Property Description

Occupying a prominent position on Queens Drive, this three-level commercial building sits within Lower Hutt’s main retail precinct.

Being sold vacant possession and just steps from Queensgate Shopping Centre and benefitting from excellent street exposure and parking, the property offers a prime opportunity for transformation.

Originally designed in the 1960s by Stapleton Architects, the building features a high-stud retail level and two upper floors built around a central light-filled courtyard—an ideal configuration for boutique accommodation or apartment conversion.

Reinforced-concrete construction, rear service-lane access, and five on-site car parks further enhance its versatility.

With demand rising for central city living and alternative housing models, this property presents an exceptional canvas for redevelopment into boutique hotel suites, modern apartments, or community-focused social housing.

Its position, structure, and character provide a strong foundation for creative re-use in one of Lower Hutt’s most connected and evolving locations.
