Browse property in Murray Road

Murray Road runs through the flat, historically low‑density residential heart of Preston, where early farming gave way to neighbourhoods of modest homes and, from the 1950s onward, a substantial cohort of Housing Commission dwellings that now sit alongside medium‑ to high‑density redevelopment. The street is framed by the suburb’s traditional corridor of Plenty Road and High Street, reflecting the pattern of growth that has shaped Preston’s housing mix over more than a century.

The road is well served by public transport: the Murray Rd/Plenty Rd tram stop and Ventura’s 527 bus route run directly along it, while the Bell and Preston stations on the Mernda rail line lie a short walk away. Residents also enjoy nearby amenities such as Preston High School, the Preston Post Office, the 3KND Indigenous radio station and the former Preston & Northcote Community Hospital, as well as local cultural sites like the Gowerville and Hoyts Circle former theatres.
