New estates in Officer
Know this:
- Officer is an emerging suburb between Beaconsfield and Pakenham in Melbourne’s southeast.
- It is one of the last remaining areas to be developed within the southeast urban growth boundary of Melbourne.
- Future employment precincts and opportunities will be built to the south of the suburb.
Long a sleepy hamlet nestled between the edge of Melbourne at Beaconsfield and the larger town of Pakenham, the entire region has been transformed over the past decade.
New land releases, tonnes of open space and a plethora of nearby regional destinations and attractions give Officer residents a unique lifestyle balance.
Served by the Officer train station, the area is on the Pakenham line and the journey to the city takes approximately 1 hour.
The Shire of Cardinia council offices are located in Officer and underpin a decent employment precinct in the suburb.
If you value easy access to regional areas just as much as other parts of Melbourne, Officer should be on your priority list.
Popular estates in Officer include Timbertop, Piccolo, Grandvue and Balloch Rose.
Planning for Officer
Officer boasts a sizeable regional retail offering with the Arena Shopping Centre located on the periphery of the suburb.
Precinct Structure Plans (PSPs) - used to govern how new suburbs are developed over time - also include the planning details for several local retail centres.
Officer will see several new schools and early learning centres built over the coming years.
According to the Victorian Government School Building Authority, three new integrated early learning centres will be built.
Officer also benefits from investment the Victorian Government is making in upgrades to the Pakenham Line, including Level Crossing Removals, the Melbourne Metro Tunnel project, Melbourne Airport Rail Link and the Suburban Rail Loop.
In 2025, there will be a single-seat journey through the Melbourne Metro Tunnel to Footscray, Sunshine and Sunbury. By 2029, Officer residents will be able to have a single seat journey from Officer to Melbourne Airport.
By the mid 2030s, at Clayton, Officer residents will be able to change trains to the Suburban Rail Loop and catch a train directly into Monash University, Deakin University or to Cheltenham, Glen Waverley or Box Hill for work.
