Luckily for us we bought here during the first stages of development and watched this suburb grow. To our delight it has become the place we have always wished to live in. Close to major roads, Western Highway and Western Ring Road, 4 minute drive to Albion Train Station which is a Zone 1 (takes only 22 minutes by train to the City). You can choose between the Ring Road over the West Gate, Western Highway / Ballarat Road and then through either Sunshine/Footscray or Dynon Roads into the city (4 ways to get into the City by Road and all take max. 45 minutes in bad peak hour traffic conditions - usually 25-30 minutes) This place is a jewel and I hope that the new residents appreciate it and keep it that way. The abundant parks and lakes are just beautiful. We don't have a nightlfe here but with this type of access to anywhere in Melbourne I'd prefer we didn't. The small shopping centre in the middle of the suburb has everything a busy time deprived person can wish for - good eateries as well. The only downside is that we don't have a good private high school in the area - plans existed by were put on the back burner. To have had this sort of educational facility here will be a major plus and would certainly be the icing on the cake.
