Browse property in Matthews Avenue

Matthews Avenue forms the commercial spine of Airport West, running past the Westfield Airport West shopping centre and bordered by aviation‑themed street names that echo the suburb’s historic ties to Essendon and Melbourne airports. The surrounding residential blocks were largely laid out in the 1950s‑60s after the former Spring Park and Niddrie farms were subdivided, giving the street a mid‑century suburban streetscape.

Tram route 59 travels the length of Matthews Avenue, stopping at Hawker, Earl, Cameron, Marshall and Fullarton streets and linking directly to Melbourne’s CBD, while the Tullamarine Freeway and Calder Highway lie just to the east and south and the Albion‑Jacana freight line skirts the suburb’s north‑west edge. Amenities include Westfield Airport West with major retailers and a Village Cinemas complex, nearby schools such as Niddrie Primary and St Christopher’s, and a selection of hotels and light‑industrial businesses within walking distance.
