Yarraville, VIC 3013

Yarraville is a vibrant inner-west suburb of Melbourne known for its charming village atmosphere and heritage architecture. The Sun Theatre and local cafes give it a lively, artsy vibe that appeals to creatives and young families. Public transport access is excellent, with a train station right in the heart of the suburb. Parks and green spaces like Yarraville Gardens add a touch of tranquility. While housing prices have risen, it remains a sought-after spot for its community feel and cultural richness.

My parents migrated to Australia back in 1960. they chose Yarraville to buy their first home. It reminded them of the small italian village back home. Growing up in the area, I always found that Neighbours and local shop owners looked out for you. It wasn't uncommon for my parents to send me to the local deli and pick up some deli produce and a bag of freshly grounded coffee. The purchase was always paid the next time my mother did the shopping. Nothing much has changed. People are very trusting here and working in the village we all know each other.
The restaurants are really first class and The Sun Theatre keeps the village alive at night.
Where else can you grab a drink in a funky wine bar, have a world class meal and watch a movie in the grand old Artdeco cinema and then to top it off either walk home or catch the train.
Yarraville has attracted young families and professional couples, its so close to the CBD, only a 12 minute car ride or 5 stops on the train.

Amazing Yarraville great coffee, lunches with choices a plenty from a simple sandwich, Italian, Mexican, Grilled, old style fish and chips, healthy juices and salads, the list just continues. I work at Nicholas Scott Real Estate and I'm biased, so come see for yourself and enjoy the life style. Don't forget to book a movie with our own Sun Theatre an Icon. Feel free to stay for a drink at one of the incredible bars or pubs. #loveinnerwest

I work at Nicholas Scott Real Estate and obviously love the inner west, Yarraville has an unbelievable community, incredible village precinct with great Cafes, restaurants pubs. Its so close to the Melbourne CBD, public transport, bike paths, parks, and with the completion of the western distributor, Yarraville and the immediate inner west will became a place to be! Much more to say but just come and visit. By the way its still cheap Real estate compared to any other inner city suburb.

There is a lot of great and fun things you can do in yarraville but the main one for me was Rocco’s deloitte have been going there for 45 years and i am still going there to this day

l have lived in Yarraville on & off for the last 25-30 years and the best 2 things about Yarraville are; 15minutes CBD City & Melbourne renowned live entertainment options & Nightlife and 15minutes to "bush" - have you ever driven to and from anywhere over eastward or even North / South these days and all you could see were endless red taillights & no back street short-cuts anywhere to be seen, classic "suburbia", Yarraville is NOT. Secondly, it suits any age group or "type" and, don't get me wrong Yarraville has definitely had its periods where there were dominating "types"... Like the celebration of "choice to love whom ever you wish" when everyone claims the renovations began in earnest. Renovating must be FUN with no kids and plenty of disposable cash, similar to teenage cashflow and frivolity l imagine?? Then came other family types which brings the friendly park atmosphere to the area. And l have recently been heard to comment, that the companion dog seems to be the latest "must have" accessory in Yarraville because everyone here has a dog, you must have a well socialized one or you will be very embarrassed by multiple doggie meet-and-greets you encounter on any outing in this here village. Best of all, it suits anyone at EVERY age and is currently a very balanced environment. Oh, and l lived on top of a shop in Anderson street back in the late 90's when my partner owned a picture framing shop down near the dry cleaners. No one gets the train noise worse than down that alley of a wind tunnel, so l am sure hearing traffic (which you get everyywheree) is probable the worse thing anyone can come up with the criticise the place - plus one year was in Top 10 suburbs in the world and one of the 6 years IN A ROW that Melbourne was voted best place IN THE WORLD to live!!!!!! Please, can anyone top that? I think not............. I heart Yarraville!!!

Located to the west of the CBD, Yarraville is the perfect place for families, pets and children alike. A bustling village centre lined with charming shops and cafes surrounds the easily accessible train station. The outer streets are filled with gorgeous heritage houses, blooming flowers and green trees.
Honourable mentions go to the Sun Theatre, a beautiful art deco cinema with countless charming little theatres to choose from and the Cornershop, the local cafe with a lovely community and great selection of food and drinks.

Overall a beautiful place to live.

Have been here for a few months now. What an amazing place to live. There are beautiful houses lived in by lovely people with a sense of community. Lots of shops in a central nearby strip provide everything one needs on foot. There is a clean and beautiful train station, and even this station is an architectural stunner with red brickwork and a picket fence. There are many parks and the place just has a wonderful atmosphere.

- close to city
- stunning period homes
- lush green parks everywhere
- really nice

I love Yarraville, having lived here a long time...very beautiful natural village with many shops, things to do...friendly people.
