Looks very much like the common indoor Weeping Fig (Ficus benjamina) let loose in the ground.

Yes, I agree with the ID . my son has a not as large as this one at his house in SA. ..now I realise the connection when he was saying that the bathroom outlet pipes were getting blocked all the time. Hope he got onto the tablets for killing the tree roots that I thought were in there. now I see which tree is probably the culprit. they are great in pots but that's where they should stay.
