4 Bedroom House For Sale in Ferndale
Description
126 Oxford Street sits on 1 491 m² where Oxford meets the Hans Strijdom mobility spine. The erf carries Special use rights under Amendment Scheme 1818 - dwelling house offices in the existing buildings. Rights like these are not issued freely and cannot be recreated on a neighbouring stand.
The home is solid and generous. Entrance hall opens to a lounge and dining room with a fireplace. Four bedrooms, three bathrooms, main en-suite. A separate study or office. Spacious kitchen with pantry, separate laundry. A courtyard sits at the centre of the plan.
Outside, the garden is manicured front and back, with a pool and mature planting. A workshop stands alongside two garages - convert the workshop and you have four. Add a four-car carport and open standing for fifteen vehicles or more. Staff accommodation with room, toilet and bathroom. A 2 500 litre JoJo tank runs off municipal supply, plumbed in.
The existing building measures 407 m² across a single storey. Floor area ratio on the erf is 0.15, so this footprint exists as an approved right rather than something a new owner could rebuild at scale. Buy it for what stands here.
Offices are permitted under the current Special rights. Other uses - a workshop trade, an educational or after-care facility, a place of worship, other business use - are possible subject to application to City of Johannesburg Town Planning and the required approvals. A site development plan drawn to 1:200 must be submitted to Council, with adjoining owners given opportunity to comment, before building plans are approved.
