Award-winning commercial asset offering long-dated income security within South Sydney’s

Sydney, Australia – A fully-leased South Sydney freehold anchored by a government-backed biotechnology company and a premium childcare operator is being brought to market, offering investors rare long-dated income security within one of Sydney’s most significant urban transformation precincts.

With an 11.33-year WALE, fixed annual rental increases, and two tenants with strong structural demand drivers, the asset delivers income quality approaching that of an annuity, combined with compelling capital growth potential driven by substantial public and private investment in the surrounding precinct.

Located at 20-22 William Street, Beaconsfield, the asset comprises a three-level award-winning commercial building with 2,167sqm of NLA, set on a 1,233sqm corner site with three street frontages.

Completed in 2019 and designed by SJB Architects, the building's distinctive green façade was recognised as the 2021 Dulux Colour Awards Grand Prix Australia winner, with its modern construction ensuring minimal ongoing capital expenditure requirements.
A 100% freehold interest is being offered for sale via Expressions of Interest through Knight Frank agents Tim Holstbaum, James Aroney and Andrew Harford on behalf of the vendor, Peak Equities.

The asset is being offered with price expectations above $30 million, reflecting the quality and longevity of the income profile.
The asset is 100% leased, generating net passing income of $1.68 million per annum with fixed annual rental increases. Inventia Life Science, a venture capital and NSW Government backed biotechnology company, operates its primary global laboratory from the property, with a highly specialised fitout and high relocation costs underpinning strong tenant retention. The Green Elephant Early Learning holds a lease expiring in August 2044, its business further supported by growing residential densification across the Beaconsfield, Green Square and Alexandria catchment.

Knight Frank's Tim Holtsbaum said investor appetite for alternative assets such as life sciences and childcare had never been stronger.
"Capital is increasingly drawn to alternative asset classes with structural demand drivers, and both life sciences and childcare sit firmly in that category," he said.

"The forecast growth of these sectors is compelling, and 20–22 William Street is well positioned to feed off that appetite, offering exposure to both under one roof, with long term leases and income that investors can genuinely rely on."

James Aroney said the property's position within the Green Square Urban Renewal Corridor was a material long-term capital growth driver.

"Green Square is one of Australia's largest urban regeneration precincts, forecast to ultimately accommodate 63,000 residents and 22,000 permanent jobs, underpinned by over $23 billion in combined public and private investment," he said.

"That scale of transformation directly underpins long-term occupier demand and capital growth for assets within the corridor."
Andrew Harford said the campaign was expected to attract strong interest from investors seeking defensive, long-duration income in a tightly held city-fringe location.

"The combination of a specialised life sciences tenant with strong retention characteristics, a childcare operator on a lease to 2044, and a precinct undergoing one of the most significant transformations of any city-fringe location in Australia makes this one of the more compelling opportunities we have seen in South Sydney in some time," he said.

The Expressions of Interest campaign closes at 3:00pm (AEST) on Tuesday, 23 June 2026.
