inverter system keeps the home running through load-shedding without missing a beat. For a buyer looking at semi-off-grid living without sacrificing a central, established suburb, this is a rare combination in Mill Park.

Location is where this property really earns its keep. Mill Park sits within a short drive — often walking distance — of some of Gqeberha's best-regarded schools, including Grey Boys' Primary & High, Clarendon Park Primary, Collegiate Girls' High and Victoria Park High. Life St George's Private Hospital is just over a kilometre away, and everyday shopping is covered by the Five Ways, Sixth Avenue and The Avenues shopping centres, all within 1.5km.
