Did you know?

Sanctuary Lakes Club is located in the Point Cook area of Melbourne, approximately 20 km from the CBD. The development is situated on the site of the former Cheetham Salt Works where a large scale industrial production of salt supplied Melbourne and Victoria for nearly 100 years. The facility was closed in the late 1980s by the Cheetham Company, leaving the site significantly altered from its natural state and making redevelopment options possible.

Published ranking
