Die Hoewes, Centurion: 2025 Outlook for Investors & Tenants
If your firm is considering expansion, leasing, or investment in Centurion, Die Hoewes offers a mature yet dynamic precinct with compelling upside in density, connectivity, and repositioning potential. Below is a contemporary area profile, spotlighting what matters for commercial real estate decisions in 2025.
1. Geographic Setting & Demographic Snapshot
Die Hoewes lies directly northeast of Centurion Central, bounded by suburbs such as Doringkloof, Lyttelton Manor, Clubview and Zwartkop. It enjoys adjacency to major landmarks including Netcare Unitas Hospital, Centurion Lake Mall, and SuperSport Park.
From Census 2011, Die Hoewes spanned 5.80 km², with 18,424 residents and 8,092 households, giving a density of ~3,175 persons per km². The area is characterised by high-density residential development – mostly sectional title units (apartments, townhouses, complexes) – with a smaller component of freehold houses.
In 2025, the suburb continues to attract young professionals, investors, and commuters due to its walkability to the Gautrain, proximity to retail and healthcare services, and quick regional connectivity.
2. Market Dynamics & Current Listings
Residential Listings & Price Ranges
On Property24 in mid-2025, Die Hoewes had about 700 active property listings, dominated by 2-bedroom and 3-bedroom units. Asking prices for sectional title apartments generally range from ~R710,000 to R1,795,000, while townhouse and cluster homes fall in the R980,000 – R1.8 million range. Rentals vary widely, from around R7,800 for 2-bedroom apartments to R19,500 for larger family homes.
Commercial & Mixed-Use Listings
Die Hoewes is also a well-established commercial node. Galetti currently markets several premium listings in the area, including:
- 149 m² Office in The Lords Office Estate, Die Hoewes – For Sale
- 600 m² A-Grade Office Building at 265 Von Willich Avenue – For Sale
- 282 m² Office Space at Lakeside 3, 263A West Avenue – For Lease
As density increases and demand grows for smaller, flexible workspaces, mixed-use developments and professional office units are becoming increasingly attractive.
3. Infrastructure, Connectivity & Amenity Strengths
Transport & Access
Die Hoewes benefits from excellent connectivity. Major roadways such as the M25 and M34 intersect the area, linking it directly to the N1 and N14 highways and reducing travel times to Johannesburg and Pretoria. The Centurion Gautrain Station, located within walking distance of much of the suburb, makes it one of the most commuter-friendly nodes in Gauteng.
The precinct’s walkability and proximity to key infrastructure significantly enhance its attractiveness for businesses seeking accessibility and workforce convenience.
Retail, Services & Social Infrastructure
The area is well supported by retail and service infrastructure. Centurion Mall, one of Gauteng’s largest shopping centres, is located nearby, along with local convenience centres and strip malls. Education is well-catered for, with schools such as Hoërskool Centurion, Lyttelton Manor High, Hoërskool Zwartkop, Southdowns College, and Lyttelton Primary all within close proximity.
Healthcare services, including Netcare Unitas Hospital and multiple medical suites, are easily accessible, while public amenities such as parks, clinics, and municipal services are integrated into the broader precinct.
4. Strengths, Risks & Strategic Moves for 2025
Key Strengths
- Existing density & catchment base: A built-in residential population provides reliable demand for retail, offices, and services.
- Excellent connectivity: Proximity to highways and the Gautrain makes commuting straightforward and efficient.
- Affordability vs. flagship precincts: Lower leasing and acquisition thresholds attract SMEs, first-time investors, and growing firms.
- Established infrastructure: Mature roads, utilities, and services lower development risk and improve investment confidence.
Risks / Constraints
- Limited large floor-plates: The prevalence of sectional title stock limits large contiguous commercial spaces.
- Older stock may require upgrades: Many properties need refurbishment or energy-efficiency improvements to remain competitive.
- Traffic and parking: Increasing density puts pressure on infrastructure and parking availability.
- Municipal reliability: Power supply and service delivery challenges remain a broader South African risk.
Strategic Opportunities
- Infill and conversions: Redevelopment of underutilised plots and outdated buildings into mixed-use or premium office assets.
- Resilient-product premium: Buildings with solar, battery storage or backup systems can command higher rents and longer leases.
- SME-focused workspaces: Flexible, smaller-format offices and co-working hubs cater to a rising segment of tenants.
- Retail convenience nodes: Ground-floor retail or service offerings in office or residential developments can boost value.
- Repositioning older stock: Modernising security, finishes, and amenities can unlock significant yield growth.
