What you can walk to as a resident at Pace of Blackburn
Pace of Blackburn is the latest development by Pace Development Group, offering a collection of one, two and three-bedroom apartments within one of Melbourne’s premier suburbs.
The corner site fronting Whitehorse Road and Railway Road puts residents in the heart of Blackburn, within walking distance to a number of local amenities as well as extensive transport links to connecting residents to the city.
Pace of Blackburn is just 25 minutes to the CBD, with bus routes 271 and 279 running near the development and the Blackburn train station just a 10-minute walk.
The community is home to one of Melbourne’s largest pockets of greenery: Blackburn Lake Sanctuary, as well as Blackburn Medical Clinic and Box Hill Hospital.
Investors are likely to see a decent uptake from students, with the development located just seven kilometres from Deakin University - as well as there being three other universities within an 11 kilometre radius.
Cafés, restaurants and take-away favourites are sprinkled all around Pace of Blackburn with an emphasis on great coffee and family favourites.
Lily Loves George serves up unique and nutritious breakfasts along with an impressive Reuben and super salads for lunch. For the sleepyheads, there’s all-day breakfast at Black Alchemy whilst the Food Republic puts modern European fusion to work.
