The weighted average lease term across the various tenancies is 4.6 years and the property provides $790,836 plus GST in passing rental income per annum. The existing lease agreements also include CPI or market reviews that are due for renewal on 1 January 2024.

Colliers Directors David Burley, Kris Ongley, and Shoneet Chand have been exclusively appointed to market the property for sale via deadline private treaty closing at 4pm on Wednesday 21 June, unless sold prior.

496-504 Mount Eden Road spans 2,952sq m and offers 877sq m of total lettable area with Mobil fronting Mount Eden Road. The three basement workshop units are occupied by Midas, Salute Construction, and Eden Tyres. There are a total of 44 on-site car parks.

The workshop units have premium fit-outs that include ducted air, toilets, showers, and lunchroom facilities and can be accessed via a circular driveway that wraps around the property.

510 Mount Eden Road (the adjoining property) has 406sq m of lettable area on a 554sq m site with popular restaurant Indian Lounge occupying the road frontage. The restaurant adds a dynamic edge to the property and sits above two two-bedroom lower-level luxury residential units that were renovated in 2018 and offer quality and modern living spaces.

Managed and meticulously maintained for the past 38 years by the same owners, this property offers buyers the chance to secure a stake in Mount Eden with one of the largest commercial sites in the suburb.

Burley, Auckland Director of Investment Sales at Colliers, says the potential of this property lies in its significant future development possibilities underpinned by favourable Mixed Use zoning.

“The zoning permits a wide range of commercial and residential activities. This zone is intended to provide a balance between business and residential uses, with an emphasis on creating vibrant and diverse communities that are attractive to both residents and visitors,” Burley says.

“The split-risk tenancy mix also provides a strong rental stream meaning the new owners will be able to strategically plan their future moves for the property. The rental income is projected to grow to approximately $892,784 plus GST per annum from 1 January. ”
