Overview

Maidstone is an inner‑west suburb 8 km north‑west of Melbourne’s CBD, home to 9,389 residents (2021 Census). The area is chiefly residential, featuring period weatherboard, brick Art Deco and Californian Bungalow homes from the 1920s‑1940s, post‑war concrete houses for returned servicemen, and newer estates built on former factory sites since the 1990s. A large private golf club occupies the north‑west corner, while a small industrial zone remains in the centre, and a network of parks, including Shepherd Gardens, Drey Park and the Maribyrnong River Trail, offers green‑space for recreation and active commuting.

Excellent public‑transport links connect Maidstone to the city: tram routes 57 and 82 run along its border, West Footscray and Tottenham stations serve nearby commuters, and several bus routes link to Footscray station. The suburb is also served by schools such as Maribyrnong College and Footscray North Primary, a variety of sports clubs (soccer, cricket, tennis and golf), and nearby amenities like Highpoint Shopping Centre and Footscray Hospital, creating a well‑rounded lifestyle close to the metropolis.
