2 East Street, Ashburton, Canterbury

CBRE exclusively presents Woolworths Ashburton South – an unmatched supermarket investment.

The asset comprises 3,857 sqm of lettable area on a large 1.37ha corner site which has wide frontage to State Highway 1. A signalised intersection provides access to South Street which provides easy and all-turn access into the well laid out car park. The car park provides 207 A-grade spaces and integrates seamlessly with the recently completed adjoining Kmart anchored retail development, providing seamless cross-shop opportunities for patrons.

A new 10-year lease is in place, giving long-term security with strong covenant. The recent construction date (2017) and expansion (2023) provides additional investment comfort, and refurbishment works are underway helping to future proof the asset. The supermarket is the largest servicing the Ashburton District.

Ashburton is strategically located in the mid-Canterbury region of New Zealand’s South Island, approximately 80 km southwest of Christchurch and 110 km northeast of Timaru. This positioning makes Ashburton a key service hub for the expansive Canterbury Plains, particularly for the agricultural sector.
