Overview

Yarrambat lies 24 km north‑east of Melbourne’s Central Business District, within the Shire of Nillumbik and just beyond the metropolitan Urban Growth Boundary. At the 2021 census it had a population of 1,602, offering a blend of historic charm and “high hills” vistas that give the suburb its name. The town’s roots in gold mining and orchard farming have evolved into an affluent, semi‑rural lifestyle where residents enjoy spacious surroundings while remaining within easy reach of the city.

Local amenities include a post office, vet clinic, child‑minding centre, general store, memorial hall, CFA fire station and a mobile library service. Families benefit from Yarrambat Primary School, recently upgraded with modern learning spaces, plus a kindergarten and a private school. Sports and recreation are centred around Yarrambat Park, which hosts a golf course, football, cricket, netball, archery, fly‑fishing, model aircraft and little‑athletics clubs. Recent subdivision of 1‑hectare parcels has produced large prestige homes, reinforcing the suburb’s reputation for generous land allotments and high‑quality housing.
