Treeby, Western Australia
Treeby is the City of Cockburn’s newest suburb. It is located on the east side of the Kwinana Freeway, close to Cockburn Central. It is a southern suburb of Perth, falling within the City of Cockburn local government area. Treeby is primarily a rural area, originally part of Banjup, but was made a separate suburb in 2016. It is named after early settlers of the area, Joseph and Emma Treeby. In recent years, an area previously mined for sand was developed into a new residential estate called Calleya. Stockland has a large display village called Calleya with terraces, townhomes, house and land packages, and completed land. Stockland has sold over 1,100 house and land packages in Treeby.[2][1] The suburb was created in 2016 from the northern portion of the suburb of Banjup (extending above Armadale Road).[3] There is also a new estate called Kara Estate in the western part of the suburb.
