An employment precinct in preparation, Moorabool Shire

Lifestyle

Gorges, orchards and an unhurried pace.

Living beside the Parwan precinct means living in and around Bacchus Marsh: a historic township with a real main street, framed by two state significant gorges and some of Victoria's most productive farmland.

Everyday life

What is already here.

This is an established regional district, so the amenity is not something to wait for.

Parks and open space

Parwan Creek and the surrounding waterways run through the district, with open rural country in every direction and river flats around Bacchus Marsh.

Shopping and services

Bacchus Marsh Village and Main Street shops

Recreation

Lerderderg Gorge, Werribee Gorge State Park, Bacchus Marsh Avenue of Honour

Family first district

Bacchus Marsh has a median age of 39 and an average household size of 2.3 people, an established community rather than a brand new one.

A centre to come

As the employment precinct is planned, local services and business amenity will be considered through the precinct planning process.

Country close to the city

Melbourne is about 50.05 km east, so weekends can be spent in the gorges or in the city without moving house.
