About Heatherton

Heatherton is a small suburb in Melbourne's south east at postcode 3202, within the City of Kingston. It is one of the smallest suburbs in the Kingston area by residential population, with a significant portion of its land taken up by the Kingston Heath Golf Club and related Sandbelt courses.

The Sandbelt golf precinct in and around Heatherton includes some of Australia's highest rated courses, drawing golfers from across Victoria and interstate. The suburb also has light industrial and commercial uses along its main roads, alongside a small number of residential properties.

Heatherton has no train station. Cheltenham Station to the north on the Frankston line is the nearest rail connection, approximately 3 kilometres away. The suburb borders Moorabbin Airport to the north west, making it one of only a few Melbourne suburbs with two airport options: Moorabbin for general aviation and Tullamarine for commercial flights.

Heatherton is a small industrial and residential suburb in Melbourne’s south east, postcode 3202, within the City of Kingston. It sits between Cheltenham to the north, Moorabbin to the west, and Dingley Village to the south. Much of the suburb is given over to the Sandbelt golf precincts and the Kingston Heath Golf Club, which is one of the most respected courses in Australia. The residential and industrial pockets sit along Kingston Road and the surrounding streets.

Silver Taxi Melbourne covers Heatherton 24 hours a day. Our Clayton base is approximately 12 minutes from the centre of the suburb.
