MOSMAN - $35 million
Colliers has sold a prime residential development site at 5–9 Bond Street, Mosman for approximately $35 million, marking the first settled transaction in the suburb under NSW’s new Low and Mid-Rise Housing Policy.
The 1,724sqm site, acquired by Star Capital, will deliver 27 apartments and establishes a clear pricing benchmark for policy-enabled sites on the Lower North Shore.
The highly competitive campaign attracted strong interest from major developers and institutional groups, reflecting growing confidence in the new planning framework. Under the revised controls, the site benefits from a 2.2:1 FSR and a 22-metre height limit, unlocking significant development potential.
Guillaume Volz said the result demonstrates that policy-enabled sites are trading and settling, while Marina Corvalan noted Mosman is entering a structural shift, with planning reform driving renewed development activity and long-term market confidence.
LEPPINGTON - $13.5 million
Colliers has sold a 30,050 sqm industrial-zoned landholding at 143 Dickson Road, Leppington for $13.5 million, reinforcing continued strength across South West Sydney’s logistics corridor. The site was offered on behalf of the NSW Government and attracted strong interest from institutional investors, owner-occupiers and developers seeking scale.
The campaign, managed by Colliers’ Trent Gallagher, Joe Sacco and Adrian Balderston, generated six registered bidders and 12 competitive bids, highlighting the depth of demand for well-located industrial land near major infrastructure.
Colliers noted the result reflects the premium placed on large, flexible industrial sites close to Western Sydney Airport and key arterials, with buyer demand continuing to outpace supply in the region.

HOPPERS CROSSING - $23.8 million
CVA has successfully sold the major commercial holding at 52–64 Old Geelong Road, Hoppers Crossing for $23.8 million, reflecting a net return of approximately 5.7%. The 1.2-hectare site, spanning five titles and acquired in one line, was purchased by a Melbourne-based family making its first investment in the western region.
Home to a nationally recognised tenant mix including Spotlight, VicRoads, Tabcorp, Peak Health and Noone Schoolwear, the asset attracted strong interest following a strategic Expressions of Interest campaign. CVA played a key role in aligning both landowners to deliver a combined sale, unlocking scale and maximising buyer appeal.
The campaign generated 90 enquiries and nine offers, highlighting strong demand for secure income and large landholdings in Melbourne’s western growth corridor.
DONCASTER EAST - $16.35 million
Colliers has successfully sold the freestanding Woolworths Doncaster East supermarket for $16.35 million, achieving the sharpest yield for a full-line supermarket transaction since 2022.
The campaign attracted exceptional competition, generating 22 formal offers and more than $260 million in unsatisfied capital, highlighting the scarcity of freestanding supermarket assets in Victoria.
Tim McIntosh and Will Heffernan of Colliers Retail Middle Markets said the result reflects intense investor demand for long-term net-leased, essential-service assets, with supermarkets increasingly viewed as cornerstone investments offering security, strong land fundamentals and long-term growth potential.
GOLDEN SQUARE - $6.5 million
A modern, fully leased childcare centre in Golden Square, Bendigo has sold for $6.5 million, marking one of the first early learning transactions of 2026.
Located at 100 Panton Street, the centre is secured by a 20-year lease to Discovery Bay Early Learning, a well-established regional operator, with the sale reflecting a yield of 5.95%. The transaction was managed by CBRE’s Australian Healthcare & Social Infrastructure team of Sandro Peluso, Marcello Caspani-Muto and Jimmy Tat.
Mr Peluso said the result set a strong tone for the year ahead, noting the centre’s standout design features, limited nearby competition and proximity to nine schools, while Mr Tat highlighted growing demand for regional childcare driven by affordability and changing work patterns.
