Welcome to The Wellstead, a historic double-story mansion in Wynberg, one of the area's first established homes. The property is securely gated with electric fencing and offers ample parking for multiple cars. For added peace of mind, private security patrols the street nightly and is available for emergencies. Enjoy the spacious patio, ideal for relaxing or a traditional braai. With its rich heritage and modern amenities, The Wellstead is the perfect retreat in a charming neighborhood.
I'm a full-time trader with an Honours degree in Commerce. I live upstairs in my mansion, where I have my own private bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom. The downstairs area is set up exclusively for guests, offering a private bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom for your comfort and convenience. If you need any assistance or have questions, feel free to reach out. If you're also interested in trading advice, I'm happy to help as well.
