Bayswater North is a suburb of Melbourne, Australia, in the state of Victoria. It is in the Local Government Area of the City of Maroondah.
As at the 2001 Census, its population was 7,804 [1]. The suburb has a signifiant industrial area, and many large-scale retail showrooms. It is a main employment area in the region.
Bayswater North shares its postcode of 3153 with Bayswater, and the suburb is often referred to by residents without the 'North' part of the name. Many local businesses also drop this reference in advertising their location (eg two of the larger retailers, Bunnings Warehouse and Anaconda refer to their location simply as 'Bayswater'). The official distinction between the two is that Bayswater North is located in the City of Maroondah, whereas Bayswater is located in the City of Knox.
There is a small local shopping centre, Canterbury Gardens, which is anchored by a Safeway supermarket. Many other facilities are located in Bayswater and other adjacent suburbs in the cities of Knox and Maroondah.
Club Kilsyth, a local landmark, burned down in 2005 and reopened in November 2006. Despite its name, it is located in Bayswater North, however it is very close to the border of Kilsyth. It isn't the only oddly named facility in Bayswater North, either, as Croydon Insportz also falls within the border.
