100% fully leased Sans Souci Central brought to market following major retail transaction activity
A rare opportunity to acquire a fully leased neighbourhood shopping centre in metropolitan Sydney has come to market with Sans Souci Central offered for sale via Expressions of Interest by Colliers, in conjunction with Stonebridge Property Group.
Colliers’ James Wilson, Ben Wilkinson and Trent Gallagher are co‑managing the campaign alongside Alex James‑Elliott and Philip Gartland at Stonebridge.
The campaign represents the first Sydney metropolitan neighbourhood centre opportunity to be launched in 2026 highlighting renewed investor appetite for resilient, non-discretionary retail assets supported by long WALEs and predictable income growth.
Located at 524 Rocky Point Road, Sans Souci, the centre comprises a 100% leased convenience-based retail offering, anchored by the only full-line supermarket within the Main Trade Area, Supabarn Farmer’s Market and Liquor supported by a complementary mix of six specialty retail and medical tenants.
“Neighbourhood centres of this calibre are exceptionally hard to secure in metropolitan Sydney. Sans Souci Central delivers everything investors are prioritising, non‑discretionary income, a dominant supermarket anchor and strong fixed rental growth within a tightly held affluent coastal catchment. With 100% occupancy, a strong WALE and secure income growth from day one, assets like this rarely come to market in Sydney,” said James Wilson, Head of Retail Middle Markets | Australia at Colliers.
The property occupies a prominent 4,526 sqm island site with 112 metres of frontage to Rocky Point Road, one of southern Sydney’s key arterial routes, benefiting from exposure to approximately 34,800 passing vehicles per day and excellent access via multiple street frontages and a substantial basement car park.
The centre offers a WALE of 4.89 years by area supported by all specialty tenants subject to annual rental reviews ranging from 4% to CPI, providing investors with stable and predictable income growht. National and chain retailers account for 84% of total income, reinforcing the defensive nature of the asset.
“The successful sales of The Albany, Crows Nest and Mall 88 and demonstrated the depth of investor demand for well-located metropolitan neighbourhood centres. Sans Souci Central builds on that momentum, offering scale, income security and strong supermarket fundamentals in an undersupplied trade area,” added Alex James-Elliott, Director at Stonebridge Property Group.
Situated approximately 17 kilometres south of the Sydney CBD, Sans Souci Central services a tightly held coastal catchment characterised by strong population growth forecasts and a significant undersupply of supermarket floorspace relative to both metropolitan Sydney and national benchmarks.
Neighbourhood shopping centres were among the strongest performing retail asset classes nationally in 2025 with transaction volumes increasing sharply year-on-year and exceeding long-term averages. Investor demand continues to be driven by the sector’s defensive income profile, non-discretionary tenancy mix and limited supply within established metropolitan catchments, positioning high-quality neighbourhood centres to remain highly sought after through 2026.
Sans Souci Central is offered for sale via an Expressions of Interest campaign closing at 4.00pm (AEDT) on Thursday, 5 March 2026. Strong interest is anticipated from domestic and offshore investors seeking secure, income-producing retail assets within established Sydney metropolitan locations.
