What does R100m Park Avenue Estate include?

The Park Avenue estate spans 8,527 square metres and carries hotel zoning, which sets it apart from a typical residential listing. According to BusinessTech, the property includes a five-suite manor house, four standalone luxury villas, a treehouse cottage, a spa and a swimming pool. It comes with the kind of hospitality infrastructure that makes it viable as a high-end accommodation business from day one.

That combination of residential luxury and commercial potential is what makes the estate unusual. A buyer could live there or run it as a boutique hotel. See a post about the listing below:
