Charter Hall has quietly sold an ex-Suez waste plant after nearly 10 years.

The 1.9 hectare holding, 64-84 Waterview Close, Dandenong South, collected $18.6 million.

The buyer is Fulton Hogan Industries which plans to occupy.

The infrastructure giant operates out of two other properties in the suburb, 40 kilometres south-east of Melbourne’s CBD.

Charter Hall acquired the property from Suez Australia, then trading under the Sita brand, for $7.7m in December, 2016.

The on sale comes 10 months since realestatesource.com.au reported Centennial sold a vacant Waterview Close, Dandenong South, office/warehouse to a China-based investor for $20.88m.

That asset manager bought that property in 2022 with a short leaseback to flower supplier Apack for $19.88m (continues below).
