This Mixed-Use property is calling on all creatives, visionaries and urban pioneers.
We are excited to introduce this rare industrial-heritage blend, a beautiful studio-warehouse conversion with room to grow.
Currently run as a trendy boxing gym with plenty of on-street parking as well as an option to rent two additional secure bays with direct access, this versatile studio space is situated in a prime location within the ever-evolving East City Precinct, where old-world charm meets urban edge and opportunity awaits at every turn. Cradled in the arms of the City Bowl beneath the iconic Table Mountain, this double-volume, industrial-style loft fuses historical architecture with modern utility.
Enter through a secure gate and original heritage façade into a light-filled, open-plan interior that was once home to a photographic studio. Situated on a tree-lined street, across a convenient parking area. An added bonus: there are currently two off-street parking bays available to rent with direct access.
The property is zoned Mixed-Use 2, providing opportunity for expansion, as a business or residential property. The ground floor includes three storage rooms, with the potential to create a fourth in the roof. The open-plan gym area is bathed in natural light and showcases a raw, industrial aesthetic. There are three bathrooms with showers, a kitchen with access to a back courtyard, which also leads up to a separate room currently used as a second bedroom.
Upstairs, the loft area is currently being utilized as the main bedroom, or ideal as a second office or creative workspace. This level opens onto a rooftop terrace with breathtaking panoramic views of Lion’s Head, Table Mountain, and the city skyline — a perfect spot for inspiration, relaxation, or entertaining.
The East City Precinct is Cape Town’s rising creative quarter, home to trendsetters, entrepreneurs, and urban pioneers. Surrounded by iconic spots such as Truth Coffee, Just Like Papa, Swan Café, Nude Foods, Shala Yoga, and The Book Lounge, this is a neighbourhood defined by start-up energy, collaborative workspaces and a thriving sense of community.
With the City Improvement District (CID) now in place, the area is on the brink of exciting transformation, boosting property values, business confidence, and deepening collaboration between city services and local creatives. Adding to this momentum, the council is actively gentrifying the neighbourhood, with many former council homes coming up for public auction — creating exciting development opportunities and further reinforcing the long-term value of investing here.
Whether you dream of launching an art gallery, boutique agency, co-working hub, a gym or creating a truly unique city residence, this space is your blank canvas.
