Project Description

Live Connected

Donnybrook Station is just a few minutes’ walk from anywhere within Platform. Being four stops and a little over half an hour to the CBD ensures that life at Platform is conveniently connected to established commerce. Plans are already underway that will see Donnybrook Station transformed by a multi-million-dollar upgrade into a modern commuting hub. Future electrification of the north–east line will create a metropolitan train, rather than a regional service. An interchange upgrade to the Hume Highway will provide Platform residents with continuing direct access to the ever-expanding amenity in Melbourne’s north, as well as an easy 40-minute drive to the CBD.

Live in Nature

Although it’s a new community, Platform’s natural environment is as old as time. Kinglake’s rolling hills and lush bushland is the outstanding view across our northern horizon. The crisp, clear waters of Merri Creek meander through Platform, running north–west. The waterway crosses over Donnybrook Road and burbles towards Melbourne through a healthy ecosystem protected by conservation zones. Surrounding landscaped parklands are designed sympathetically to indigenous flora and fauna. In turn, we’ll have a recreational haven for all, providing ample space for active families, while homes and other buildings will feel connected to the existing natural environment.

Lifestyle

We’re planning for a vibrant, modern community with close access to essential neighbourhood amenities. Platform sits at the gateway to broader town-planning that takes good care of family and commuter needs. Lifestyle, transport, educational, and health & wellbeing offerings are all within easy reach. Anything needed in the CBD is only a 35-minute train ride away.
