An exceptional opportunity to acquire a substantial multi-level industrial property in the well-established industrial node of Jacobs. Scheduled for auction on 21 July 2026 at Mount Edgecombe Country Club, this versatile industrial asset offers extensive warehouse accommodation, functional logistics infrastructure, and a strategic location within one of Durban's most recognised industrial precincts.
Locality
Situated on Brooklyn Road in Jacobs, the property enjoys excellent accessibility to Durban's major transport routes, harbour-related infrastructure, and key industrial and commercial hubs. Jacobs remains one of Durban's most sought-after industrial locations due to its proximity to the Port of Durban, major arterial roads, and established industrial occupiers, making it highly attractive to both owner-occupiers and investors.
Improvements
The property comprises an approximate gross lettable area of ±7,000m² arranged across multiple levels and designed to accommodate a variety of industrial operations. The main warehouse component is situated on the first floor and offers generous internal heights of approximately 6 metres to the eaves, providing excellent capacity for storage, manufacturing, or distribution purposes. The improvements include Warehouse 1 of approximately ±1,100m², Warehouse 2 of approximately ±4,000m², which can be combined with Warehouse 1 to create a significantly larger operational area, and a road-facing Warehouse 3 of approximately ±1,200m². The balance of the improvements comprises office accommodation together with additional operational space adjoining the office component. A goods hoist facilitates efficient movement of stock and materials between levels, while road-level access enhances operational convenience. The property further benefits from an approximate ±400m² yard area for loading, parking, and ancillary industrial activities.
Income Potential
The property's substantial warehouse accommodation, flexible layout, high-clearance storage capacity, and strategic industrial location provide significant potential for both owner-occupiers and investors. The ability to accommodate multiple tenants or a single large-scale industrial operation creates flexibility and the opportunity to maximise rental income and long-term capital growth.
Surrounding Environment
Jacobs is a mature and highly regarded industrial precinct characterised by a diverse range of manufacturing, warehousing, logistics, and distribution businesses. Its close proximity to the Port of Durban, major freeway networks, and surrounding industrial nodes continues to support strong demand for quality industrial accommodation. The area's established infrastructure and strategic location contribute to its enduring appeal within the Durban industrial market.
