Proper Living aims to provide suitable accommodation to students and young professionals from R7,500 a month. Another prerequisite before moving in is a good sense of humour or simply saying hi to your neighbours on the lift.
Each apartment in a Proper Living accommodation building comes fully furnished and equipped with all the necessary amenities. This includes a double bed, wardrobe with shelves, space for a large desk, working chair, couch and a headboard.
Residents also enjoy access to laundry facilities, a fridge/freezer, induction stove, microwave, toaster and kettle. They also enjoy unlimited Wifi and a smart TV to stay entertained.
Individuals interested in living alone can enjoy their privacy while those wanting to experience a more social environment can live in an apartment with up to four rooms.
Rooms can be viewed on the Proper Living website.
Security guards are stationed at locations twenty-four hours a day seven days a week to ensure residents are safe. They also boast state-of-the-art surveillance equipment and advanced access control and partner with rapid response security companies.
With locations in Observatory, Woodstock and Rondebosch residents can enjoy centrally located accommodation with easy access to public transport systems and several other amenities.
