Sydney’s thriving Ed.Square Town Centre provides highly sought-after retail investment opportunity

Frasers Property Australia is bringing Ed.Square Town Centre to market, providing a sought-after opportunity to secure a major shopping, dining and entertainment destination in Sydney’s south-west growth corridor.

The circa $250 million retail precinct is directly adjacent to the Edmondson Park train and bus interchange. It serves as the central hub of Frasers Property Australia’s highly successful, $1.5 billion Ed.Square mixed-use master planned community, which covers more than 25 hectares and will incorporate 1,884 dwellings on completion.

“Ed.Square Town Centre not only services an established and thriving local community but, due to its highly connected location, is also a major food, dining and entertainment hub for the entire south-west Sydney region,” said Felicity Armstrong, General Manager Retail Investments, Frasers Property Australia.

“It has been incredibly rewarding to develop and grow this asset from its greenfield roots within a booming residential corridor to the busy centre it is today. Ed.Square has grown and evolved into a true community town centre which reflects a diverse customer and provides a complete offering for people to live, shop and play in the one destination.”

CBRE’s Simon Rooney and James Douglas have been appointed to steer the Expressions of Interest campaign, which closes May 7, 2026.

Mr Rooney noted, “Ed.Square is without question, one of the best convenience-based retail shopping centres to come to market in years. Since opening in 2021, the centre has traded strongly, underpinned by its strategic location, significant population and spending growth in Sydney’s south-west, and the development of major road and transport infrastructure.”

Mr Rooney added, “The Town Centre will continue to thrive as the region benefits from ongoing high rates of new residential development, as Sydney rapidly expands to accommodate significant levels of new housing demand.”

Opened in 2021, the near-new, architecturally designed asset has a GLA of 24,502 sqm and includes 89 specialty stores and 926 parking spaces.

Ed.Square Town Centre benefits from significant precinct critical mass and a captive immediate catchment of 427 apartments, which has driven high productivity and pedestrian traffic levels since opening.

CBRE’s Mr Douglas said, “Ed.Square has already become a major retailing and entertainment focal point for the community, anchored by an exceptional Coles Supermarket, a well-mixed and highly resilient food, service and non-discretionary tenancy mix, together with a thriving entertainment and F&B offer, with Events Cinemas as a major drawcard.”

The centre benefits from direct rail access to Sydney, Parramatta and Liverpool, is close to the new Western Sydney Airport, and services an expansive trade area of 208,850 residents as at 2024, which is forecast to grow by 2.6% per annum in the lead up to 2036.

This expansive total trade area is underpinned by substantial main trade area population of 72,160, forecast to grow by 4.6% p.a. to 2036 to reach 124,440 residents.

The centre is situated with Sydney’s South-West Growth Precinct and is strategically positioned to benefit from significant current and planned residential and infrastructure developments.
