Rare chance to snap up a slice of Canberra’s beloved local shops
“It’s a fact of life that these types of opportunities in local shopping centres don’t come along very often – particularly one like this with three tenancies."

Rare Canberra local shops offering comes to market in Lyons

Canberra’s local shops are gems that are much loved, particularly by nearby residents.

They’re the most convenient places to pop in for a “can’t be bothered cooking” takeaway, a last-minute dinner ingredient or a weekend coffee. And just about every suburb has one.

Lyons, right next door to the Woden Town Centre, is no exception. In fact, it can save you the hassle of finding a car park at the larger shopping centre at the end of a long day.

Now, a substantial commercial opportunity has come onto the market in the Lyons shops.

Set on 668 square metres in a corner position, this single-level property offers 391 square metres of net lettable area across three tenancies ranging from 95 square metres to 172 square metres.

The property also has a generous private rear courtyard, providing additional parking and storage. Local zoning allows for a range of retail, medical and office uses.

Ollie White of Colliers Canberra says the property is offered with vacant possession.

“It’s a fact of life that these types of opportunities in local shopping centres don’t come along very often – particularly one like this with three tenancies,” he says.

“There is also the ability to add further value through renovation or longer-term redevelopment, subject to the usual approvals.”

White says owner-occupiers are showing strong interest.
