Overview

Highett lies 16 km south‑east of Melbourne’s CBD and just 2 km east of Port Phillip Bay, offering residents quick access to the city while enjoying a coastal fringe feel. The suburb is serviced by Highett railway station on the Caulfield‑Mordialloc line, with Southland station a kilometre away, linking commuters to the wider metropolitan network. A mix of long‑standing homes and extensive renovations since the 1950s, accelerated by new apartment‑and‑shopping developments on Highett Road, has drawn younger families and professionals seeking proximity to both the city and the bay.

Local amenities include a historic strip shopping centre, the Waves Leisure Centre (an Olympic‑length pool), and Highett Library. Nearby retail and entertainment options such as Westfield Southland and Village Southland cinema, plus green spaces like Pennydale and Pobblebonk Parks, round out a vibrant community of 12,016 people (2021 Census).
