Created within an original wine vat, this 450m² office is full of character and history. The original curved wine-vat walls have been preserved, including the small wine spouts once used to open and pour wine for testing, creating a truly distinctive setting for your business.
The office is spacious and exceptionally well partitioned, with numerous private offices, a large open-plan area that can be used as a collaborative workspace or social area, and two dedicated phone-booth sections. There is also a unique kitchenette, along with a hidden safe room tucked inside a cupboard, which could easily serve as a server room, secure storage or additional workspace.
One of the real highlights is the generous private braai area, offering a wonderful space for staff gatherings, informal meetings and entertaining. With summer approaching and the Rugby World Cup next year, it adds a great social element to an already unique office environment.

Simondium Guild holds a special kind of charm. This hidden gem is tucked between Paarl and Franschhoek, surrounded by nature and steeped in Winelands history. Originally established as the Drakenstein Co-operative Winery in 1906, the property has retained elements of its historic Cape Dutch architecture and original wine-cellar structures, now thoughtfully brought into a new chapter as a collection of local craft businesses and commercial spaces.
There is a wonderful sense of peace, privacy and character throughout the Guild, while still being conveniently connected to the surrounding Winelands. Situated along the R45 between Paarl and Franschhoek, the property provides straightforward access to Paarl, Franschhoek and Stellenbosch, with the N1 Highway also easily accessible for travel further afield. Paarl provides nearby retail, professional and medical services, including Mediclinic Paarl, which has a 24-hour emergency centre. Set between nature and nestled in history, this is a commercial space with character.
