It was originally built in 2002. It has frontages to Bent Street and Bligh Street.

It was sold by Knight Frank agent Ben Stewart on behalf of Denison Funds Management, part of Metro Property Syndicate.
South Grafton neighbourhood shopping centre, anchored by a Bi-Lo Supermarket, has sold for $5.8 million, reflecting an initial passing yield of 10.68 per cent.
The sale of South Grafton Shopping Centre to a Sydney-based private investor was negotiated by Ben Stewart of Knight Frank, on behalf of Denison Funds Management, as responsible entity of Metro Property Syndicate.
The property, prominently located on Bent Street South Grafton, has a total lettable area of 3,297sq m. In addition to Bi-Lo Supermarket, the centre houses Guardian Pharmacy and six additional specialty shops with car parking for some 162 vehicles.
Stewart says the centre is a well-located secure retail investment opportunity.
“There continues to be strong interest from purchasers for convenience based retail investments such as this. The culmination of lower borrowing costs and somewhat limited supply of quality centres has resulted in competitive offers for some vendors” Stewart says.
It had been on the market since September last year.
According to Denison there were four interested parties. Settlement is on December 19.
Denison is currently involved in a stoush over the future of the 360 Capital Industrial Fund, with mooted plans to list the $345 million fund on the ASX.
