Rex Avenue Alphington, VIC 3078

Rex Avenue is framed by the leafy, garden‑set streetscapes that dominate Alphington East, where detached Edwardian and inter‑war homes sit alongside later Queen Anne, Federation and Californian Bungalow‑style houses, echoing the suburb’s late‑19th‑century boom and early‑20th‑century development. The avenue is just a short walk from the historic stone‑shop strip on Heidelberg Road and the nearby Yarralea Street corner, which retains early‑20th‑century commercial buildings.

Excellent public transport links serve the area, with Alphington railway station on the Hurstbridge line, six bus routes (including the 250/350 to the CBD and La Trobe University and the 508 to Moonee Ponds), and the Chandler Highway providing quick road access across the Yarra River. Residents also enjoy abundant amenities such as the Darebin Parklands, Alphington Park, Latrobe Golf Club, several local schools (Alphington Grammar, Primary and St Anthony’s) and a range of sporting clubs from football to netball.
