Overview

Cheltenham sits 18 km south‑east of Melbourne’s CBD, straddling the Bayside and Kingston councils and home to 23,992 residents (2021 census). The suburb blends leafy parkland, 13 parks covering 5.3 % of the area, with extensive golf links, the historic Cheltenham Golf Club and a lively sporting scene that includes football, cricket and soccer. Shopping is anchored by Westfield Southland, a 416‑store complex that has expanded since 1968, alongside DFO Moorabbin, Kingston Central Plaza and a monthly farmers market. Families benefit from six schools, a community education centre and easy access to cafés, churches and the historic Pioneer Cemetery.

Transport is a key draw: Cheltenham railway station (Frankston line) was rebuilt in 2020 and a second station at Southland opened in 2017, while bus routes connect the commercial hub and surrounding arterial roads. Ongoing gentrification and urban development have added a diverse housing mix to the post‑World‑War II residential fabric, complemented by industrial precincts on the suburb’s edges and the forthcoming Suburban Rail Loop, slated to begin tunnelling in 2026.
