It's like living in a hamlet but only 15 kms away from the city. I have lived here since 1994 and have never regretted it or the lifestyle. There is the Yarra walking trail, the river, horse riding school... Neighbours are friendly and watch out for each other (without being intrusive). Train station is only a few kms away and also nearby bus routes available. It also falls within the much touted Viewbank Secondary College precinct. The only downside is there isn't a vast array of local cafes and restaurants and, being a family area there is very little nightlife. Although, its only a 2-5 min drive to those in Heidelberg, Lower Plenty, Greensborough, Ivanhoe and Montmorency.
