About The Vines
Welcome to The Vines
The Vines sits in the Swan Valley, roughly 30 kilometres north-east of the Perth CBD, wrapped around the golf courses and vineyards that gave the estate its name. It's one of the Swan region's more distinctive addresses, built from the late 1980s onward as a master-planned resort community rather than a typical suburban subdivision, and that heritage still shapes how it looks and feels today.
With Belhus, Aveley and Upper Swan as neighbours, The Vines suits buyers after space, greenery and a slower pace without giving up a genuine sense of design and cohesion. It's a place favoured by families and professionals who want a large home on a generous block, golf and vineyards on the doorstep, and the option to be in the city within about half an hour's drive.
Lifestyle & dining
Life in The Vines revolves heavily around The Vines Resort, with its two championship golf courses, clubhouse dining and function facilities forming the social heart of the suburb. Beyond the fairways, residents make the most of being in the Swan Valley, Western Australia's oldest wine region, with cellar doors, boutique breweries and farm-gate produce a short drive away in Upper Swan and further into the Valley proper.
It's a low-key lifestyle rather than a bustling one — dining out generally means a trip into the Valley or towards Midland, and locals tend to be happy with that trade-off given what's on offer closer to home, from lakeside walking paths to the resort's own restaurant and bar.
Getting around
The Vines is a car-oriented suburb, connected to Perth via West Swan Road and the Great Northern Highway, with the drive into the CBD taking around 35 to 40 minutes outside peak times. Public transport is limited compared with inner-city suburbs, so most households rely on private vehicles, though bus services link into the wider Swan network and connect towards Midland and Ellenbrook for train access.
For day-to-day errands, the neighbouring Aveley town centre and Ellenbrook provide closer options, while Midland remains the key regional hub for larger shopping, health and transport needs.
Schools & families
The suburb and its immediate surrounds have grown a solid base of family infrastructure over the past two decades, with Aveley and Ellenbrook offering primary and secondary options within a short drive, and the broader City of Swan investing steadily in schools to keep pace with growth in Belhus and Aveley. A median age of 39 suggests a community with plenty of established families and older couples rather than a heavy skew towards young singles.
Block sizes here tend to be larger than in newer estates nearby, which appeals to families wanting a backyard, side access for a boat or caravan, or simply room to grow into.
Parks & recreation
Recreation in The Vines is defined by its golf courses and open, landscaped grounds, but there are also lakes, reserves and walking trails woven through the estate that give it a distinctly green, low-density feel. The proximity to the Swan Valley means river walks, wineries and rural drives are all close at hand, and Whiteman Park is within reach for bushland trails, heritage attractions and family days out.
For those who play golf or simply enjoy living near manicured fairways and mature trees, few Perth suburbs offer the same outlook from the back verandah.
Housing & architecture
Housing in The Vines is overwhelmingly detached, with houses making up about 95% of current listings against a small proportion of townhouses and apartments or units. Homes here tend to be larger-format, resort-style builds from the 1990s and 2000s, often set on generous blocks with established gardens, reflecting the suburb's origins as a golf and lifestyle estate rather than a standard housing subdivision.
Buyers can expect a mix of single and double-storey homes, many designed to make the most of golf course or lake frontage, alongside a smaller number of newer builds on the estate's fringes.
The property market
The Vines carries a median house price of $1.17 million, placing it well above many surrounding Swan Valley and Ellenbrook-area suburbs, a reflection of its larger blocks, resort setting and relatively low housing density. Recent growth has been modest but positive, with prices up 2.9%, suggesting a market that's steady rather than fast-moving.
Renters face a median asking rent of $895 a week, in keeping with the suburb's premium positioning. With a population of 5,848 and a housing stock still dominated by full-sized houses, The Vines remains a tightly held, low-turnover market that tends to attract buyers specifically drawn to its golf-and-vineyard lifestyle rather than those simply chasing proximity to the city.
