A high-profile former bank branch for lease is presenting an exciting opening for a major retail or office tenant to set up shop in Havelock North’s town centre.

The well-appointed single-storey property in a sought-after location fronting busy Napier Road was previously home to ASB Bank.

Its modern fit-out, excellent profile and exposure to heavy foot traffic in the town’s commercial centre will appeal widely to regional and national businesses seeking a strategic presence in the growing Hawke’s Bay.

The property at 7 Napier Road, Havelock North, is being marketed for lease by negotiation through Mark Evans of Bayleys Napier and Rollo Vavasour of Bayleys Havelock North.

Evans said the property for lease consisted of an approximately 280-square metre tenancy area on 385 square metres of land.

“With a high-end retail and office fit-out befitting its former use as a bank branch, these fully air-conditioned premises combine a front retail area with meeting rooms and an open-plan office at the rear.

“Excellent staffroom, kitchen and toilet facilities round out what is an attractive and comfortable site from which to do business.

“Occupiers can also take comfort from the building’s Initial Evaluation Procedure seismic rating of 100 percent of new building standard,” said Evans.

Vavasour said there was secondary access to the premises and five dedicated car parks to the rear of the building, along with street parking in front.

“Situated on a very busy section of Napier Road, in the heart of Havelock North village, this tenancy will provide a new occupier with exceptional profile to a key thoroughfare which carries plenty of foot and vehicle traffic,” said Vavasour.

The site forms part of the Havelock North Village Retail Zone. The appeal of this location for big-brand occupiers is evident in the calibre of near neighbours including a New World supermarket, BNZ, an Archant home improvement store showroom and Porters Boutique Hotel and Conference Centre.

"Havelock North represents an excellent local catchment, with great transport links also assuring easy access to and from Napier and Hastings.

“With its growing population and a regional economy driven by thriving horticulture and wine industries, Hawke’s Bay is increasingly a place where leading businesses want to be.

“The Napier Road premises offer a prime town centre presence any new retail or office occupier can bank on,” said Vavasour.
