What’s more, the local café culture is also among some of Melbourne’s best, with everything from the latest brunch destinations to wholesome dining. Away from bustling Koornang Road are leafy streets lined with family homes and modern townhouses, lush parkland with a swimming pool, and sun-kissed playing fields. And just around the corner from all of this is Chadstone Shopping Centre, one of Melbourne’s most revered fashion hubs. Adding to Carnegie’s winning lifestyle is its access to quality schools and unbeatable transportation services (train, tram and bus lines) that links to nearby beaches, the city and universities.
