It’s a very nice street that’s sits so close to a lot of parks, milk bars, and Carlisle St. However after renting here with one toddler we think it’s quite a bad decision. We live in a beautiful Art Deco ground floor flat that faces the street and are very happy with the abode but not too much with the surroundings. People often dump their hard rubbish on the sidewalks especially not in front of their own properties. Neighbours often party until late nights even on weeknights. Often this wake our toddler up which is like every family with young children knows can be a nightmare. Our upstairs neighbours are very noisy, makes terrible sounds above our flat and bangs the big beautiful Art Deco entrance door every time they enter and exit. Young hipsters walking at night singing at the top of their lungs is another nuisance here. We also have a very unlucky next building neighbour who probably runs some sort of hobby or home business repairing classic cars and motorbikes and often wake me babies up around the area with their old noisy cars and Harley bikes. Maybe if you are luckier in a block of flats eg a ground floor at the end of the block not facing the street and neighbouring blocks that are not full of young late night party goers or old hipsters who can never let go of the habit and mindful neighbours, this street might be a great potential for you. But if you are very sensitive to noise and have young families, avoid this street. Oh and parking can be a nightmare, a lot of people with dedicated parking spaces refuse to park on theirs and park on the street instead.
