Melbourne hospitality group acquires prime Ringwood asset

HTL Property, in conjunction with Ray White Commercial (RWC), is pleased to announce the successful sale of the landmark freehold property located at 123-127 Maroondah Highway, Ringwood. The prominent asset has been purchased by a highly regarded, Melbourne-based hospitality Group; and who are expected to leverage the building’s versatile footprint for an exciting new venture.

The purpose-built, three-level architectural building features a substantial Gross Leasable Area (GLA) of 1,525 sqm; and is situated on a prime 633 sqm land parcel with a commanding frontage along Maroondah Highway. Boasting indoor and outdoor entertainment zones, an integrated lift, a spacious beer garden and flexible Activity Centre Zoning (ACZ), the property represents one of the most versatile commercial opportunities in Melbourne’s eastern corridor.

The sale was spearheaded via a competitive Expression of Interest campaign led by HTL Property’s Scott Callow and Daniel Ryan, alongside Ray White Commercial’s Managing Director (VIC), Ted Dwyer.

Commenting on the transaction, HTL Property Director (VIC) Scott Callow noted the exceptional strength of the Ringwood precinct as a major metropolitan activity hub:

“The significant property attracted intense interest from a diverse range of buyers, underscoring the enduring value of well-designed hospitality and entertainment infrastructure. Ringwood serves as a vital gateway between inner Melbourne and the Yarra Valley, receiving millions of passing vehicles and visitors annually”

Ray White Commercial Managing Director (VIC) Ted Dwyer highlighted the asset’s strategic location directly opposite major demand drivers:

“Positioned within arm’s reach of the Eastland Shopping Centre precinct, and boasting rear access to substantial off-street parking, this building was perfectly primed for a hospitality operator. The ongoing multi-billion-dollar infrastructure injections into Ringwood, including the nearby Maroondah Hospital upgrade and transport interchange renewals, provide considerable confidence regarding the area’s long-term demographic tailwinds”

The successful hospitality operator is poised to inject fresh energy into the Ringwood food & dinning precinct.

HTL Property Investment Sales executive Daniel Ryan added:

“Assets of this calibre, offering modern construction and immediate scalability in a designated Metropolitan Activity Centre, are few and far between. We are delighted to have secured an exceptional outcome for our vendors and look favourably forward to seeing what is delivered upon this prominent site.”
