About Narre Warren South

Narre Warren South is the family heart of Melbourne's outer southeast, a substantial suburb of 31,000 in Casey, located 40 kilometres from the CBD. Westfield Fountain Gate sits adjacent, making it one of Melbourne's best-located suburbs for retail access, while the Cranbourne and Pakenham lines serve nearby stations. The suburb developed primarily in the 1990s-2000s, giving it mature streetscapes and established community.
