Here are some notable aspects and benefits of buying property in this area:
Suburban Rail Loop at your doorstep:
If you’re looking for a sign that this location is flagged for future growth, look to the Suburban Rail Loop. The new Monash Station is located at the intersection of Normanby Road and Howleys Road, serving as a vital interchange connecting the SRL with Monash University and surrounding areas.
Smart moves:
Moments from Ferntree Gully Road and the Monash Freeway, Howleys Road is a logistical and accessible dream. Heading 6.8 km* to the Eastlink also means you’re easily connected to the CBD or other key commercial hubs like Clayton and Mulgrave..
Friends in high-tech places:
From high-tech companies and medical research firms to distribution centres, you’re actually on Monash Innovation Hub and Monash Medical Centre territory. Tap into a growing ecosystem of research, development, and collaboration opportunities, ideal for industries like healthcare, IT, and e-commerce.
The social network:
Howleys Road is at the heart of a thriving business community, with neighbouring companies spanning everything from logistics to wholesale and tech. Being in close proximity to the Monash Business Park and Brandon Park Shopping Centre, you’ll benefit from easy access to partners, suppliers, and a broad customer base, creating a network of support and opportunities.
Amenity-rich:
From the nearby Clayton and Notting Hill railway stations to the Subway on the corner of your street, your staff (and the ones who haven’t joined yet) won’t be complaining. There’s also Muscle City for a pre-clock on pump up, a cafe a short walk away, and a computer repairs store across the road. Handy.
AND THE POINT?
Whether you’re an investor eyeing flexible lease options or a tenant seeking modern amenities and a stellar location, this space offers the perfect blend of functionality and potential for growth — making it a (unit) 12 out of 10.
A suburb named after the infamous one in London, the only hill relevant to this particular Notting Hill is the continual rise of a commercial industry that won’t plateau. Generally half residential, half industrial, this suburb has been working hard since day dot.
Today, Notting Hill is a thriving mixed-use area, home to big industries like tech, medical research, and logistics. Its proximity to Monash University and Monash Medical Centre makes it a hub for innovation, while the competitive property prices offer excellent value for businesses seeking prime locations outside Melbourne’s expensive central areas.
Notting Hill is strategically positioned within the Monash Employment Cluster, Melbourne’s largest concentration of jobs outside of the CBD. This cluster encompasses business and industrial areas around suburbs such as Huntingdale, Clayton,
and Mulgrave, highlighting Notting Hill’s significance in the broader economic landscape of Melbourne’s southeast.
While Melbourne’s office market faces challenges from high vacancy rates and remote work trends, Notting Hill remains a top contender for small-tomedium enterprises (SMEs) and tech-driven firms. Think: medical technology, logistics, and R&D, those with a demand for flexible office spaces, that can integrate sustainability and hybrid work models.
Rental demand for industrial properties is expected to remain strong, with low vacancy rates and rising rents in Melbourne’s southeast, making office space demand competitive. Speaking of competitive, the City of Monash’s goal of net zero emissions by 2025 could also drive investment in eco-friendly commercial developments, such as green-rated buildings and solar-powered warehouses.
The Suburban Rail Loop (SRL) is a game-changer for Melbourne’s public transport network, and it’s about to ramp up efficiencies for Howleys Road. The SRL will be a new 90 km* underground rail network, connecting the South-East to the NorthWest, transforming how people move around the city. Notably, the loop’s Monash Station — located at the intersection of Normanby Road and Howleys Road — will offer direct links to the city’s key employment and retail hubs.
The SRL brings immediate and long-term advantages by connecting major train services like the Frankston Line to the Werribee Line via Melbourne Airport. Once completed, the SRL is expected to carry up to 400,000 passengers per day, drastically reducing congestion on local roads and boosting accessibility to other parts of Melbourne. Whether your team is commuting to the office or clients are visiting, the SRL will make getting to Howleys Road quicker and easier than ever before, especially with reduced travel times to areas like Sunshine, Fitzroy, and Cheltenham.
The development of the SRL is also poised to drive massive economic growth across the suburbs it touches, particularly in Notting Hill. By connecting key economic hubs like Monash
University and Monash Medical Centre to major retail and business areas, the SRL will encourage more investment in the region, which in turn, will likely drive up property values and demand. As businesses flock to areas with strong transport links, Notting Hill — already a hotspot due to its proximity to Monash University and the Monash Research & Development Park — will only become hotter property.
Finally, the SRL isn’t just about getting people from A to B. It’s about future-proofing Melbourne’s growth. With $34 billion already allocated for the project, it’s not just an infrastructure upgrade — it’s a catalyst for new opportunities. Whether you’re an owner-occupier looking for a space to grow your business or an investor eyeing long-term capital appreciation, the Suburban Rail Loop guarantees better connectivity, increased demand, and an influx of people and businesses that will only add value to the Howleys Road area.
