Coral Avenue

"Extremely convenient location!!"

Schools, shops, hospitals, you've got it! I lived here for most of my childhood life. Its been extremely convenient, being just a stone through away from Footscray North Primary School but also close to Summerhill Plaza shops. Whenever a shop closes, another one just re opens. Access to public transport was great, you have buses that can take you to Highpoint, Footscray or even Sunshine.

In time the street had really deteriorated. The homes mainly period style homes, many werent really maintained. If I were to purchase one down this street, Id look out for things such as large trees attacking plumbing and and consider things such as restumping and replastering.
Many homes down the street have been burgled, ours being one of them not to mention our neighbours. The area seems to attract a lot of junkies!!

During the day the street has always been relatively safe for children to play on as there usually arent many cars at all. The street is practically dead at new years. One side of the street was usually belonging to older residents and the opposite the younger generation.

A very multicultural street indeed, just like the suburb itself.

I would never consider living here again (if I had a choice) however its not that far from the city (only ten mins drive!!), not to far from Highpoint shopping centre, hospital was only 2 streets away. Theres a gym on Rosamond rd and a pool next door to it also.
Not a bad place to raise a family as its convenient to everything, not too many parks around at all though. House prices have jumped immensely in this street, what you could purchase for 50K in the eighties would now be worth at least $350,000 or more. Great resale value if you can afford to get into the market but be prepared for a lot of maintenance. Ideal for someone who is a jack of all trades as they really are high maintenance.

"Lots of parks!! Overall a great location"

This street is located not too far from 3 local parks so very handy if you have children! just a stone throw away.
Its on a bit of an incline but not overly, can get a little busy in peak hour but nothing major.
Very handy to schools in Bemersyde drive, close to IGA supermarket, not too far from Eden rise plaza (cnr Oshea and Clyde rds) and the hospital on Kangan rd is extremely handy.
Freeway acces is very convenient! Generally a quiet street with a friendly atmosphere.
There is a bus route that goes along the street but Ive yet to use it. Fairly new homes all less than ten years I imagine.
