Property Description
A neat, tidy and well-orientated corner industrial facility located at 1 Max Street, Knights, Germiston. The property offers approximately 700 m² of industrial space configured for warehousing, light manufacturing or assembly use, on a 734 m² corner stand.
The facility includes a reception area and ample open warehouse space suited to machinery or storage. A well-designed and proportioned mezzanine floor adds additional usable area and houses renovated bathrooms, breakaway offices and further assembly or manufacturing space. The 150 m² office component is complemented by a 6 m ceiling height in the warehouse, one roller-shutter door and one loading dock, with a gate attached to the facility serving as a loading bay onto Max Street.
The property is supported by 3-phase power and a backup water tank, and offers four open parking bays on-site. The unit is currently vacant, presenting an owner-occupier opportunity with several value-add angles: filling the vacancy with a tenant, installing solar / renewable energy for additional income, or exploring a change-of-use or conversion strategy.

Area Description
Knights is an established industrial suburb of Germiston, situated within the City of Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality on Johannesburg's East Rand. Germiston has long been one of South Africa's most important industrial and logistics nodes, anchored by its position alongside the Germiston rail yards – historically one of the busiest in Africa – and by its proximity to Transnet's City Deep inland container terminal and the broader Gauteng freight network.
The property's corner position on Max Street offers strong arterial exposure and easy access to the surrounding industrial precincts of Knightsgate, Driehoek, Industries East and the larger Wadeville industrial area to the south. The N3, N12 and N17 national routes, as well as the R21 to OR Tambo, are all within a short drive via the Geldenhuys Interchange and surrounding feeder roads, placing the facility well for distribution into Johannesburg, Pretoria, KwaZulu-Natal and the East Rand industrial belt.
Knights and the surrounding Germiston industrial areas accommodate a wide range of users including manufacturers, engineering and fabrication businesses, logistics and warehousing operators and trade suppliers. Everyday retail, banking and food services are available in the Germiston CBD, with larger regional retail at East Rand Mall in Boksburg.
