Ashfield Mall and adjacent properties

retail

• Liverpool Road, Ashfield NSW

Ashfield Mall is a sub-regional shopping centre located 10 kilometres south-east of the Sydney CBD, close to the railway station and bus interchange. The fully enclosed four level building has four anchor tenants and over 80 specialty shops with 650 undercover car spaces and more than 400 rooftop spaces.

Over the past two years, Abacus has undertaken a major refurbishment of the Mall and signed 20 year leases with Woolworths and Coles, resulting in a 7.8% increase in MAT in the 12 months to the end of December and a greater level of enquiry from national specialty retailers. The Mall is currently being repositioned to accommodate that enquiry with progressive refurbishment of shopfronts as new leases are signed.

Four adjacent retail properties are also owned by Abacus and provide scope for expansion of the Mall, greater exposure to Liverpool Road and additional parking. A development application seeking additional NLA of 2,700 m2, 150 residential and serviced apartments, 335 parking spaces and a childcare facility is currently with planning authorities.

The property comprises a 31 level office tower and two small office buildings. 81 King William Street is a three level building 100% leased to Fitness First.
