Nine Entertainment Company today announced it has agreed to sell its Willoughby headquarters for $147.5 million.

Hong Kong-based property investor Euro Properties has purchased the site under a lease for a further three years after the sale is complete in 2017.

The sale is still subject to FIRB approval. The NSW Land and Environment Court has allowed a maximum number of apartments to 400 units, housed in five planned buildings which will be limited to a maximum height of eight storeys.

Nine Entertainment's Simon Kelly said the sale would allow the company to re-locate to new state of the art facilities.

The Willoughby site was the first in Australia to begin regular TV transmissions on September 16, 1956.

Nine noted the Willougby studio is the last original TV station in Sydney, with the ABC leaving Gore Hill in 2003 and Seven exiting Epping in 2009.
