Work boots below, walk-in wardrobes above. At 16/35–37 Canterbury Road, you’re not just buying square metres - you’re securing a rare dual-purpose asset that genuinely delivers on both fronts. The ground floor lays the foundation with clear-span warehouse practicality, high-clearance access and serious operational capability, while upstairs introduces a council-approved and building permit-approved caretaker’s residence that feels more refined apartment than industrial afterthought.
This is the kind of property that gives business owners back their most valuable commodity: time. No commute. No compromise. Lock up downstairs and walk upstairs. Oversee operations with ease thanks to the internal connection, while enjoying the privacy and comfort of a fully appointed two-bedroom residence complete with walk-in wardrobes, quality appliances and climate control. It’s an industrial investment with a lifestyle dividend - a combination that’s increasingly scarce and almost impossible to replicate in today’s tightly held market.
Equal parts warehouse workhorse and lifestyle ace card, Canterbury Road stands out not just as a place to operate from, but a place to live well while doing it.

“Braeside doesn’t hand out live/work advantages like this often. Beyond the rarity of the set-up and the calibre of the fit-out, Meat, Flour, Wine, and Braeside’s best gyms are around the corner too.”
John’s experience in commercial real estate is now pushing a decade, and over that time, he’s proud to see change when it comes to property in Melbourne. By adopting a lateral approach within a linear industry, he understands that success within Melbourne’s commercial real estate market occurs by looking beyond what has been done, to what can be. It’s an approach that mirrors this city’s originality, commercially — and with it, creativity that extends beyond St Kilda Road.

“A modern, versatile industrial asset with upgraded power and a unique outdoor space — perfect for business and lifestyle.”
Honest. Ambitious. Professional. From scaffolding sites to sales doors, Stirling built his work ethic the hard way — early starts, long days and zero shortcuts. But it was in commercial real estate that he found his stride: where discipline meets people, hustle meets strategy, and every move is about doing right by clients — helping each make decisions that matter, not just closing deals. Because Stirling knows, real estate can be complicated — but it doesn’t have to be. As the bridge, he spots opportunities, clears obstacles, and keeps clients connected to what matters most. The outcome? Smarter strategies, stronger deals, and relationships that last well beyond the contract.
At number 16, the ground floor clocks in for business — and the first floor makes sure you clock out immediately. Spanning 300 sqm* across two beautifully contrasting levels, this offering blends industrial horsepower below with a council-approved and building permit-approved caretaker’s residence above, creating a live/work format that’s equal parts practical and almost impossible to replace.
Downstairs delivers 160 sqm* of clear-span warehouse functionality, complete with containerheight roller door access, three-phase power, and the kind of open-plan versatility that suits everything from trade operations to serious storage (or the most stunning man cave Braeside has seen). Staff amenities are already in place, including a bathroom and kitchenette, keeping the day-to-day running smoothly.
Upstairs is where this asset really earns its point of difference. The 120 sqm* caretaker’s residence has been finished to an impressive standard — with two bedrooms, open-plan living, a full kitchen with oven, rangehood and quality appliances, walk-in wardrobes, bathrooms, and heating/cooling throughout. Three
allocated car spaces round out the offering, while the Industrial 1 zoning keeps the fundamentals firmly commercial. There’s even an openable internal window connection back to the warehouse, because in Braeside, even furniture removals deserve a streamlined workflow.

All signs point to: Canterbury Road.
Positioned along Canterbury Road in one of the south-east’s most tightly held commercial ecosystems, this address sits at the centre of Melbourne’s trade, logistics, and lifestyle — where owner-occupiers can take knock-offs to the beach.
Caffeinated and catered.
Braeside isn’t just forklifts and roller doors — it’s a precinct with real day-to-day amenity stitched in. With an authentic woodfire pizzeria and a bevvy of breweries just minutes away, lunch breaks, client catch-ups, and after-hours decompression come with minimal detour and maximum reward.
Industry’s inner circle.
Surrounded by some of Melbourne’s most established industrial and trade operators, Braeside continues to be a cornerstone suburb for owner-occupiers chasing proximity to Moorabbin, Mentone, Cheltenham and the broader bayside business belt.
Everything within reach.
Major retail and service amenity is close at hand, with Southland Shopping Centre, Costco, and HomeCo. Keysborough all within easy access. It’s an industrial address that doesn’t leave lifestyle at the roller door.
Connected by every corridor.
With Nepean Highway, Boundary Road, Lower Dandenong Road and EastLink forming the immediate arterial spine, access to the CBD, Port of Melbourne and the broader south-east freight network is seamless. Add in the recent Peninsula Link upgrades, and the connection south toward Mornington and the bayside corridor is now smoother, quicker, and more future-proof than ever.
Exposure gets attention — rarity holds value. In a market full of standard warehouses, this Canterbury Road offering stands apart, backed by arterial access and a level of flexibility most commercial assets simply can’t match. AND THE POINT?
All signs point to: Braeside.
Braeside began as a bayside fringe of paddocks, market gardens and open land — a quiet stretch on Melbourne’s southern edge. Today, it has evolved into one of the south-east’s most tightly held industrial strongholds.
Connectivity is a defining strength. Braeside benefits from immediate access to Nepean Highway, Boundary Road, Lower Dandenong Road and EastLink, creating fast, efficient movement north to the CBD and Port of Melbourne, east toward Dandenong and the south-east growth corridor, and west through Melbourne’s arterial freight network.
Recent upgrades to the Peninsula Link have further elevated the suburb’s strategic appeal, streamlining travel between Braeside, Bayside, and the Mornington Peninsula. These improvements have reduced travel times, improved freight efficiency, and reinforced Braeside’s role as a
key operational midpoint between metropolitan Melbourne and the peninsula’s expanding residential and commercial markets — a dynamic that continues to drive demand from both owneroccupiers and businesses servicing multiple regions.
Land value has also increased steadily over time. With a local workforce catchment supported by surrounding residential hubs and a broader south-east population now exceeding 1.3 million residents, the suburb continues to benefit from deep demographic fundamentals — reinforcing Braeside as a market where scarcity, connectivity, and long-term growth trends converge.
Private Sale by Closing Date Process
At CVA, we provide prospective purchasers full transparency, fairness, and respect during the Private Sale process. To make our point, we’ve defined and outlined the process below so you’re across it prior to submitting an offer.
1. Submitting Offers:
Offers are due no later than the date and time advertised for the Private Sale campaign. They must be submitted through this form with every section completed, signed and emailed to the relevant contact persons by campaign closure. Any offers submitted after this time will be deemed as non-compliant.
Our point of view: we recommend all interested parties submit their best offer, as the vendor reserves the right to accept an initial offer or to deal exclusively with certain offers in a second round. If you can do so, we strongly encourage submitting an offer signed on a Contract of Sale as this may influence the vendors feedback and/or decision.
2. Review Process:
All offers will be compiled and presented to the vendor for their consideration after the closing of the Private Sale campaign.
Upon feedback, we will contact all parties promptly to communicate the vendors instructions relating to their offer. In the event of a second round, we will request all offers to be provided on a contract of sale with a deposit payable to the CVA Trust account, for the vendor’s consideration.
3. Contract and Settlement
Following the acceptance of an offer, a contract of sale will be prepared. At this stage, a deposit will typically be required to secure the property. The terms of the sale, including the settlement date, will then be finalised between the vendor and the successful buyer.
We are dedicated to maintaining clear communication and ensuring that all participants are fully informed throughout the private sale process by closing date. Our goal is to provide a seamless and respectful transaction for all parties involved.
