“Big power, big space, and even bigger possibilities! With 300kVA on-site and plenty of room to expand, this is a rare opportunity to secure a versatile industrial property in a prime location. Whether you’re looking to move straight in, redevelop, or reconfigure, this site has the infrastructure and flexibility to support your vision.”

Craig has been transacting commercial real estate in Melbourne’s north for more than a decade. And in that time, he’s marvelled at how the properties within this point of the city have adapted to the burgeoning urban landscape. It’s a transformation he has witnessed not just as a real estate agent but a property consultant, too. He’s equipped with the resources to think beyond today and forecast market trends, investor profitability and even Melbourne’s weather — yes, you should always pack a jumper.

Without much surprise, the site was a former foundry that handled everything in-house from sand casting, machining, and powder coating to gravity casting. Now, the two adjoining structures make up over 1,000 sqm* of total building space to play with, one with a classic saw-tooth construction and the other with a practical A-truss outfit.

Built to handle energy-intensive operations with erase, the building has an impressive 300kVA transformer. There’s also a container-height roller door and ample car spaces on-site for staff and visitors. Speaking of the outdoors, the vast 2,015 sqm* of land means there’s plenty of room for future expansion, outdoor storage, or a complete reconfiguration to suit your needs.

All signs point to: Hocking Street

A short street by distance, but getting into Hocking Street is nothing short of a long shot. From the CBD access to the impressive businesses that have already made their industrial mark here, this is an address that brings about a northern envy.

Strategically positioned with great access to the M80 Ring Road, just 850 m* from Sydney Road, and a mere 2.5 km* from CityLink, Hocking Street places you right at the heart of Melbourne’s transport infrastructure. Add to that its proximity to both Tullamarine Airport and the Port of Melbourne, and you’ve got a clever location for logistics and distribution. Public transport options are equally seamless, with Batman railway station only 900 m* away. The 19 tram, which runs directly into the CBD, is a short walk, while the 534 bus stop is in the other direction on Sussex Street.

This location is also experiencing significant economic momentum. Industrial rents in the northern suburbs have soared by 7.8% annually, and Coburg North has consistently outperformed the broader Melbourne market in terms of price growth. Even more exciting, ongoing rezoning activity in the area means that your asset has even greater potential for capital appreciation, offering a solid cash flow now and future growth down the road.

For investors, low vacancy rates and long-term leases provide a reliable income stream. And for businesses looking to occupy, the tight tenant turnover means your window of opportunity won’t last long. With Hocking Street, you’re not just investing in property — you’re securing a strategic, future-proof asset.

Strategic. Visible. Connected. They say a watched pot never boils, and the same can be said if you’ve been watching the northern commercial market closely — speciality packages this close to Melbourne’s CBD are as rare as they come. AND THE POINT?

All signs point to: Coburg North

Ever since the late 1800s, Coburg North has been a manufacturing flagship. But the arrival of the railway in the mid-19th century fueled its industrial boom, with the suburb becoming a key site for logistics and distribution — and it’s only grown since.

Industrial rents in Coburg North have surged by 7.8% annually. That’s a clear sign of the area’s booming demand for warehousing and distribution space. When it comes to growth, Coburg North is outpacing the competition, hands down.

The area is also showing impressive fundamentals, from low vacancy rates to the appealing option of purchasing via an SMSF. Plus, tax perks like GST refunds are icing on the cake for both landlords and owner-occupiers. E-commerce and logistics are the main drivers behind this growth, meaning if you’re not acting now, you’ll be kicking yourself later. For savvy investors, high yields and strong capital returns are just waiting to be claimed.

Coburg North is undergoing a transformation, evolving from a strictly industrial zone to a trendy, mixed-use neighbourhood that’s quickly catching the eye of developers, investors, and even Broadsheet editors. Its proximity to gentrifying hotspots like Brunswick and Northcote is driving demand for residential properties, which is sending property values skyrocketing. As higher-

income residents flock to the area, you can expect a boost in demand for quality retail and dining options, with new restaurants, recreational activities, and stylish bars popping up on every corner.

Whether you’re looking to invest in a rapidly appreciating asset or secure a prime location for your business, Coburg North is where you should be putting your deposits (yesterday).
