Werribee.

Peacefully positioned on the Werribee River, the suburb of ‘Werribee’ gets its name from the Victorian aboriginal name meaning ‘backbone’ or ‘spine’ and represents a handy midway point between Melbourne and Geelong. It combines the best of a coastal, rural and city lifestyle all in one and from the friendly locals to the green open spaces and access to amenity, it has it all.

It is easy to see why more and more people are moving to Werribee. Not only does it offer plenty of restaurants and cafes and the handy Pacific Werribee Shopping Centre, but the activities and attractions are plentiful. There are beautiful parklands, the Werribee Open Range Zoo (one of the best zoos in Australia), an indoor and outdoor pool, bowling, cinemas, Werribee South Beach and the State Rose Garden, not to mention the Werribee Mansion, one of the largest and most luxurious properties in Victoria. The Werribee River provides a lovely place to relax and unwind, with walking tracks and fishing.

A huge array of quality primary and secondary schools, generous well-priced homes and easy rail and freeway access to the city, makes it the obvious choice for young families, retirees and singles alike.

Community, affordability and safety converge in this quickly developing town which will soon become one of Melbourne’s most sought-after pockets.
