Blue-chip Melbourne CBD Laneway Investment Sells

One of the Melbourne CBD’s first blue-chip laneway offerings for 2026 has sold.

Fitzroys’ Mark Talbot and James Lockwood sold 20 Russell Place, Melbourne for $1.29 million, on a 5.6% yield.

The 55sqm ground floor property sold with a new 5+5-year lease to a tenant trading under the New York City fashion label Knickerbocker name.

“Buyers were attracted to the iconic East End laneway address and secure lease to a highly-regarded New York City fashion label,” Talbot said.

Lockwood said the location also offered excellent future growth prospects, which attracted interest from both investors and buyers with an eye to future occupation.

The Russell Place thoroughfare itself between Little Collins and Bourke streets has been undergoing extensive revitalisation, evolving into a destination in its own right for boutique retail, dining and nightlife experiences, he said.

The city more broadly is also presenting excellent opportunities, he added.

“Melbourne’s CBD has had a fantastic start to the year, with people returning to the office, the opening of the Metro Tunnel, and the Australian Open and recently-completed developments and new retail offerings bringing in huge crowds.”

The Peninsula’s Premier Pharmacy Investment

The Mornington Peninsula’s premier pharmacy-leased investment property is going to auction this month.

Tom Fisher and David Bourke of Fitzroys are marketing the high-profile freehold at 1045 Point Nepean Road, Rosebud, with the auction scheduled for Saturday, 14 March at 11am.

The single-level 235sqm building boasts an exceptional 8.1m street frontage to Point Nepean Road, and has a 5 + 5-year lease to an established tenant trading as Amcal (more than 200 stores across Australia), returning $101,092 plus outgoings and GST.

“The vitality of this property to this thriving coastal precinct is reflected in the fact that the site has been operating successfully as a pharmacy for over 65 years,” Fisher said.

“The high-quality essential services tenant and the prime location offer excellent investment security.”

On a generous 290sqm Commercial 1-zoned landholding with rear access via ROW, the property is in an absolute prime position within the Rosebud shopping and lifestyle precinct, anchored by Woolworths, Westpac, Bendigo Bank, Peninsula Cinemas, Rosebud Hotel and more, with an abundance of surrounding public parking options, and opposite the popular Rosebud Beach and foreshore.

According to research house .id, the Mornington Peninsula is set to see population growth of nearly 10% over the next 20 years, further underpinning demand for services, Bourke noted.
