The Tie Factory - Rare warehouse shell conversion opportunities

Perfectly positioned in the heart of Carlton, The Tie Factory offers astute buyers an opportunity rarely found in such a prized residential location.

This collection of five individual titles - four warehouse shells and one classic terrace home - are being offered for the first time in over 38 years by public auction. It's also the first time the four warehouse shells have ever been offered for residential living. Each site invites buyers to craft an exceptional designer home in this tightly held suburb, with the warehouse shells in particular lending themselves to creative flair and vision.

1. History

In the 19th century the sites were a mixture of retail brick shops and small residential timber cottages. Demolished during the interwar period, the site was first redeveloped in 1941 as a watch case factory by businessman George Tilley, that produced cases for the likes of Rolex. It was then home to the Austico Tie Company, a specialty manufacturer of men's ties and accessories (now Austico Apparel).
