Location and Lifestyle

Port Phillip's proximity to the bay and Melbourne's central activities district (CAD), its vibrant street life and cultural diversity make it an attractive place to live, work and play.

 

Melbourne's CAD is only five minutes by car and easily accessible by public transport. Local businesses enjoy modern arterial roads, nearby freeway networks providing fast, cost-effective transport across the state and across the nation and direct access to efficient distribution by air and sea to national and international markets.

 

Port Phillip also immediately abuts the Port of Melbourne, Australia's largest and most modern container port, operating 24-hours a day and handling over 40 percent of Australia's overseas container trade.

 

It's not surprising that a lifestyle by the bay, so close to Melbourne's CAD, is tightly held and keenly sought after. The resident population and local businesses enjoy an enviable lifestyle along the shores of Port Phillip Bay. Quality housing, schools, parks and recreational facilities ensure a vibrant and active lifestyle all within a close knit-community atmosphere. Combined with popular restaurants, cafes, retail strips and entertainment precincts, the local environment is not only a great place to live, but also a smart place to do business.
