Significant refurbishment or redevelopment opportunity (STA)

Renewal SA is offering a unique opportunity to acquire a strategically positioned commercial asset within the Tonsley Innovation District — one of South Australia’s most dynamic business and research hubs. Located just 12km southwest of the Adelaide CBD, this prime property at 1 Tonsley Boulevard, Tonsley is now available for purchase via an Expression of Interest (EOI) process. The site, identified as Allotment 805, comprises the Tonsley Administration Building and Site.

Constructed in the 1960s, this three-storey commercial building features a basement level for storage, office, or workshop use, along with two upper levels of office accommodation, offering a total lettable area of approximately 12,300m2. Externally, the property includes 197 open-air, at-grade car parking spaces within a total site area of 25,780m2.

Positioned within the City of Marion’s Strategic Innovation Zone, this site is designated for a diverse range of uses, including health, education, research, commercial, hospitality, tourism, cultural, entertainment, and retail activities. The Activity Node sub-zone and associated planning overlays provide scope for innovative and high-value development opportunities.

The Tonsley Innovation District has a Business Suitability Assessment, supported by an encumbrance, that reflects the Tonsley Innovation District’s economic development objectives. Renewal SA intends to place the encumbrance on the Certificate of Title at settlement. As part of submitting a Proposal, interested parties are requested to nominate if they are aligned to the Tonsley Innovation District’s overarching objectives.

The site is also governed by the Tonsley Urban Design Guidelines and Protocols, which outline its primary designation for commercial use, while allowing for broader market offerings.

This is a rare chance to secure a landmark property within a world-class innovation district.

Renewal SA is seeking Proposals that recognise the Administration Building and Site’s significant value. To be considered for this opportunity, Proponents will need to submit a Proposal via the SA Tenders and Contracts website by 2:00pm (ACDT) on Thursday 13 March 2025.

Any questions or clarifications should be addressed to the CBRE Contact Person(s) below who are the only people authorised by Renewal SA to communicate with Proponents during this market process.
