Yamanto freestanding retail investments for sale – CBRE

Quanta Investment Funds has brought two high-profile freestanding investments to market in Yamanto, Brisbane, offering investors the opportunity to acquire one or both assets underpinned by blue-chip national tenants.

CBRE’s Queensland Private Wealth team, led by Tom Lawrence, Matt Smith and Neville Smith is managing the campaign.

Mr Matt Smith told COMMO the portfolio represented an appealing proposition for private investors seeking secure, passive income in one of the country’s most compelling growth markets. “Ipswich is forecast to be the fastest-growing LGA in Queensland, with population projections of 164% through to 2046. These assets are right in the heart of that story, and the lease structures mean investors can essentially set and forget.”

The Ampol asset occupies a landmark 3,687sqm site with 95 metres of frontage to Warwick Road, a major arterial carrying more than 140,000 vehicles per week. The property is leased to Ampol Pty Ltd on a 15-year term to May 2031, with two further five-year options and annual rent reviews to the greater of fixed 3% or CPI, generating estimated net income of $421,858 per annum plus GST.

The adjoining Zarraffa’s Coffee occupies a 1,691sqm site and is secured by a brand new 10-year head company lease commencing May 2026, with fixed 4% annual rent reviews and estimated net income of $136,518 per annum plus GST. Importantly, Zarraffa’s elected to renew on a 10-year term rather than exercise their previous five-year option — a strong vote of confidence in the location, according to the agents.

Tim MacKinley, Managing Director of Quanta Investment Funds, told COMMO the campaign represents a significant milestone for the fund’s business plan.

“The listing of these two lots marks a key milestone in the value-creation strategy implemented at acquisition. The subdivision of the centre was always a core objective, designed to unlock additional value for investors while enhancing the long-term flexibility of the asset. Achieving this outcome is the result of several years of dedicated work by our team and project partners.”

“The strong leasing outcomes achieved, including Zarraffa’s 10-year renewal, are a testament to the active management we have applied throughout ownership and the focus we have on delivering value for investors.”

Mr Lawrence told COMMO the tenant profile and lease structures are best in class. “You have an ASX100 covenant in Ampol and a market-leading, 100% Australian-owned drive-thru operator in Zarraffa’s, both on net leases with strong rental growth. This combination of income security and location fundamentals is genuinely hard to replicate.”

He added that buyer demand for well-leased convenience retail in high-growth corridors remained exceptionally strong. “The Ipswich region continues to attract significant attention from private investors, both local and interstate, as assets of this quality don’t come around often.”

Both properties are positioned within Yamanto Village alongside Zambrero, Subway, Anytime Fitness and Noodle Box, within 500 metres of McDonald’s, ALDI, KFC, Hungry Jack’s and Red Rooster, and within one kilometre of Yamanto Central and Yamanto Shopping Village.

The Ampol at 422 Warwick Road and Zarraffa’s Coffee at 424 Warwick Road will be sold individually via CBRE Investment Portfolio Auction at 10:30AM (AEST) on Thursday 25 June 2026 at Level 3, Waterfront Place, Brisbane.
