About Canterbury

Canterbury is an established residential suburb 9 km east of Melbourne CBD, postcode 3126. The suburb is best known for Maling Road, a village style shopping strip with independent cafes, a bookshop, a post office, and specialty retailers that have operated there for several decades. Canterbury Road runs through the middle of the suburb from east to west, while Burke Road forms the western boundary. The area is primarily residential, with a concentration of period homes and elm lined streets. Several well regarded schools are within or near the suburb, including Canterbury Girls Secondary College and Camberwell Grammar School just to the north west. Canterbury Station sits on the Alamein and Ringwood rail lines, putting the CBD within around 25 minutes by train. Trams run along Canterbury Road and Riversdale Road, connecting to the inner east network. Canterbury Road also provides a direct road link west toward Kew and east into Box Hill. Taxis in Canterbury are most commonly used for airport transfers, early morning travel before rail services begin, and trips that do not align well with the available train or tram routes. Silver Taxi provides airport transfers from Canterbury to Melbourne Airport, with fares starting from $85 to $93. Bookings and enquiries can be made at any time by calling 0412 456 588.
