Wattletree Health Group provides exceptional home nursing services in Belgrave Heights (postcode 3160), a quiet residential locality in the Dandenong Ranges within the Yarra Ranges Shire, about 40km east of Melbourne’s CBD. Our experienced, AHPRA-registered nurses support clients in Belgrave Heights and neighbouring Belgrave, Selby, Tecoma and Upwey, whether the need is short-term after a hospital stay or ongoing, long-term clinical care.
Belgrave Heights is a small residential locality on the southern slopes of the Dandenong Ranges, adjacent to Belgrave township and sharing in the forested character and community spirit of the upper Ranges communities. The area provides elevated views south across the Casey corridor and enjoys the cool-climate and forested environment typical of the Dandenong Ranges upper slopes, with large-block residential properties set among mountain ash and eucalypt bushland. Belgrave is the southern terminus of both the metropolitan Belgrave rail line — providing direct services to Melbourne’s CBD — and the famous Puffing Billy steam railway, which departs from Belgrave and travels through the Ranges to Gembrook. The Puffing Billy Railway is one of Victoria’s most beloved heritage attractions, carrying over 400,000 passengers annually through some of the most beautiful bush scenery in Victoria. The Dandenong Ranges National Park’s forest walks and the Kokoda Track Memorial Walk are nearby.
