Wales Street, Kingsville, VIC 3012

We live at the end of Wales Street towards Geelong road and it is so convenient - close to the train, basic shops (fish and chips), bottle shop and car repairs. All we need is around us within walking distance. If you want coffee, just walk to Seddon or Yarraville. The great thing is, it is not congested with traffic thus is very quiet. It is a very charming place thought at first sight, it may not be as pretty. Neighbours look out for one another and people are so friendly. It is not a pretentious suburb if you know what I mean. If you have a dog, there is a dog park just 15 min walk away. It is not a pretentious neighbourhood. We moved from Sydney and feel that many suburbs in the west are undervalued because it is not as popular as the north and eastern suburbs. Though there are a lot of trucks on Williamstown and Sommerville road, there are many main roads that leads you into the city which is important. Again, it is important to pick a suburb that fits your personality and Kingsville is our choice.

Far enough from the city to be peacefull, but close enough to matter. From South-eastern suburbs and finding it a pain to travel...

Wales St is a great street in Kingsville, we have lived here for some time and fell in love with it because of the friendliness of the neighbors. We take our dog regularly to Cruikshank Park which is a 5 minute walk and she loves a dip in the creek and a good run, most times there are a lot of other dogs to play with. We love that we are so close to the village in Yarraville and attend festivals and events there. Wales St itself is a quiet street with not too much traffic, the houses are on slightly larger blocks than most other houses in Kingsville. Being a shift worker I rarely get disturbed from my sleep due to the fact my neighbors are very considerate and there is really not too much action in the street.
