52 Mort Street, Braddon ACT 2612, Australia
The premises are occupied by Avis Car & Truck Rental Canberra, providing car and truck rental services. The business is fully operational on site.
The property is located in the mixed‑use zone south of Haig Park between Mort and Torrens Streets, which permits developments up to about 22 metres in height (approximately six to seven storeys). This allows for a range of commercial or light‑industrial uses alongside limited residential or office space.
The site sits on Mort Street within Braddon's commercial corridor, close to Northbourne Avenue and the Lonsdale Street hub. It is within 0.3–0.5 km of two Metro stations (Elouera Street and Ipima Street) and is serviced by major roads, offering easy access for vehicle‑based and public‑transport users.
Within a 0.5‑km radius there are several hotels (e.g., Capital Executive Apartment Hotel, Pacific Suites Canberra), cafés, bars and breweries (Bentspoke Brewing Co, Capital Brewing Company), as well as parks such as Haig Park and Northbourne Oval. These amenities can attract customers and provide convenient services for staff.
The surrounding area includes heritage‑listed sites such as the former Coggan's Bakery and the Braddon Garden City precinct, but 52 Mort Street itself is not identified as a heritage building. Standard development controls for the mixed‑use zone would apply.
Given its existing use as a car‑rental centre, the site is suitable for automotive services, vehicle hire, logistics, equipment storage, or other light‑industrial and retail functions that benefit from street visibility and easy vehicle access.
