Why Choose Hawksburn?
Hawksburn is a popular residential area just 5 kilometres southeast of Melbourne. This area derived its name from the Hawksburn House (located close to where the railway station was later built).
Hawksburn which is actually not a suburb is not the only one in this area. It shares this “suburb, but not a suburb” status with Oak Park, Regent, and Westgarth. It air kisses Prahan to the south and Toorak to the east, but mostly appears to be South Yarra, with slivers of the others thrown in.
It is easy to see why Hawksburn holds such appeal. Even though busy roads cut through this area, it is similar to an enclave. It also has just about impenetrable and extremely narrow roads sheltered by beautiful elm trees that line the streets.

Hawksburn Lifestyle
Hawksburn is probably better known for the nearby “Hawksburn Village” a small shopping centre strip on Malvern Road and its railway station. Many of the terraces and older homes of South Yarra are situated near the railway station and Cromwell Crescent in the Hawksburn area.
This shopping strip has changed over the years from the “everyday service” retailers to a combination of easy to access kerbside parking and specialist retailers, which is in contrast to crowded Chapel Street in Prahran.
