Overview

Brighton East lies 12 km south‑east of Melbourne’s CBD, straddling the Cities of Bayside and Glen Eira. At the 2021 census it had 16,757 residents. The suburb is bounded by Nepean Highway, North Road, Thomas Street and South Road and is prized for large parks such as Dendy Park, Hurlingham and Landcox. Local schools include St Finbar’s Primary, Brighton Secondary College, Haileybury College, Gardenvale Primary and St Leonard’s College, with Bentleigh West Primary nearby.

Several tram stops on Hawthorn Road and nearby streets provide convenient links to the city and bayside suburbs. The parks host active clubs – East Brighton United Football, Brighton Soccer, district cricket and tennis – and the Brighton Bowls Club sits on Dendy Park’s edge. Together with easy access to the Nepean Highway, these amenities sit within a primarily residential area offering a range of housing close to schools, sport facilities and green space.
