CBRE has been appointed as the sole agent for the sale of 1/F, Hong Kong Diamond Exchange Building, 8-10 Duddell Street, Central. With a total floor area of 3,600 sq. ft. approximately, the Property is currently occupied by Vendor and will be sold on an “as-is” basis.
Completed in 1981, the Hong Kong Diamond Exchange Building is located on Duddell Street, close to the most famous granite staircase and 4 gas lamps connected to Ice House Street. The gas lamps are the last remaining relics in Hong Kong and are listed as declared monuments. The elegant white lift lobby is equipped with 2 passenger lifts and 1 cargo lift.
The Property is only one street away from the Central MTR station, which takes about 3 minutes to walk from. Adjacent to prime landmark buildings such as The Landmark, Nine Queen’s Road Central and Alexandra House, the Property provides a complete range of shopping, dining and leisure options. It is also accessible to Hong Kong MTR station and the IFC area through the footbridge from the Landmark.
The opportunities of purchasing commercial spaces in core Central have always been scarce, and the chance of buying a full-floor of small units are even rarer in the market. The Property is suitable for SMEs and family offices to set up their headquarters. The last transaction in the building is 4/F which is about 4,137 sq. ft., sold in 2021 at HK$125 million (unit price approx. HK$30,215 per sq. ft.).
“The Diamond Exchange Building is popular to MNCs, corporations and enterprises. For example, the American Chamber of Commerce in Hong Kong purchased the 22/F in 2020 for own use. Professional bodies such as the Hong Kong Institute of Chartered Secretaries have also settled in the building for a long period of time. Occupiers are diversified. The owner is committed to the sale and it is an outstanding opportunity for investors and users who are interested in purchasing commercial spaces in the core business district of Central. I believe it will attract many interested buyers to place a bid" said Frederick Lai, Senior Director, Capital Markets, CBRE Hong Kong.
