Burton Place: In the centre of everything Ashburton has to offer
Leeka Group set out to create a project that places residents right in the centre of a vibrant, walkable village atmosphere.
Cue Burton Place, a collection of just eight townhouses ideally located in the heart of Ashburton in Melbourne's south-east, a stone's throw from shops, parks and public transport.
Set among tree-lined streets and steps from parklands, cafés, and top schools, Burton Place delivers everyday convenience in a coveted pocket of Melbourne’s east. Its location, just off High Street Road, gives residents direct access to the suburb’s lively shopping strip and the expansive greenery ASHBURTON is known for.
A five-minute walk connects residents to ASHBURTON Village and its 150+ specialty stores, boutique cafés, fresh produce outlets and take-away dining spots like The Habitat Café and Coriander Thai Kitchen.
The townhouses are also just three kilometres from the famous Chadstone Shopping Centre and Chadstone Hoyts Cinemas.
ASHBURTON boasts expansive parklands, reserves, and public gardens. Just metres away from Burton Place, ASHBURTON Park and Markham Reserve offer family-friendly recreation, with playgrounds, BBQs, sports fields, a community garden, and a scenic cyclist path alongside Gardiners Creek.
Aside from BMX, scooter and skateboard riders, Markham Reserve is popular for picnickers and pet owners for its outdoor seating, shelter, and off-leash dog area.
On the southern part of the reserve is the Malvern Valley Public Golf Club, one of a handful of golf courses within five kilometres of Burton Place.
Commuters will have a number of options to head into the city. ASHBURTON and Alamein Stations connect to Camberwell and the CBD in under 40 minutes, while Bus 903 and 734 routes link to major eastern suburbs hubs.
Burton Place is also conveniently located to many of the eastern suburbs’ most prestigious schools and tertiary institutions.
Families with young ones from six weeks to six years will have the option to enrol at Nino Early Learning Centre on nearby Warrigal Road, ASHBURTON Primary School a two-minute drive away, or the independent co-ed day school Huntingtown School in nearby Mount Waverley for children pre-prep to Year 12.
Close-by private schools include St Michael's School, Salesian College, and the Wesley College Glen Waverley campus, 10 minutes away. Deakin University and Monash University are also within three kilometres from Burton Place.
Burton Place comprises eight four-bedroom townhouses across two symmetrical three-story residential blocks.
The development is now 90 per cent complete, with move-in anticipated in August 2025.
