A rare Freehold corner holding offering immediate income, land-banking strength, and genuine development upside.
Occupying a prominent 3,667m² (more or less) corner site, 540 Motel presents a strategic acquisition within one of Auckland’s most established accommodation and employment corridors. The property comprises 38 motel units plus a spacious two-bedroom owner/manager’s residence, making it equally compelling for passive investors, hands-on owner-operators, and future-focused developers.
Zoned Business – Mixed Use, the site provides long-term flexibility. The existing operation delivers high holding income, while the zoning allows for future intensification or redevelopment. A previous resource consent for a 64-room hotel expansion confirms the site’s development capability and significantly reduces planning risk.
The location benefits from sustained demand generated by Middlemore Hospital and its medical precinct, the Otahuhu Transport Hub and train station, Auckland International Airport, and surrounding industrial and commercial employment zones. This positioning supports consistent demand from corporate travellers, medical staff and patients, workforce accommodation, and transit guests, providing income resilience across multiple segments.
540 Motel offers multiple pathways to value, whether as a stable investment, a future development opportunity, or a sizeable owner-operated business with on-site accommodation and immediate cashflow.
Freehold assets of this scale and flexibility are increasingly scarce, making 540 Motel a compelling Auckland opportunity with both income security and long-term upside.
