A Neighbourhood
Within A Park
Designed to be a neighbourhood within a park, botanical green spaces form the cornerstone of Moonee Valley Park’s vision.
Moonee Valley Park has been designed around a nature-based philosophy, bringing together urban living and an abundance of botanical green space.
Award-winning landscape architects Tract have created a diverse network of rainforest, woodlands, historic trees and ornamental gardens, with approximately 50% of the overall site dedicated to new botanical green spaces.
For residents, this means nature is part of everyday life. From your doorstep, you’ll have access to generous parklands, walking and cycling paths, sporting fields, playgrounds and green community spaces – creating opportunities to be active, unwind and connect with the outdoors.
With buildings thoughtfully integrated into the landscape and everyday conveniences within walking distance, Moonee Valley Park offers a more connected, walkable way of living, with the benefits of nature woven into the neighbourhood.
