Permit-ready Separation Street site hits market

AS THE Geelong region continues to attract significant investment, with new businesses drawn to this thriving economic powerhouse, the appetite for new warehousing and retail space is elevated.

So it is timely that Colliers, in conjunction with Gartland Projects, brings to market 34–44 and 46 Separation Street in North Geelong, which encompasses a significant landholding.

 

This is a unique offering which presents developers with a rare headstart in North Geelong’s growth corridor.

This fast-track opportunity is a attractive chance to secure a blue-chip industrial development site in the popular Separation Street commercial precinct of North Geelong.

The substantial landholding spans approximately 2.47 hectares across two adjoining titles and comes with an approved planning permit for 49 warehouses and 14 restricted retail units, which have been architecturally designed.

 

Zoned Industrial 1 (IN1Z), the property offers exceptional flexibility for industrial, warehousing and specific retail use.

Its strategic position, directly opposite Cotton On’s headquarters, places it just minutes from Geelong’s CBD, major arterials and the Port of Geelong, with excellent connectivity to Melbourne and regional Victoria.

Colliers senior executive Ned Tansey said the site was permit-ready, which meant the hard work had already been done.

“With demand for small to mid-scale industrial units continuing to rise across the Geelong region, this is a timely and strategic acquisition,” he said.

 

“It’s an outstanding chance to capitalise on a scarce, high-exposure site in one of Geelong’s fastest-evolving growth corridors.”

Greater Geelong continues to rank among Victoria’s fastest-growing industrial hubs, driven by population growth, infrastructure investment and its strategic position as a gateway to Melbourne and western Victoria.

Scarcity of well-serviced industrial land is placing upward pressure on values and reinforcing the appeal of permit-ready sites such as Separation Street.

 

Andre Veronie, partner at Gartland Projects, said North Geelong is experiencing strong growth and transformation.

“It’s close access to major transport routes and the Geelong CBD makes it an ideal choice for businesses wanting to establish a modern facility in a premium industrial location,” he said.

“Opportunities of this scale are extremely limited in the current market, and this is the only industrial development site above 2 hectares currently for sale in North Geelong.”

The sale of 34–44 and 46 Separation Street, North Geelong is managed by Colliers’ Ned Tansey and Jonathon Lumsden, in conjunction with Andre Veronie and Michael De Stefano from Gartland Projects.
