Three iconic retail spaces on a prominent South Melbourne corner are now up for grabs.

The iconic South Melbourne Fish and Chip shop is one of five longstanding tenants at No. 360-362.
A barber shop also occupies one of the corner spaces.
Upstairs is an office space, currently occupied by GoSwitch energy suppliers.
All three properties are being auctioned at the agency’s 152 portfolio auction at Melbourne’s Crown Casino on May 11, with up to 30 properties set to go under the hammer on the day.
Burgess Rawson Melbourne’s Beau Coulter is confident the properties will sell, particularly due to their convenient proximity to the casino, South Melbourne Market, the Grand Prix circuit and local shopping centres.
“It’s likely that it could be one buyer for all three,” he said.
“Someone will probably go for 360-362 and then look to purchase the other two as well.”
The former, on a 262 sq m land footprint, comprises five longstanding tenants.
On the ground floor lies the iconic South Melbourne Fish and Chip store, plus Relief Unit. 1 cafe, Good Barbershop and Chiill Sports.

Mr Coulter said the agency has had good interest in the properties thus far, which was “to be expected given the location.”
“There’s been a lot of interest from investors but also future owner-occupiers for the retail spaces,” he said.
“This really speaks to the strength of the location and also how the retail strip is bouncing back after Covid.”
