If neighbourhood retail is built on repeat visits and essential services, this Doncaster East mainstay has mastered the playbook. Positioned within the tightly held Tunstall Square Shopping Centre, 58 Tunstall Square offers a 67 sqm* lock-up strata retail holding inside a Coles-anchored centre that’s been serving its local catchment for decades. Offered with vacant possession and for the first time since 1990, flexibility has been hard-wired into the floorplan.
Investors secure a proven neighbourhood retail asset with clear re-leasing upside, while owner-occupiers can step straight into an established inner-east retail ecosystem supported by Chemist Warehouse, Australia Post, Grill’d, Bakers Delight, Subway, Domino’s, Bottlemart, and TAB. Exposure to Doncaster Road drives daily visibility, while rear access keeps logistics efficient. With ample shared centre parking, modest outgoings and Commercial 1 Zoning, this is a bite-sized retail opportunity in a tightly held essential-services precinct — ready to be occupied, re-leased, or simply held.

Supported by Coles and a lineup of national, necessity-led tenants, this is a centre designed for consistency, not cycles. And with the shop last trading hands in 1990 — before Google and Amazon — it’s a reminder that true retail scarcity is earned over time.

“Within a tightly held essential-services precinct, this vacant-possession retail opportunity offers steady local trade, excellent connectivity, and the flexibility to occupy, lease, or reposition in Doncaster East’s established shopping centre.”

The property comprises a single-level lock-up retail tenancy of approximately 67 sqm*, positioned within the established and tightly held Tunstall Square Shopping Centre. The tenancy presents in neat, functional condition and offers a highly adaptable layout suitable for a broad range of neighbourhood retail, service, or specialty uses.
Internally, the shop is configured with a predominantly open-plan floorplate, allowing for flexible space planning and efficient fit-out options. Finishes include durable timber-look flooring, painted masonry walls, and a suspended acoustic ceiling incorporating fluorescent light fittings that provide consistent illumination throughout the space. These improvements create a practical, low-maintenance environment and a neutral base for incoming occupiers to personalise or upgrade as required.
The tenancy benefits from a full-height glazed shopfront, enhancing exposure within the centre while allowing strong natural light penetration into the space. This frontage supports clear branding and signage opportunities and contributes to an open,
welcoming retail presence. To the rear, the property offers direct access for servicing and deliveries, supporting efficient day-to-day operations without disrupting customer flow.
Existing services and finishes are well suited to immediate occupation, while the simplicity of the improvements allows for cost-effective refurbishment or reconfiguration to suit future tenant demand. Overall, the improvements provide a versatile retail offering within a proven neighbourhood shopping environment, appealing to both owner-occupiers seeking a turnkey presence and investors looking to unlock re-leasing or valueadd potential.
