Overview

Hawthorn sits just 6 km east of Melbourne’s CBD, offering an inner‑suburban lifestyle backed by leafy streets and a strong sense of community. The Glenferrie shopping strip and nearby centres on Burwood and Riversdale Roads host supermarkets, banks, specialty stores and a celebrated range of restaurants that reflect the suburb’s cultural diversity. Residents enjoy easy access to quality schools, including Glenferrie Primary (0.2 km) and Erasmus Primary (0.3 km) , as well as Swinburne University, the Hawthorn Arts Centre and extensive parklands that were once historic brick‑making quarries. With a 2021 population of 22,322, the area blends heritage Victorian and Edwardian homes with more modest cottages, providing a varied housing mix.

Public transport is a standout feature: two railway stations (Hawthorn and Glenferrie) and tram routes 16, 48, 70, 72, 75 and 109 serve the suburb, complemented by nearby tram stops on Urquhart St/Glenferrie Rd and Manningtree Rd/Glenferrie Rd. The well‑linked network, combined with proximity to the CBD, makes Hawthorn a convenient and vibrant place to live.
