Just a short distance from a golf course, this pet-friendly apartment lets you experience it all. Melbourne Zoo is an easy 13-minute walk away, so you can leave your car at the property, which offers onsite parking, or jump in your vehicle to make short work of the 5-minute drive to Melbourne Central. Check out other neighborhoods and see more of Melbourne by hopping on a metro at either Jewell Station, a short 5-minute walk away, or Royal Park Station, 12 minutes away.
