Borrowdale - House
$730,000
Ref.: OAS248069
Rarely does a property combine the prestige of a Borrowdale address with the commercial exposure of Harare Drive frontage - this one does both. Positioned just four houses from the Borrowdale Road junction, the property enjoys one of the most visible and accessible locations in Harare North, with the kind of road frontage that is simply unavailable in most established residential areas.
On a generous 1-acre stand, this is simultaneously a comfortable family home today and a compelling development or conversion opportunity for tomorrow — subject to the relevant town planning approvals.
The Property
Currently configured as a 4-bedroom residential home, the property is well proportioned and practically laid out:
- 4 bedrooms
- 2 spacious lounges
- Dining room
- Fitted kitchen
- Staff quarters
- Double lock-up garage
- Swimming pool and outdoor entertainment area
- Expansive paved driveway with ample parking
Utilities & Infrastructure
- Borehole water supply
- Solar system installation
- Durawall perimeter with secure gated access
The Location Opportunity
Harare Drive is one of Harare North's primary arterial routes, carrying significant daily traffic between the CBD, Borrowdale, and the northern suburbs. Properties with direct frontage on this corridor - particularly on stands of this size — are exceptionally rare and command a scarcity premium that is well documented in the market.
The property sits four houses from Borrowdale Road, effectively functioning as a near-corner property with dual-route accessibility. For an owner-occupier this means exceptional convenience. For an investor or developer, it means a site with genuine commercial conversion or mixed-use development potential in one of Harare's highest-footfall residential and commercial corridors.
Who This Property Suits
This property is well matched to three distinct buyer profiles: an established family seeking a generous, well-located Borrowdale home with strong lifestyle amenities; a business or professional practice seeking a prominent Harare Drive address with parking and visibility; or a developer or investor with an eye on the medium-term conversion and densification potential of a 1-acre Harare Drive stand.
