Gosford ATO office listed, under offer
The Gosford ATO office building, which is still under construction, is under offer, through the real estate agency Colliers International.
The 99 Georgiana Terrace and 38 Mann Street holding, comprises a 7,150 sqm office building to be completed in late 2017 and a two-storey heritage building which will be renovated for retail, café or boutique office use.
The Commonwealth Government has committed to a 10-year lease in 99 Georgiana Terrace, with two further options of five-years, representing 97 percent of the asset’s total income.
The properties were marketed through an expressions of interest campaign that closed on October 5.
“Offered by one of Canberra’s largest investment and development companies, Doma Group, this property is an incredible opportunity in the Central Coast’s commercial hub,” said Paul Powderly of Colliers International, who along with his colleagues Tim Mutton, Adam Leacy and James Barber were tasked with the marketing campaign.
The total net lettable area is 7,380 sqm.
The office building, close to Gosford CBD, delivers a secure income stream due to its high-profile tenancy in the Commonwealth Government and a fixed 3.5% review mechanism over the term of the lease.
The population of the NSW Central Coast is expected to grow by 70,000 to around 409,000 over the next two decades, which will require over 30,000 new jobs to be created over the next 16 years.
“Gosford is perfectly primed to benefit from its proximity to Sydney, growing population and beautiful surrounds,” said Adam Leacy.
“The property is bounded by Georgiana Terrace and Mann Street, only minutes from the CBD and adjacent to Gosford City Park, meaning it is the ideal location for office space in this booming part of the New South Wales economy."
The Doma Group has been a significant participant in the property industry across the residential, commercial, retail and hospitality sectors for over 40 years – and recently secured the rights to develop the new 13,000 sqm ACT Government office in Dickson with a 20 year pre-commitment.
