The Tennants | Industrial Complex | Retreat, Cape Town
Property Overview
The Tennants is a well-established multi-unit industrial complex situated at 37 Honeywell Road in Retreat, one of Cape Town's most practical and well-connected light-industrial suburbs on the Southern Suburbs corridor. Comprising eleven sectional title units ranging in size from 91 m² to 162 m², this compact yet functional development is ideally suited to small and medium-sized businesses seeking ownership or occupancy in a sought-after Southern Suburbs location.
The complex offers a range of unit sizes to accommodate varying operational requirements, from owner-managed trade businesses and light manufacturing operations to storage, distribution, and service-oriented enterprises.

Investment Appeal
The Tennants presents a compelling proposition for both owner-occupiers and investors within Cape Town's enduring industrial property market. Sectional title industrial units in the Southern Suburbs are consistently in demand, underpinned by a limited supply of well-located small-to-medium industrial space in established nodes such as Retreat. The combination of accessible unit sizes, a strategic location on key arterial routes, and the long-term capital appreciation typically associated with Cape Town industrial property makes this complex a sound and considered acquisition.
The Southern Suburbs industrial corridor continues to attract stable, established businesses that value connectivity, community infrastructure, and proximity to both the CBD and the broader Cape Peninsula.
