Rare office opportunity at Die Anker in Centurion
03 November 2011
Entire building or separate floors at threshold of commercial landmark
An ideal opportunity for a major corporation or state institution to occupy the entire space in one the most architecturally striking office buildings at the epicentre of the vibrant commercial life that revolves around Centurion Mall has arisen with the vacancy of Die Anker, an 11 833m2 office block adjacent to the retail hub and metres from the Gautrain station.
Die Anker is appropriately named as one of the most significant buildings orbiting Centurion Mall, the 105 000m2 super regional shopping centre that holds its strategic landmark position between the metropoles of Johannesburg and Pretoria.
‘As an architecturally important structure, the building has all the prestige needed for corporate headquarters, either in its entirety, or on one or more of the five floors,’ says Natasha van der Merwe, Finance and Administration Manager of Centurion Mall. ‘Each floor has its own private ablutions and a dedicated boardroom, so the building can be occupied by several divisions of one major corporation, or separate entities, which would each have their own private accommodation.’
The building has the advantage of sharing the same arrival point as the Mall, but at the same time retains its own security and privacy.
Architecturally it is spectacular, with a soaring glass screen on the lakeside elevation. The spacious atrium creates a central focus to the building and the attractive external facades are clad in rich clay masonry, with idiosyncratic fenestration.
One of Die Anker’s unique selling points is its huge number of parking bays – offering secure covered space to over 1 000 cars. It also has an unusually large secure storage are of 605m2.
For commuting staff, it is only 800 metres from Centurion’s new Gautrain Station and offers immediate access to retail stores, banking, car dealerships, two luxury hotels, and all main roads including the N1.
