Bendigo Bendigo is located some 150 kilometres to the North West of Melbourne and is Victoria’s 3rd largest regional city behind Geelong and Ballarat. It is serviced by hourly passenger trains to the states capital and also a dual lane Freeway. The population of Bendigo is currently estimated at 120,000 with forward estimates showing a population of some 156,000 by 2036, making the region one of the fastest growing areas nationally and a property ‘hot spot’. Qantas runs daily flights to and from Sydney, with plans and costs complete to add further services to places like Adelaide in the not too distant future. Continued talk of a fast rail link to Melbourne will further unlock growth opportunities in the region, particularly for the commuter market.
Bendigo also enjoys one of Australia’s most renowned Arts Precincts, which is located close to the headquarters of the ASX top 100 listed Bendigo & Adelaide Bank. Other key drivers of the local economy are the new Hospital precinct, which recently had an almost $1 billion facelift, the La Trobe University Campus, the Fosterville Mine and government services.

Longlea Just 13 kilometres east of Bendigo’s CBD, Longlea is a rural suburb of Bendigo and is composed almost entirely of family homes on ‘acreage’, small farms, horse enthusiasts and residents who like having the city at their fingertips whilst still enjoying the beauty, space and freedom of rural living. Primarily a combination of farmland and bushland, Longlea offers the unique perspective of much of the surrounding land being zoned Rural or Low-density Residential, ensuring that residents enjoy the best of both worlds when it comes to lifestyle and convenience.
