ALL SIGNS POINT TO: NOTTING HILL.
Getting to Notting Hill from Melbourne’s CBD is an easy 28* minute trip that is facilitated by proximity to the Monash Freeway (M1), a straightforward route that also connects to Citylink for a direct journey from the airport. Locally, major thoroughfares heading north-south include Springvale, Blackburn and Clayton Road’s, while Ferntree Gully Road itself feeds off the Princes Highway famously Alt Route 1 part of the nationwide Highway 1.
Positioned to offer maximum exposure on high volume Ferntree Gully & Blackburn roads, this dynamic asset is poised to benefit from the impending construction of the Suburban Rail Loop just metres away which will have a major impact on the area’s flow of visitors and accessibility, while proximity to Monash University and Monash Medical Centre also bolsters the influx of traffic.
In terms of public transport, Bus route 693 has stops within metres of the property and train stations along the Glen Waverley, Cranbourne & Pakenham lines are easily accessible.

AND THE POINT?
Getting there is easy, and once you’re there you can’t miss it.
SRL will shape the future liveability, productivity and connectivity of Melbourne.
The new station at Monash will connect more people to Melbourne’s largest employment and innovation hub outside the CBD – providing students, employees and visitors with a direct train connection to the area for the first time.
Construction expected to commence in 2023.




Local anchor tenants.



SUBURBAN RAIL LOOP
The proposed SRL station at Monash is located to the north of Normanby Road and east of Howleys Road in Notting Hill. The area is characterised by a mix of education, health, commercial and residential land uses. Existing transport connections include local bus services and a new bus interchange is proposed to facilitate better local public transport connection and better connecting Victorians to jobs, retail, education, health services and each other.
Suburban Rail Loop will deliver a 90km rail line linking every major train service from the Frankston Line to the Werribee Line via Melbourne Airport.

Three transport super hubs at Clayton, Broadmeadows and Sunshine will connect regional services, so passengers outside Melbourne won’t have to travel through the CBD to get to employment, world-class hospitals and universities in the suburbs.
Two of the four stages are already under construction. Work is underway on SRL Airport from Melbourne Airport to Sunshine, and on SRL East from Cheltenham to Box Hill.
ON THE MAP: NOTTING HILL.
Named by European settler Thomas Wilkinson after London’s famed neighbourhood, the suburb of Notting Hill is situated 19km* south-east of Melbourne’s central business district. A small area abutting suburbs such as Mulgrave, Clayton, Glen Waverley and Mount Waverley, Notting Hill has a small residential population of under 3000, but attracts national and foreign corporate investment thanks to its easy access via multiple major arterials and highways as well as the reliable public transport infrastructure that is soon to be boosted by the Suburban Rail Loop.
Some of the prominent names to set up here are manufacturers including The Natural Confectionery Company and Musashi Foods along with international freight and customs business Tomax Logistics, Optiscan Imaging and the Carrier Corporation – and major retailers including Bunnings, Total Tools & Ikea have also chosen the neighbouring areas to establish outlets.
Notting Hill locals enjoy proximity to nearby Brandon Park or Pinewood shopping centres for daily shopping needs, or head to Chadstone – Fashion Capital (just 6 kms* away) or the Springvale Homemaker Centre (4.6 kms* away).

TENANCY SCHEDULE
PHILIP DIRECTOR - SOUTHERN REGION
POINT OF INTEREST:
An agent that turns first impressions into lasting commitments. Since the early days of his career, Daniel has established a level of service that is defined by in-depth market knowledge, expert advice and responsive communication. Committed to creating value in the commercial real estate opportunities he matches with his clients’ objectives, and the ability to think outside the square. Especially if that extends well beyond Melbourne’s inner-city grid.


POINT OF VIEW:
“Commercial real estate is underpinned by longevity. In the loyal client partnerships we establish and the value we create on a trusted basis, it’s a partnership that starts here, but sees each individual reach their own objectives.”
NOCKLES DIRECTOR - AGENCY
POINT OF INTEREST:
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, John understands 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.
POINT OF VIEW:
“The Melbourne commercial property market has always been about rationale in dollars and cents. But, when working with rising land values and changes in the way that occupiers use commercial property, the market now requires those that will help shape it to be more creative than ever.”

Buildings and works Building and car park setbacks
Buildings and car park areas must be set back from the front boundary of a site at least the distance specified in the table at Clause 7.0 of this schedule.
Buildings and car park areas must be set back from the boundary of a site at least the distance specified in the table at Clause 8.0 of this schedule.
Buildings must be set back from land in a residential zone or land used for a hospital or school at least the distance calculated by the following formula:
Distance = H/2 + 1.5m
■ where H = height of building nearest the boundary in metres.
Buildings and car park areas must be set back at least 3 metres from a boundary with the Monash Freeway or the reservation extension of Westall Road (between Princes Highway and the Monash Freeway). The setback area must be landscaped.
Fences in front setback areas
A permit is required to construct a fence in the area between the front wall of a building and the street. This includes a front fence and a side boundary fence between the street boundary and the alignment of the front wall nearest the street.
Front fences must be set back from the front boundary of a site at least the distance specified in the table at Clause 7.0 of this schedule.
A fence must be:
■
No higher than 2 metres.
■
Screened by trees and shrubs planted between the front property boundary and the fence.

■ Painted a visually recessive colour. Unpainted galvanised steel or wire fencing is not acceptable.
Designed to reflect the style, materials and common characteristics of fences in the neighbourhood.
Engineering design
Established engineering treatments must be used where new streets or accessways, including kerb radii, kerb and channel materials, nature strips and road surface details, meet existing streets.
New accessways and streets must be designed so that they fit in with existing streetscape details. In particular:
■
The accessway or street must be no wider than other accessways or streets within the neighbourhood that perform a similar function.
■ Kerb details and corner radii of accessways and streets must be consistent with those in similar locations in the street.
Services
All services, including electricity and telecommunication facilities, must be located underground.
Rubbish enclosures and service areas must be screened and located to the rear of buildings.
Rubbish bins, enclosures and loading docks must not be visible from a street.
Exemption from notice and review
An application which complies with the building and works requirements in this schedule is exempt from the notice requirements of Section 52(1)(a), (b) and (d), the decision requirements of Section 64(1), (2) and (3) and the review rights of Section 82(1) of the Act.
Application requirements
