Settler Houses

In parts of Central you can still find some of the first homes to be built in Port Elizabeth. These old Settler houses have become quite a popular investment lately and a lot of people are renovating them to their former glory. The area was starting to be one of the most run down parts of the city and it is good to see that some people are having pride in the city’s and their heritage and doing something about it.

    That looks like Upper Hill Street!?! There are some really nice houses there. I wouldn't mind owning or living in one!!

    That's why it's so important to make sure that we take care of our heritage buildings.

    A bit like the houses in Woodstock and round about District Six. Picturesque! Difficult to retain the community character though when they go upmarket.
