17 May 2021

Charter Hall Long WALE REIT is pleased to announce that a lease has been signed with NSW Government for 8,600sqm NLA of office accommodation at The Glasshouse, 45-61 Waterloo Road, Macquarie Park, Sydney.

At the time of acquisition in November 2019, the property was under construction with 70% (by net income) pre-committed to NSW Government on a 12-year lease. This new lease over levels 7 and 8 of the building will be co-terminus with the existing NSW Government lease.

The property reached practical completion in March 2020.

The deal announced today results in 100% of the office component of the building now being leased to NSW Government for a remaining lease term of 10.8 years.

CLW Fund Manager, Avi Anger said, “This lease agreement significantly improves the income security and lease expiry profile of The Glasshouse, which now has a WALE in excess of 10 years. The building is projected to achieve a 5 star NABERS rating and 5 Star Green Star Design and As Built ratings. This lease transaction also increases the proportion of income from government tenants in the CLW portfolio to 16% (by net income).”
