The newly opened retail centre is anchored by the 4,453m2 flagship supermarket by Harris Farm Markets, the latest and greatest offering in the company’s network of 29 supermarkets.

“The asset provides investors with a secure income stream, benefiting from a Weighted Average Lease Expiry (WALE) of approximately ten years,” said Stuart Taylor, Senior Director of Retail Investments at JLL.

The centre comprises a Gross Lettable Area of 9,690m2 with 224 car parks on title, with a current net income of approximately $1,847,291 p.a.

“This asset will be well sought-after as it offers incoming purchasers guaranteed income growth through fixed annual rental review as well as significant depreciation benefits, given the major redevelopment completed in 2020,” said Taylor.

“An opportunity providing these types of fundamentals is typically only found with the likes of Bunnings or a freestanding supermarket investment,” said Nick Willis, Director of Retail Investments at JLL. “The Harris Farm brand is one that is synonymous with affluent inner Sydney suburbs. The fact that this location is where the brand has decided to open its largest and latest flagship store is a testament to the strength of the Albury-Wodonga catchment.”
