A newly built childcare centre in Perth’s south-east growth corridor has been brought to market, offering investors a long-term income stream backed by a secure lease to an established operator.
Cuddles Early Learning & Childcare in Thornlie, located at 1 Ravenhill Road, is being offered for sale via Expressions of Interest, managed exclusively by Colliers’ Richard Cash and Aidan Austen.
The campaign closes at 3:00pm (AWST) on Thursday 16 April 2026.
Long WALE childcare investment
The purpose-built centre is licensed for 82 childcare places and sits on a prominent 1,727sqm corner site within an established residential catchment.
The asset is underpinned by a long-dated lease to Cuddles Early Learning & Childcare extending to February 2040, with two additional 10-year options, providing investors with strong income security and long-term upside.
The lease structure includes fixed 3.00% annual rent increases, delivering consistent rental growth over the term.
Essential service asset attracting investor demand
Colliers’ Aidan Austen said the offering is expected to attract broad investor interest given its combination of modern construction, long lease profile and built-in rental growth.
“This is a high-quality, newly constructed childcare investment secured by a proven WA operator and underpinned by a long WALE and fixed annual rental growth,” Mr Austen said.
“In the current market, investors continue to prioritise essential-service assets that offer long-term income security and minimal management requirements.”
Strong fundamentals in growth corridor
Located in Thornlie, approximately 15 kilometres south-east of the Perth CBD, the property benefits from its position within a well-established residential area experiencing ongoing population growth.
Colliers State Chief Executive Richard Cash said childcare assets continue to perform strongly due to their defensive characteristics and essential service nature.
“Investments underpinned by essential services such as childcare continue to attract strong investor interest, particularly when supported by long-term lease security and fixed rental growth,” Mr Cash said.
“Well-located childcare centres in established suburban catchments are proving increasingly attractive to investors seeking stable income streams.”
Expressions of Interest campaign underway
The opportunity is being offered via an Expressions of Interest campaign, closing at 3:00pm (AWST) on Thursday 16 April 2026.
