Meadow Springs

Lifestyle & dining

Life in Meadow Springs tends to revolve around the local golf course, the parks that thread through the suburb, and easy trips into Mandurah for anything more. Mandurah's café strips, waterfront restaurants and the Mandurah Ocean Marina are only a short drive away, giving residents access to a much bigger dining and entertainment scene than the suburb itself offers. Locally, it's a quieter, family-first atmosphere — the kind of place where weekends are spent at the park or the beach rather than out on the town.

The nearby coastal suburbs of Silver Sands and Madora Bay add to the lifestyle appeal, with swimming beaches and coastal walking tracks within easy reach for those wanting sand between their toes without living directly on the coast.

Shopping

For day-to-day shopping, residents typically head into Mandurah, which anchors the region's retail offering with its town centre, specialty stores and the Mandurah Forum shopping centre. Meadow Springs itself is largely residential, so most bigger shopping trips mean a short drive to Mandurah or nearby San Remo, both of which are well positioned relative to the suburb's boundaries.

Getting around

Meadow Springs benefits from its location just off the Kwinana Freeway extension, which makes the run up to Perth considerably easier than it once was for commuters, while Mandurah's train station provides a rail link into the city for those who'd rather not drive the full distance. Locally, the suburb is easy to navigate by car, with good connections to Mandurah, San Remo and the coastal strip through Silver Sands and Madora Bay.

Schools & families

Families are well served locally by Meadow Springs Primary School and Oakwood Primary School, both within the suburb, making it a practical choice for households with younger children. The median age of 38 reflects a community skewed toward established families and professionals rather than students or retirees, and the mix of parks, sporting facilities and nearby beaches gives kids plenty of room to grow up outdoors.

Housing & architecture

Houses dominate the Meadow Springs market, making up 95% of current listings, with land, apartments and townhouses each accounting for only a sliver of what's on offer. This is very much a suburb of standalone homes on suburban blocks, many built from the 1990s onward as the area developed around its golf course, and there's little in the way of medium-density or unit stock for buyers wanting an alternative.

The property market

The median house price in Meadow Springs currently sits at $814,000, following growth of 11.4% recently — a strong result that reflects the broader momentum in the Mandurah and Peel property markets as buyers priced out of Perth look further afield. Renters can expect to pay a median of $670 a week, a figure that speaks to solid demand from tenants wanting the suburb's family-friendly setting and proximity to the coast.

With houses making up almost the entire supply of listings, buyers should expect competition concentrated squarely in the detached-home segment. For those comparing options, neighbouring Silver Sands, San Remo and Madora Bay offer a similar coastal-adjacent lifestyle, while Mandurah itself provides more density and services for buyers wanting to trade space for convenience.
