JOHN HAYSON-CURRENT PROJECT

 

Description

 ERA on Springfield and The Village Centre have recently been completed on a 1500 sq.m site on the heart of Potts Point. The site was previously occupied by the old Kings Cross Village Centre which was demolished in 2007.
In its heyday the Kings Cross Village Centre was the retail and commercial hub of Kings Cross and Potts Point and was the central meeting place for the people of King Cross, Potts Point and Elizabeth Bay.
ERA on Springfield now comprises 44 luxury lifestyle strata title boutique office suites in a five storey building over the Village Centre. Each suite has a bathroom with shower and a kitchenette with integrated dishwasher and refrigerator.
The new Village Centre comprises 16 specialty shops on the ground level fronting Llankelly Place and Harris Farm Markets on the Springfield Avenue lower ground level.
The new building was designed by Stanisic Associates Architects and constructed by Richard Crookes Constructions with completion in December 2009.
Due to officially open in early 2010, ERA on Springfield and the Village Centre have been designed to high environmental standards with innovative features to attain an equivalent 4 1/2 star Australian Building Greenhouse Rating. (ABGR ).
These features include a five storey high breezeway through the centre of the building, an elevated garden courtyard, airy verandahs enclosed by glass louvres, energy use meters and rainwater harvesting for irrigation.
The people from the Macleay Street area will once again be able to take the short cut “ants track’ through the Village Centre to and from Kings Cross railway station and pick up their fresh food and specialty goods on the way.
The Village Centre will once again make available a new and invigorating meeting place in this previously neglected location.
The new Village Centre will inject new life into the immediate area and provide a major contribution to the City Council’s visions for a revitalised Potts Point and Kings Cross.

1988 – Present (26 years) Sydney, Australia

In 1987, Northbridge Plaza was purchased by a family company as a distressed and under-performing centre. It was renovated and extended 4 times and the tenancy was remixed constantly. It was sold in 2004 as a top performing centre with an extensive waiting list and arguably the best sales per square metre per annum in Australia.Readmore

JOHN HAYSON SILVERSTREAM ESTATES PROJECT

SILVERSTREAM ESTATES™

Silverstream Estates™, Kaiapoi is located 20 minutes North of Christchurch City Center and is easily accessed by turning left at the Ohoka Exit on the Northern Motorway. It is sited on picturesque land with a pristine stream running throughout and within walking distance of Kaiapoi's riverside shops, eateries and bars.

The Estate when completed will include abundant green reserves, playgrounds, cycle tracks, stream-side walkways with activities and convenience shopping to create a community environment with old fashioned neighbourhood values.

550 of a possible 1115 sections were released for sale in December 2011. The Prime Minister, John Key opened Stage 1 on 28 June 2012 together with Earthquake Recovery Minister, Gerry Brownlee and Minister Kate Wilkinson. Stage 2 is now completed and Stage 3 is underway.

Clients can buy land, design and build their home with a builder of their choice or purchase completed house and land packages. There will also be a selection of 2, 3 and 4  bedroom villas with their own title and also some strata titled units. Some villas will be along the stream-side with reserve areas.

John Hayson Offers New House and Land Packages for New Home Buyers at Silverstream Estates.

 Silverstream Estates Limited is a real estate development company owned by Sydney-based developer John Hayson. The company is conducting extensive residential development at Silverstream, Christchurch, which includes villas, green reserves, playgrounds, cycle tracks, fitness facilities and more.

Located 7 minutes north of Christchurch on a picturesque site with a pristine stream flowing by, the Silverstream Estates is a much larger project undertaken by Hayson. Once completed, the estate would provide up to 1115 lots of residential land for new homebuyers, promising a true village lifestyle. The site is very close to Kaiapoi’s riverside shops and restaurants, giving the residents enough opportunities to socialise and shop. To make this place safe and secure for its residents, John Hayson has also taken the initiative to remove the pylons and accompanying power-lines and place them underground. This milestone project would begin in early 2013.


The company is offering as many as 20 house and land packages priced to suit different requirements of the home buyers. In collaboration with its established building partners, the company has designed a range of houses with 4, 3 and 2 bedrooms.

Moreover, with home insurance cover available through Westpac bank, buying a house or land in Silverstream Estates is no longer a hassle. Westpac has successfully broken the deadlock in the city and has given a reason of joy for home buyers, especially those whose property and lives were devastated in the recent earthquakes. Under the ‘Canterbury New Build Pac,’ a Westpac home loan would be provided, along with a transactional account, contract works and home cover. The service is available to new and existing Westpac customers who are ready to start on residential builds or purchase a new house in Canterbury.

The Home cover would be on a sum insured basis, meaning customers insure for full replacement, up to the specified value.

John Hayson Development

NorthbridgePlaza

John Hayson Purchased NORTHBRIDGE PLAZA in 1987, this centre comprised a Woolworths Supermarket and 34 speciality shops.

One of the worst performing retail centres in Sydney it requires  major internal reconstruction to correct design flaws, refurbishment and a new tenancy mix with intensive management .

The major redesign work was done in the internal mall area and new quality retailers were brought  in to meet customer needs. After 4 major renovations, 11 shop additions and tenancy mix upgrades.

 Moreover, additional land was purchased to extend Woolworth’s and create a supermarket on the North Shore of Sydney. Since the redevelopment, the centre witnessed a significant improvement in sales and customer traffic. The shopping centre was sold in 2004.

John Hayson has devloped successfully trading centre with a welcoming environment and a wonderful  place to shop and meet. It was a community and a focal point for the community.

Northbridge Plaza supported the community financially and in many other ways.

Neeta City Shopping Centre

Another underperforming shopping centre acquired by John Hayson was the Neeta City Shopping Centre 

in Fairfield, Sydney in 1994. The centre comprised of a Target Discount Department Store, Woolworth's  Supermarket, Bi Lo Supermarket and 67 speciality shops. The sales were depressed, customers were not coming in and retailers were moving out. The flawed customer traffic flow was caused by too many entrances and poor anchoring of the centre, where one end of the centre was left almost

vacant. During the redesign and  redevelopment work, Woolworth’s was relocated to the underperforming end of the centre to give a good 

reason to customers to visit that end area of the centre. The old supermarket site was divided into  smaller tenancies including Best and Less, Westpac, Retravision and many others. Since the redevelopment, new tenancies have been attracted, Sports girl, Australia Post, McDonald's, SydneyWater, Tandy and many  more tenants were attracted to complete the tenancy mix.It was sold in February 1996 for more than 3 times its purchase price. The centre was now fully occupied and trading well.

Woolworth’s Sconefree Standing Supermarket

H Investments International Pty Limited was approached by Woolworth's to jointly develop a new free-standing  supermarket in Scone NSW. The company owned and jointly constructed a new free-standing supermarket in the city,offering new shopping opportunities to the community in Scone.

It was an amalgamation of land and Woolworths project managed the construction.

The supermarket was sold in 2000.

Milton Apartments Mixed Residential & Retail

This is a mixed development with retail shops and residential apartments in one of Brisbane's cafe precincts  offering inner city living in a highly sought after environment.Located across the road from the Milton  railway station, a close walk to the rivercat, only 1.5 kilometres from the City centre and even closer  to Suncorp Stadium, these apartments offer stylish living and easy transportation.There have been many changes to the development over the years. The initial approval provided for ground floor retail and  approximately 54 apartments. Planning changes encouraging transport oriented development allowed increased density resulting in a residential tower of 20 storeys with 100apartments and commercial tower of 8  storeys with ground floor shops. A final redesign resulted in two  residential towers of 243 apartments with ground floor retail. The site was sold in December 2012.Readmore
