Commercial Property Advisors Western Suburbs

Industrial development here has concentrated around Boundary Road, Leakes Road and the Truganina Industrial Precinct, much of it built for large-format warehousing and distribution rather than smaller trade-style units. Its position off the Western Freeway and close to the Western Ring Road interchange is what makes it attractive to national logistics operators. Value here tends to sit with clear-span sheds and hardstand area rather than office fitout.

Derrimut's industrial stock runs along Ballarat Road and the streets around the Derrimut Bulk Goods Precinct, with a mix of bulky goods retail and warehousing sharing the same corridor. Its proximity to both the Western Ring Road and the Deer Park rail line supports transport and storage occupiers specifically. Sites here often carry a dual-use appeal, sitting between industrial and large-format retail zoning.

Sunshine's commercial centre is anchored around Hampshire Road and the Sunshine Station precinct, with the Sunshine Metro Tunnel works and Sunshine Priority Precinct pushing renewal through the town centre. Retail and office stock here sits close to industrial pockets further out toward Sunshine West and Albion, where older manufacturing sites are gradually being repositioned. That mix means value in Sunshine depends heavily on whether a site sits inside the renewal footprint or outside it.

Laverton North's industrial base runs through the Laverton North Employment Precinct, with sites along Fitzgerald Road and Boundary Road benefiting from direct access to the Princes Freeway and proximity to the Port of Melbourne and Melbourne Airport. Older manufacturing stock sits alongside newer logistics facilities built for that port and airport traffic specifically. Access to those two freight generators, more than presentation, tends to set what a site is worth.

Footscray's commercial centre runs along Nicholson Street, Hopkins Street and Paisley Street, with retail, hospitality and office space overlapping increasing residential development close to the CBD and the Maribyrnong River. It sits apart from the industrial precincts further west, with the Footscray Community Hub and ongoing town centre renewal shaping demand for retail and office assets specifically. Buyers here weigh street frontage and foot traffic against the redevelopment potential a site carries under current zoning.
