Big, muscular spaces are always sought after in Fyshwick, which still retains the ACT title as the premier industrial location.
And why not? It seems to have been around since the year dot, is a proven performer and the place to get that widget you can’t get anywhere else.
Of course, it’s much more than that, and it’s absolutely the perfect location for anything that might constitute “bulky goods” – really big, grunty stuff where a forklift comes in handy.
And that’s exactly what’s on offer at 52 Barrier Street. It’s vacant, ticks all the boxes and is ready for business.
Let’s look at the numbers: you get a 750-square-metre, standalone building on nearly 1500 square metres with a 30-metre street frontage. There are plenty of windows – with security roller shutters – a motorised roller door and a gated rear yard for additional parking or storage.
Internally, the building offers a retail showroom and a warehouse with an office.
Mark Nicholls of Raine & Horne Commercial says the space will likely hit the sweet spot with many potential owner-occupiers.
“It presents as a pretty good option in terms of location, size and price,” he says.
“And the zoning also covers retail, something that widen the possibilities for buyers.”
The address is close to Harvey Norman, Bunnings and the Canberra Outlet Centre.
The property is currently on the market for $2.5 million plus GST.
