Ringwood North is a suburb with the lot. We moved here 5 years ago and we love it. Ringwood North is full of peaceful streets and cul de sacs yet is close to all the amenities one could ask for. We have the option of shopping locally at Ringwood North with a great IGA, independent butcher, fruiterer, Doc's wines and liquor, restaurants, bakeries, cafes, a plant nursery, etc. There's plenty of parking and it's never too crowded. Otherwise, Eastland, the Pines, Knox and Doncaster Shoppingtown are within very easy reach. There is a wide range of schools for children to attend and all are well serviced with public transport options. There are plenty of parks and facilities to suit nearly every sporting pursuit. We've lived in Doncaster, Templestowe, Lilydale, Box Hill and Blackburn. Ringwood North beats them all and we're not moving anytime soon.

Lilydale is situated only 45 minutes from Melbourne's CBD via Eastlink or rail. So all the great sporting events, eateries, and shopping in Melbourne are never far away. Lilydale is also the gateway to the Yarra Valley where some of the best wineries and fresh fruits are easily accessible. Lilydale is also home to the Lillydale Lake, one of the most popular recreational parks in Victoria! Whether you enjoy taking the kids to the playground, fishing, walking or just getting fit, the Lillydale Lake provides all the facilities one needs. For cyclists and explorers, there's also the Lilydale to Warburton trail. Best of all is the feeling of space you have in Lilydale. Wide roads, plenty of parking, parks and large home allotments allows us all to enjoy the peace and tranquility of the outer east.
