Regarded as one of Victoria’s largest master-planned mixed-use communities, Merrifield brings more than just a place to call home but also blends in a place to learn, work and play. This estate, brought to you by Oliver Hume, brings a vibrant city with sustainable urban living to life. It can be found in Mickleham which is around 30km north of Melbourne’s Central Business District and located close to the Mount Ridley Nature Conservation Reserve.
Land For Sale
With over 3,000 people settled in at Merrifield, this estate is increasingly becoming a popular destination to call home. Currently for sale is our premier land precinct, Midtown, located in the heart of the estate. The prices of the available lots range from $302,000 to $345,000 with block sizes varying from 392sqm to 544sqm. Midtown offers the best-located land you’ll find anywhere – a quick 5 to 10-minute walk away from local neighbourhood parks, the shopping centre opening in 2020 and multiple schools opening from 2021.
Key Features
Merrifield will provide the community with a major city centre with a number of entertainment, leisure and dining options. The first stage of the regional shopping centre will open next year, featuring Coles and more than 20 specialty stores. Merrifield’s 300ha business park is creating new employment opportunities right on your doorstep with major companies like Dulux, Kaufland and more.
Transport
The closest train station would be the Donnybrook Station which is only a 6-minute drive away from the estate or the Craigieburn Station which is a 10 to 20-minute drive. By train, it takes an hour to reach the CBD or a 45-minute journey by car along the Tullamarine freeway. Merrifield offers residents exclusive use of a private bus service, Merrifield Connect, which helps the community members get to school, work or connecting bus and train services before PTV’s public bus service begins later in 2019.
Schools
Students and parents won’t have to worry with schools in the estate that is estimated to be just an 8-minute walk from home, with the first primary school announced to open in 2021. Kool Kidz Childcare and Kindergarten is already open within Merrifield. In addition to the primary and secondary schools planning to be established, there are also other options to consider from neighbouring suburbs. The Mickleham Primary School and Craigieburn Primary School are both within reach, only taking a quick 10-minute drive.
Shopping For The Family
Merrifield’s Monthly Market offers the freshest local produce and crafts direct from the growers and makers, and the onsite Corner Store café offers up delicious coffee and crepes daily. The Merrifield Shopping Centre will be an easy stroll for residents when it opens in 2020, and in the meantime Highlands Shopping Centre, Craigieburn Central and Gladstone Park Shopping Centre are all under 20 minutes away from the estate, providing a variety of supermarkets and stores for your family’s retail needs.
Surrounding Amenities
As mentioned earlier, residents won’t have to go far for a day out with nature as the Mount Ridley Reserve is just 15-minutes away. Meanwhile, Merrifield’s two neighbourhood parks are an easy 5-minute walk creating the perfect spot for some fun with the family. In addition, residents can enjoy staying fit with upcoming sporting facilities to include football ovals, linear parks, walking and cycling tracks as well as a proposed aquatic centre.
