Aspendale Suburb Profile

Iconic with its colourful bathing boxes, the calm waters of Aspendale are a hotspot for swimmers, especially during the warmer months. Another much-loved part of living in Aspendale is the parklands and nature reserves sprinkled throughout. From the walking trails around Browns Reserve to Yammerbook Nature Reserve to the sporting grounds that host weekend sports; AFL, tennis, golf, and cricket, to name a few. Another big drawcard for families is the quality of schools in and around Aspendale. Plus, the quiet leafy streets lined with family abodes, but it’s the waterfront properties with uninterrupted views of the bay that are the most highly prized. A small row of shopfronts sits around Aspendale Train Station (which has commuters to Melbourne CBD within an hour), while cafés and eateries offer convenient quick bites.
When locals crave a wider variety, they need only head into neighbouring Mordialloc, which has a broader selection of bars, cafés, restaurants and grocery stores.
Living in Aspendale offers a community feel, a seaside setting, and serene parkland, which are just some of the reasons why people are looking to this beachside suburb for a home by the bay.
