288m² retail space to lease at Security Place Building, Salt River, ideal for a showroom, storefront, trade counter, office, warehousing or light manufacturing business. At R140/m², the gross monthly rental is R40,320. What makes this unit interesting is the Main Road exposure, customers can actually see your business, signage and shopfront, rather than having to find you inside a conventional office building.

We see the space working particularly well for furniture, flooring, electrical, leather goods, clothing, boutique retail, interior products and other showroom-style businesses. The surrounding Main Road area already has a strong mix of retail, trade and manufacturing activity, which gives the unit a natural commercial setting. For a business that depends on passing exposure and easy recognition, the signage potential is a big plus.

From the front, there is a welcoming entrance and shopfront with plenty of natural light. Behind the shopfront are two front roller shutter doors that can be opened up, giving the tenant more flexibility in how the frontage and access is used. This could suit a retailer handling larger products, a showroom receiving stock, or a business wanting a more open trade-counter setup.

The unit also has three-phase power, adding another layer of flexibility for businesses that need to run machinery or higher-demand equipment. There is also a concealed vehicle pit within the unit, which can be utilised if required. For the right tenant, particularly an automotive, technical, workshop or specialised manufacturing business, this is a useful feature that isn't commonly found in a customer-facing commercial unit.

Inside, the 288m² commercial space has a large open area that can be adapted around the tenant's operation. There is a reception area, boardroom, kitchenette and exclusive-use bathrooms, along with fibre connectivity. The layout means you aren't locked into just one type of use, which is useful for a company combining customer-facing retail with administration, storage, workshop activity or light manufacturing under one roof.

There is also a rear receiving area, an important feature when stock or equipment needs to come in without interfering with the main customer entrance. Together with the two front roller shutters, three-phase power and hidden vehicle pit, the property has a practical mix of features for a business that needs more than a standard retail shop.

Salt River is well known for its mix of commercial, retail, creative and light industrial businesses, and Main Road remains an arterial route through the area. This location give you the benefit of being surrounded by established businesses while maintaining strong exposure for your own brand. For businesses looking at retail space to rent in Salt River, showroom premises or flexible commercial space in Cape Town, the combination of visibility, power supply and receiving access is worth a closer look.

The gross rental is R140/m², calculated at R40,320 per month for the full 288m² unit. Parking is optional, but no confirmed parking rate was supplied, so we haven't included an estimated parking cost in the monthly rental.
