"First Time Buyers Dream"
The street is wide beautiful, surrounded by trees, and I look forward to getting home from work every day.
It is not as dynamic as say living in Brunswick East, or Fitzroy, but we have made a choice that we would like to start a family, and the quietness and privacy.
We love our backyard and having a BBQ with freinds over the weekend.
Not too faraway from Blue Dish for a great coffee and a meal, or Southland for a bit of shopping and a movie night out.
It has many parks and it is such a joy to go fro a walk or a ride and not be scared you will be attacked. We have had no robberies, Yet when I lived in Brunswick East, we robbed three times in less than 3 years.
I would feel safe leaving my front door unlocked or opened for air in this neighbourhood...and not having to triple check that all the traps for anti -theft are in place. This street is peaceful and calming. Wonderfull!
Though the commission flats are near-by, and this is a No No in some people's books, let me tell you, they are very nice people too, just trying to live their life or have a normal childhood....there is no evidence or links of violence in our neighbourhood, we have not had once the police pull over for an incident in the 10 years I have lived here.
