Jess Freeman • 16/08/2023

For the first time in over 40 years, a premium blue-chip retail investment located at 131 Toorak Road, South Yarra is set to hit the market as demand for retail assets remains strong.

Situated in the heart of Melbourne's utmost thriving inner-city retail precinct, this flagship freehold investment at 131 Toorak Road represents a unique opportunity & rare chance for astute investors, primed for value-enhancement, owner-occupation, land bank, or repositioning (STCA).

Boasting a tightly held land parcel of 148*sqm and featuring 5.7*m of premium, high-exposure Toorak Road frontage, this outstanding property is anticipated to be a highly sought-after flagship retail asset in 2023.

For sale through Cushman & Wakefield Melbco Strip Retail Sales in conjunction with Alexander Robertson, one of the key highlights of this premium investment is the longstanding flagship tenant, renowned florist Victoria Whitelaw, who has been an anchor for the property for over 20* years.

With 132*sqm of Gross Floor Area (GFA), this retail gem is strategically positioned to benefit directly from South Yarra’s $5.0* billion mixed-use future development pipeline and the rapidly growing population of residents, occupiers, and visitors (86,000* on average weekday) alike. Favourable ACZ1 zoning further denotes significant future development upside (STCA).

To the locals, and the hundreds of thousands of local and overseas visitors drawn to its gardens and shops each year, South Yarra may well be considered Melbourne’s most vibrant and sophisticated suburb.
