West Avenue

Randburg, Gauteng 2194

Looking for a roommate who appreciates good bones, good light, and never having to walk far for wine or biltong.

This spacious bedroom sits in a three-bedroom apartment that’s basically built on top of its own tiny ecosystem of convenience. Downstairs you’ll find a shopping centre with a butchery and liquor store — so “I forgot to defrost anything” and “we’re out of wine” are no longer emergencies, just short trips downstairs in your slippers.

Next door, a service station moonlighting as a mini life-admin hub: FNB and Nedbank ATMs plus a Woolworths convenience shop, for those “I just need one thing” runs that somehow always happen at 9pm.

The building itself is safe, well-located along a main road, with easy highway access — so whether you’re commuting, escaping for a weekend, or just love the idea of never being stuck, you’re sorted.

Ideal for someone tidy, easygoing, and unbothered by the fact that snacks are now dangerously accessible.

Yes, I’m posting this on behalf of my Auntie — she’s got the apartment, the charm, and zero patience for advert admin, so I’ve been recruited.

She lives here on her own (well, “on her own” is relative — I live close by and pop in often enough that I basically have visiting rights). The second bedroom already has two younger guys renting, who’ve unofficially been adopted as her sons at this point. So you’d be joining a household that’s already got a bit of family energy to it, not just a random flatshare.

If you’re someone who doesn’t mind the occasional aunty check-in or being informally absorbed into the family, you’ll fit right in.
