Privately owned developer HB+B Property has secured a major brownfield development opportunity at Dingley in Melbourne’s south-east for $19.75m.
CBRE’s David Aiello, Stephen Adgemis and Lachlan Ferguson negotiated the sale of the 39,760sqm, 1-5 Lakeside Drive landholding on behalf of ESR Australia.
“The sale is yet another example of how highly sought after large industrial landholdings are in Melbourne’s south-east,” Mr Aiello said.
“Given the lack of greenfield opportunities, developers are actively targeting strategic brownfield sites when they are made available. In this case, the property benefits from its location immediately opposite Moorabbin Airport and Chifley Business Park, as well as the inclusion of three existing building, which have been acquired for fraction of their replacement value.”
Mr Aiello added; “The surrounding Baysdie precinct has become increasingly popular since Dingley Bypass opened and stands to benefit further once the Mordialloc Bypass is completed in 2021/22.”
The sale to HB+B followed a recent Expressions of Interest campaign. The Industrial 1 zoned, freehold site comprises three warehouses with a total lettable area of
circa 17,431sqm.
CBRE’s Mr Adgemis said the property benefited from a corner position, multiple street frontages and proximity to an affluent residential catchment. Substantial power supply was also available on site.
“There are opportunities to strata, refurbish and/or reposition the improvements for higher and better use, subject to the relevant planning approvals,” Mr Adegemis said.
“The site’s versatility and flexible development options suits a wide range of users and redevelopment concepts, which underpinned strong interest in the sale campaign as did the area’s emergence as a last mile delivery precinct.”
