The demand for decentralized offices on the southern periphery of the Cape Town CBD continues to grow, says Tanya Jovanovksi, co-franchisee of the Rawson Auctions Western Cape franchise – and one result for this is that former residential properties are now increasingly being rezoned and adapted for business use.
One such, said Jovanovski, is soon to be auctioned. Sited in Roodebloem Road, these premises consist of three offices linked to an open-plan area, a kitchen and a bathroom with a shower and a toilet. The building has private front and back patios and is partially shaded by trees. It gives easy access to the N2 freeway and is less than five minutes’ drive from the centre of Cape Town. The premises will be vacant on transfer. The reserve price set for this property is R2 million and it has a GB1 (General Business) zoning.
The auction will take place on Wednesday 26th March at 12 noon and will be held in the Rawson Property Group’s head office at 222 Main Road, Rondebosch. Those interested in the property, said Jovanovski, can arrange a pre-auction viewing by telephoning Sean Ferris on 079 919 5930 or emailing Faeqah Corker at info@rawsonauctions.com.
Rawson Auctions do not charge a registration fee for bidders but their conditions stipulate that a 5% deposit on the sales price and 10% commission plus VAT be paid on the fall of the hammer. The Consumer Protection Act lays it down that bidders must have their ID documents and proof of residence with them.
