Overview

Reservoir lies 12 km north of Melbourne’s CBD in the City of Darebin and recorded a population of 51,096 at the 2021 census. The suburb blends classic brick and weatherboard homes with a steady flow of new developments, offering a diverse housing mix. Residents enjoy Edwardes Lake Park, the Reservoir Leisure Centre, and vibrant local retail on Edwardes Street and Broadway, while nearby Northland Shopping Centre, Preston Market, Sydney Road eateries and one of Melbourne’s three remaining drive‑in cinemas add further convenience. A mosque built by the Albanian Australian community reflects the area’s cultural variety.

Transport options are extensive: four Mernda‑line stations (Reservoir, Regent, Keon Park and Ruthven), two tram routes along Gilbert Road and Plenty Road, and twelve bus services connect the suburb to universities, shopping precincts and the wider city. Easy access to the Northern/Western Ring Road, Hume, Tullamarine, Calder and Eastern freeways, plus the Merri Creek and Darebin Creek cycling trails, supports both commuters and active lifestyles, while an upcoming underground rail loop will include a new Reservoir station.
