The tram line runs the length of the road in the suburb, connecting locals with Melbourne CBD and other on-trend urban hubs – Caulfield, Elsternwick and St Kilda, while Glenhuntly Railway Station sits on the Frankston train line.
Year-round, Booran Reserve is a lively spot for families with its oversized structures and water play feature, and the cycle paths that link to neighbouring Caulfield and Monash University, make popular travel routes for locals. For cyclists who like to amp it up a little, the velodrome in neighbouring Carnegie is open to the public.
Although the homes themselves – townhouses and cottages to modern apartments – are enough to win people over, it’s the convenient location that makes Glen Huntly a real standout, especially during Spring Racing season when Caulfield Racecourse is in full swing.
