Leyton swoops on south Adelaide investment

The Melrose Park asset is trading on a 5.05 per cent yield.

Leyton Funds has snapped up another asset – this time at Melrose Park, in its hometown of Adelaide.

The two level office/warehouse at 32 Bennet Avenue, occupied by Seasonair and Sheppcom, is setting it back $5.3 million – a 5.05 per cent net passing yield.

On 3036 square metres, configured as three titled lots, the property has the flexibility to be sold down-longer term.

Alternatively, the 1663 square metre building could be extended.

Cushman & Wakefield’s Hamish Crouch and Jay Nash brokered the deal immediately following the May 1 close of an expressions of interest campaign.

1, 2 and 3, 32 Bennet Street

Seasonair is on the longest rental agreement at 32 Bennet St – expiring in 2030, then with options.

Sheppcomm is committed until 2027 but also has options.

The property has large areas for loading and parking.

All units have LED lighting, while 1 and 2 have solar.

The deal comes a week since we reported Leyton was buying Woolworths’ Queensland headquarters, for a single asset fund.
