FEATURES

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.

04 344 - 346 FERNTREE GULLY ROAD, NOTTING HILL INFORMATION MEMORANDUM WWW.CVA.MELBOURNE 04 LOCATION

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.

LOCATION
A new train station on Howleys Road, Notting Hill, is part of the Suburban Rail Loop (SRL) - Victoria’s Big Build. Exit the Monash Freeway at Ferntree Gully Road for easy access to the property. Bus route 693 has stops within metres of the property.

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).

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.”
