Frasers Property Australia has won permit approval for the first stage of a retail complex in Melbourne’s burgeoning western suburb Mambourin.
Mambourin Marketplace, which will be anchored by a major supermarket operator, will feature 7200sqm of retail space, including a planned medical area, pharmacy, and up to 25 specialised retailers including fresh food grocers, cafes, and restaurants.
The first stage will be supplemented by a landscaped urban plaza with approval for a children’s play area, artwork, al fresco dining, a central events space, and end-of-trip cycling facilities including bike storage, showers, and changing rooms.
The $50 million Mambourin Marketplace will be developed by Frasers Property and will complement the recently announced Good News Lutheran College P-12 Campus.
The new retail complex will be supplemented by a gateway retail district on Black Forest Rd, which will contain a childcare facility, a gas station and fast-food options.
“Mambourin Marketplace will add to the growing list of amenities available to local residents, as well as provide job opportunities and a central meeting place for the community,” said Sarah Bloom, GM development, Victoria, with Frasers Property Australia
Mambourin Marketplace is planned to be the first phase of a broader retail complex that includes about 25,000sqm of retail space, potentially adjoining a proposed train station and local business district.
