Overview

Northcote lies just 6 km north‑east of Melbourne’s CBD in the City of Darebin and recorded a population of 25,276 at the 2021 census. The suburb centres on High Street, where historic Victorian homes sit alongside a thriving café, bar and restaurant scene, while All Nations Park, Gumbri (formerly Batman) Park and Johnson Park provide open space for sports, play and picnics. Schools such as Northcote Primary, Northcote High and Santa Maria College sit within walking distance of cultural venues like the former Northcote Picture Theatre (now a live‑music space), the Lyric Theatre and the Northcote Town Hall, giving residents a strong community‑focused lifestyle.

Transport is extensive: five train stations (Merri, Northcote and Croxton on the Mernda line; Westgarth and Dennis on the Hurstbridge line), two electric tram routes along High Street and St Georges Road, and eight bus services linking the CBD, Bundoora, Northland Shopping Centre and surrounding suburbs. This connectivity supports a mixed housing market, large Victorian houses, newer apartments and renovated homes, that has evolved from historically affordable working‑class dwellings to a gentrified precinct attracting professionals and families alike.
