Wallan, VIC 3756

Lets be honest, its not a great place to live. Nothing here apart from new builds and soulless roads to nowhere.

Kilmore, Heathcote Junction, Broadford, Wandong, even Whittlesea all have more.

Also, how long until Hidden Valley tries to become a separate place?

On the positive side, its close to Melbourne and a train station nobody can walk to.

The town lacks any real character. It is effectively just a suburb of Melbourne now.

Also, how long until Hidden Valley becomes its own town?

Broadford and Heathcote Junction are far more characterful and liveable areas.

Wallan is OK. Safe and with a good pub. That’s about it. A bit boring and stale if thought of as a town. OK if viewed as a suburb of Melbourne.

Wallan is a mix of old and new builds. Not the prettiest of towns, with Heathcote Junction, Kilmore and Broadford being more attractive towns. However, if you want a suburban life on a decent-sized block, Wallan could be for you.

Green, clean and easy access to schools, supermarkets, Transport, parks etc.

Wallan is a great country town away from city rush yet not faraway from the city. If you like country life style and still need commute to work in the city every day then this is it.

A great community.
Ideal for those who enjoy regional Victoria but, work in the CBD. Be spoilt with day trip choices to King Lake, Whittlesea, Kilmore, Heathcoote, Woodend, Lancefield and many other places to enjoy visiting and spend time at say a farmer's market or two.

There are many schools to choose from in there area and development continues to grow to meet the future needs of the community.

Cafes and shopping is suitable for weekly needs and there are plenty of shopping centres within a 30minute drive, with more to come closer (Donnybrook road etc.)

There are also many wineries and even small producers of Honey, Cider and Cheese very close by.

Historical groups and community groups are actively working hard to ensure the community is stronger than ever.

Public transport is very strong for such a small suburb population and signs of strong proactive community leadership. Three busses service Wallan and the train is a very efficient way to travel too and from the CBD. Cost is the same as metro rates!

Train to CBD under an hour (35 minutes on the weekend)
3 bus services
Plenty of cafes and dining options
Very diverse range of house and land option rural spaces to townhouses
Coles, Aldi and Woolies available
Only 10 minutes away from Kilmore
25 mins for Whittlesea
30 minutes from inner ring road
35-40 mins from airport
15 minutes from Donnybrook (Merrifield outer city development)
Multiple Golf Clubs close by (Hidden Valley, Kilmore, Mandalay, Donnybrook)

Moved here about 3 years ago and it is a great little town for a number of reasons. Very friendly community feel, fresh air, little traffic in town itself, fab market every month, lots of local sports and community groups, affordable housing, close to country areas yet only a short drive down Hume toward urban shopping such as the new Craigieburn Central complex and Epping Plaza. Central streets can be a bit less desirable, mainly just a few local kids, noise etc but away from the inner roads there is plenty of space and quiet to be found. Easy drive to areas such as Hanging Rock and Woodend etc which are lovely. VLine service direct to Melbourne from Wallan station. Good choice of state, Catholic and Private schools if you include the town of Kilmore, a ten minute drive north. Many residents commute at least 30 minutes upwards for employment.

Great time to invest for the future in Wallan

Nice and quiet, people are friendly, I love this place

This a great place for families to live in. Very quiet.
