A large industrial property in Melbourne’s west is available for lease, with occupiers expected to be drawn to not only the very sizeable site and building area, but a 100-tonne container rated hardstand area.
The facility at 557 Derrimut Road in Derrimut consists of a 27,185sq m office/warehouse on a 6.46-hectare site.
With just 42% site coverage for the building on the Industrial 2 zoned site, the property also has 11,703 sq m of 100-tonne container-rated hardstand area.
It also has a large power supply, drive around capability, cross dock warehouse and an extensive 277 metres of main road frontage.
The Derrimut facility is being marketed for lease by Knight Frank agents Steve Jones and Joel Davy in conjunction with Tom Molinary and Simon Wellock of Cushman and Wakefield on behalf of the landlord, Lendlease.
The property is situated within close proximity to major arterials the M80 and M1 Freeway and has direct exposure onto Mount Derrimut Road. In addition, the site is just 16km from the Port of Melbourne and 24.8km from Melbourne Airport.
Mr Davy said: “The 100-tonne container rated hardstand component of this property makes it incredibly unique.
“There are few warehouses in the surrounding area having this specification of hardstand, and with demand outweighing supply for properties with a strong hardstand component, this will be a key factor in attracting strong tenant demand.
“The lack of intermodal transport hubs across the state has intensified demand for sites with container handling ability.
“As supply chain optimisation remains a priority across sectors, having significant heavy-duty hardstand near arterial networks will be sought after by companies looking to consolidate storage space and look for efficiencies in operations.
“The uses for this durable hardstand include container storage, frequent heavy vehicle movement, heavy-duty machinery and outdoor equipment use.”
Mr Jones said in addition to the hardstand component, the Derrimut property would also appeal due to its overall size, location and zoning.
“An Industrial 2 zoning makes it suitable for a variety of uses.
“As well as being well connected to major arterials, the property is also relatively close to the intermodal freight hub in Altona and the Port of Melbourne, making it well suited to companies focused on freight movement, warehousing and logistics.”
