One of blue-chip North Adelaide’s finest heritage buildings is set to be reborn as a residence.

Circa-1882 Hebart Hall, at 102-120 Jeffcott Street, sold to a Sydney-based buyer for $7.5 million in a deal which has now settled.

It is part of the Lutheran Church’s broader 1.9-hectare mega-site made up of 12 separate allotments across multiple titles in a prime inner-city location, which was sold by McGees Property’s James Juers and Simon Lambert for a combined $50 million-plus.

Recognisable by its distinctive clock tower, State Heritage Register-listed Hebart Hall comprises a 22-room building of more than 1,600sqm on a site of 4,108sqm, with access from Ward and Jeffcott Streets. The entire building is protected by Heritage South Australia, excluding lean-to additions inside the wings of the building.

Juers said the buyer plans to maintain and restore the heritage aspects of the building and convert it into a residence.

“Hebart Hall attracted interest from around Australia and overseas. Buyers recognised this was a once-in-a-century opportunity to make a piece of North Adelaide’s history their own,” he said.

“It’s fantastic to see a new chapter like this for Hebart Hall, which will become one of Adelaide’s most striking homes.”

Lambert said the result reflected the strength of Adelaide’s residential and development market, particularly in blue-chip suburbs such as North Adelaide.

“People want to be close to quality hospitality and lifestyle amenity,” he said.

“Hebart Hall is close to all the restaurants, cafés, bars and shopping of the CBD and North Adelaide, and is moments from world-famous Adelaide Oval, parklands and gardens, North Adelaide Golf Course and Adelaide Zoo.”

Hebart Hall was originally built as a College on land owned by George Fyfe Angus and has been associated with education since. The building was for a short period from 1916 to 1922 used as a repatriation hospital during World War 1, before being purchased by the Lutheran Church as a College and Seminary in 1922, for which it has been used to the present day.

The Lutheran Church will remain at the site until mid-2025.

The entirety of the 1.9-hectare site has frontages to Ward, Jeffcott and Archer Streets and Wellington Square. It has the Lutheran Church in Australia’s national headquarters, and includes a residential college, apartments, hostel rooms and townhouses, an office building, refectory, library, and vacant development sites, as well as Hebart Hall. McGees’ international campaign marked the first time in over 100 years the site was for sale, and generated more than 350 enquiries and achieved a result well in excess of the vendor’s expectations.

The transaction included several buyers, from South Australia and interstate. Across the site, the buyers – including prominent local developer Genworth Group – plan a mix of both single and multi-home developments and repurposing of existing structures, potentially with high-end living, apartments, townhouses and retirement living.

The Lutheran Church will use proceeds from the sale to support its mission and ministry, and with the assistance of James Juers of McGees has found a new home in the Adelaide CBD, showcasing McGees’ end-to-end services for clients as part of its full-service offering.

More than $10 million is expected for a generational offering in one of Adelaide’smost tightly-held industrial precincts.

McGees Property Partner Andrew Wilson and McGees Senior Executive – Sales & Leasing – Industrial Logistics Marco Onorato are marketing 133-139 Bedford Street, Gillman on behalf of private owners who have held the property since 2011.

The significant property comprises a 7,873 sqm office and warehouse facility plus canopy on a 16,177 sqm site with a 75 metre frontage. It features heavy vehicle drive-around access, three-phase power supply, 30kW solar system, and sprinkler system throughout.

It is currently leased to U-Pull-It Pty Ltd until June 2025 and available for occupation thereafter.

“This is one of the best Adelaide industrial properties to hit the market in the early running of 2025,” Wilson said.

“We’re expecting statewide and national interest from investors, owner-occupier sand developers alike – this is a fantastic versatile opportunity in a prime, well-connected location.

“Positioned within the Strategic Employment Zone of the City of Port Adelaide Enfield, the property is close to Outer Harbor Port and the Defence precinct, and offers direct access to major arterial roads including the Port River Expressway and North-South Motorway.”

Onorato said owner-occupiers will note the practicality of the facility and its strategic location, accessible to key industrial locations and much of Adelaide.

“There’s strong leasing demand in core precincts. Established industrial hubs are continuing to attract tenants, with a heightened focus on well-located facilities that offer good access, quality warehousing, and flexibility.

”In McGees Property’s newly released 2025 Industrial Forecast, Wilson said that with limited land availability, investors are focusing on value-add opportunities.

“Sites that are land-rich with existing improvements that can be repositioned, upgraded, or redeveloped to maximise value in the shorter-term are particularly sought-after,” he said.

“This is a generational opportunity to acquire more than 1.6 hectares of prime industrial land at a time in which Adelaide is experiencing the most significant industrial land shortage in Australia.”
