About Kilsyth
Kilsyth is an outer-eastern suburb 34 kilometres from Melbourne's CBD, positioned at the base of the Dandenong Ranges in the Yarra Ranges municipality. While lacking a train station, buses connect to Mooroolbark and Croydon. The suburb offers a gateway to the ranges with established residential areas.
Life here balances suburban living with ranges access—bushwalking, gardens, and the Puffing Billy railway are nearby while local shopping provides daily convenience. The community is predominantly family-oriented with an older demographic. Kilsyth attracts families and retirees seeking affordable outer-eastern living with nature on the doorstep.
Kilsyth falls under postcode 3137 and is governed by Maroondah Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Monbulk (Eastern Victoria) electorate.
