The property offers separate access for the retail tenancy, workshop, and apartment, as well as four covered, private car parks with further off-street parking available.

Colliers Brokers Logan Roach and Gareth Fraser have been exclusively appointed to market the property for sale via auction to be held at Colliers, HSBC Tower, Level 23, 188 Quay Street, Auckland and online via Auctions Live at 11am on Wednesday 15 June, unless sold prior.

Originally constructed in the 1960s, the property forms part of a suburban retail strip situated on the bustling street of West Tamaki Road in the central Auckland Suburb of Glendowie.

Wai-O-Taiki Real Estate’s two-year tenancy agreement runs until May 2023 with two further rights of renewal for two years each, leading to a final expiry in May 2027 with market rent reviews scheduled for 2023 and 2025.

Roach, Investment Sales Broker at Colliers, says the property is well-positioned in a popular location.

“The property has been refurbished to an incredibly high standard and the works included alterations to the kitchen, toilets, external decking, roof, carpet, laundry, and offices, while the building was also reclad. The final Code Compliance Certificate was issued in July 2021,” Roach says.

“A passive investor will have the opportunity to boost their rental income through multiple streams by leasing the apartment and the ground floor workshop, while the existing tenancy will produce future rental growth from an established occupant.

“Alternatively, the buyer may wish to occupy the apartment for their own accommodation, while enjoying the passive income on offer from the open plan retail space and workshop downstairs.”

Fraser, Auckland Director of Investment Sales at Colliers, says the surrounding area provides a number of sought-after amenities.

“The suburb of Glendowie has seen a significant increase in residential values during the past few years with a number of properties in the wider area being redeveloped to provide higher-density housing,” Fraser says.

“West Tamaki Road connects the surrounding suburbs of Glen Innes, Wai O Taiki Bay, Glendowie, and Saint Heliers, while nearby schools include Sacred Heart College, Glendowie School, and Glendowie College.

“Neighbouring suburb Glen Innes provides excellent access to public transport through the train and bus links, alongside a range of popular retail offerings.

“With the potential to secure a prominent site in an affluent suburb and growing surrounding residential catchment, this property shapes as an enticing proposition for a wide array of prospective purchasers and we encourage all interested parties to do their due diligence and contact us immediately.”
