A prime retail freehold, well positioned in one of Melbourne’s strongest and most consistent retail strips, the property offers investors the following features:
+ Prime Puckle Street location, approximately 60 metres from Moonee Ponds Station
+ Puckle Street is one of Melbourne’s strongest and most consistently performing retail strips, benefitting from its position within Melbourne’s established inner north-west, attracting shoppers from surrounding suburbs with limited nearby competing retail strips with comparable gravity.
+ The strip is anchored by Woolworths, Coles, Kmart and Aldi and is enhanced by its abundance of at-grade convenient shopper car parking in addition to ease of transport via Moonee Ponds Station and nearby tram routes.
+ The strip is also popular with national discretionary retailers due its strong population catchment and lack of nearby competing retail locations.
+ The location has benefitted in recent years from the Moonee Ponds Activity Centre Plan (MPAC) which has encouraged medium and high density development activity immediately surrounding Puckle Street.
+ Key growth statistics forecast within the MPAC Plan (2021) including a forecast 224% growth in population, 96% growth in employment, a increase in demand for retail space of 34,841 sq m and an increase in demand for office space of 194,424 sq m.
