Amber Place – Bloemhof
Location
Area: Amber Place is generally referenced as being in the Bloemhof area, near Tygervalley in Bellville (Cape Town).
Proximity Landmarks: It is typically close to major amenities in Tygervalley, such as Tygervalley Shopping Centre, Willowbridge Mall, and various business and office parks along Willie van Schoor Drive/Durban Road.
Number of Units and Their Sizes
Units/Sections:
Amber Place is commonly marketed as multi-tenanted office space. The exact count of units can vary depending on how the landlord chooses to partition the space.
Typical floor plates for A-grade office buildings in the area can range anywhere from 200 m² to full floors of 1,000 m² or more.
Usage Mix:
Primarily office use (the vast majority of the building).
There may be small retail or showroom components on the ground floor to serve as a café or lobby area, but it is predominantly offices.
If any specific portion is allocated to storage or similar uses, it’s likely minimal.
Some Other Tenants
Typical Tenant Profile: Many of the commercial buildings in Bloemhof/Tygervalley attract professional services, IT firms, financial services, medical suites, or satellite corporate offices.
Examples:
In similar blocks along Willie van Schoor, you’ll often find insurance brokers, accounting firms, small to mid-size tech companies, sometimes smaller medical or consulting practices.
Exact named tenants change regularly due to lease turnover; you would need the landlord or an updated listing to see who is in place at Amber Place specifically right now.
Entry Points and Hours of Operation
Entry Points:
Most office buildings in this node have a main reception/lobby entrance. If there’s a ground-floor retail or café component, it often has a separate frontage.
Depending on the site layout, there may be controlled vehicle gate access to secure parking (underground or behind a boom gate).
Hours:
Standard commercial hours for office tenants typically run Monday–Friday, 8 AM – 5 PM (or 6 PM).
Access for tenants may be 24/7 (e.g., via access cards or security sign-in), but visitors often must adhere to normal reception hours unless otherwise arranged.
Any retail component (if it exists) may have slightly extended hours on weekdays and partial weekend hours.

Bloemhof/Tygervalley business precinct is well-connected to the N1 highway, with Willie van Schoor Drive (Durban Road extension) being the main feeder to/from the N1.

Parking Options
On-site Parking:
