Parklife and the Doveton neighbourhood are defined by wide open areas
beneath expansive blue skies, where you and your imagination can run free.

This bounty of green space puts around 20 parks, reserves, and golf courses in your reach, along with attractions like go-karting, a drive-in cinema, kids’ play centres, and a community farm.

Parklife occupies a prized position among all this, with a swathe of
uninterrupted parkland starting 150m from the front drive, within cycling
distance of central Dandenong. It’s the ideal location for enjoying a lifestyle rich in the pleasures of the outdoors.

Doveton’s surrounds are part of an urban renewal area identified by the Melbourne 2030 growth plan, and are well served by transport and other infrastructure that will develop further in the coming decade.

Dandenong Station, which offers a convenient rail connection to the city
and intervening suburbs, is only 5 minutes’ drive away or a 10 minute cycle through parkland. It’s also the interchange point for 26 bus routes linking nearby suburbs, two of which stop less than 100m from Parklife’s front gate.

Major roads such as the Monash Freeway, Eastlink, and the Princes Highway also give drivers effortless access to the city, schools, and shopping. The main campus of Monash University, the largest in the state, is just 20 minutes away by car. From Parklife, you can go anywhere your heart desires, in the style of your choosing.

One of the major drawcards on Parklife’s doorstep is the Dandenong Market.
Founded in 1866, it’s one of the largest markets in the country, with traders from 150 different nationalities selling fruits and vegetables, meats, cheeses, coffee, clothing and other general merchandise. Whether you’re a budding chef, feeding a family, or even looking for a quick meal of some delicious street food, the market is an essential destination for produce that comes fresh from farm to table.

Nearby Dandenong Plaza is also an essential everyday destination, with more than 160 stores including three major supermarkets, while the Autumn Place Community Hub, just a short walk away near the Doveton Library, makes room for a kindergarten and community health facilities. Parklife gives you the utmost convenience, with no need to venture far from home for anything you need.

As part of a vibrant city within a city, the local area is packed with chic cafes, relaxed, friendly bars and pubs, and restaurants serving Melbourne’s famous multicultural cuisine.
