- Colin Taylor

Abig industrial property in Wiri, with a Heavy Industrial zoning permitting a wide range of industrial occupiers, and a low building footprint allowing for significan­t expansion or redevelopm­ent, is now on the market.

“This property is ideal for owneroccup­iers seeking future expansion capability or a larger yard area,” says Bill Carlson of Barfoot & Thompson Commercial who is jointly marketing 67 Dalgety Drive with Claus Brewer and Paul Steele of CBRE. They are selling the property by deadline private treaty, closing at 4pm on Thursday March 16.

“This industrial property, which will become available with vacant possession on April 1, will also appeal to developers and add-value investors,” Carlson says.

Brewer says the 10,699sq m of freehold land is essentiall­y level with a 75m frontage on to Dalgety Drive. “It is a drive-around site that is fully fenced, with two street entrances,” he says. “The rear excess yard area is about 3200sq m.”

The total building footprint of 3238sq m with an additional 460sq m of mezzanine area, encompasse­s a 2935sq m warehouse equipped with fire sprinklers. The warehouse has one central row of columns and 5.1m eaves rising to 5.7m at the apex; along with 303sq m of ground level offices.

Brewer says the building was constructe­d in 1987. RLA Polymers have leased the property for the past 18 years.

“It has good access to the junction of the State Highway 1 motorway and the interchang­e on SH20 which immediatel­y flows on to SH1 north and south. The Cavendish Drive interchang­e on SH20 is around 3.2km away and provides a convenient alternate access toward the city. Auckland Airport is only 10km away.”

“For an occupier with a large yard requiremen­t, it’s suitable for immediate occupation with few comparable options available in the wider Auckland market.

“However, though the property is highly functional in its current form, a reposition­ing and refurbishm­ent exercise would extract its maximum value.”

Steel says Wiri is a fast-growing industrial suburb and the Heavy Industrial zoning is under the nowoperati­ng Unitary Plan.
