Belmont Property Market
& Suburb Profile

Located approximately 100 kilometres southwest of Melbourne, Belmont offers residents a perfect blend of established suburban amenity and access to the Great Ocean Road region.

The suburb is predominantly residential, though it includes a valuable mix of commercial activity along major routes like the Barwon Heads Road, and is framed on one side by the Great Eastern Highway, enhancing regional connectivity.

A major feature of the Belmont lifestyle is its abundant convenience and access to leisure. The area boasts excellent shopping options, centered around the Belmont Forum, which provides terrific local retail and essential services. Beyond shopping, residents enjoy a range of entertainment, including a local theatre complex. The suburb is rich in green spaces, offering beautiful places to walk and cycle along the Barwon River, while Centenary Park provides a clean, attractive space with a playground, perfect for families and birdwatching. While lacking in traditional pubs or a bustling nightlife, the suburb offers nice restaurants and a warm, friendly community atmosphere.

Belmont is highly regarded for its educational choices, catering to children of all ages with a comprehensive selection of public and private institutions. These include Barwon Valley School, Belmont High School, Wangala Primary School (formerly Oberon), Belmont Primary School, Roslyn Primary School, Christian College Geelong - Junior School, and Clairvaux Catholic School. This robust infrastructure, combined with a strong property market featuring mostly three-bedroom houses and a notable percentage of residents in professional occupations, cements Belmont’s position as a highly desirable and well-resourced suburb within the City of Greater Geelong.
