If you are looking for raging nightlife, loud bands and thriving restaurant scene - this area is not for you. BUT if you have a young or teen family or are DINKS who prefer the quieter life, Cheltenham could be place place for you.

Seventh Ave is well away from main thorough fares- this is great because it means our street is quiet. We are located just up the road from Alberton Oval, so there is football traffic, but other than that - wonderful.

The train to the city is walking distance. If you get the express from Woodvile, you are only a 11 min train ride from the city. You are also only a 10 min drive from the beach (or you can catch a train there too!). There is a great IGA a 10 minute walk away, away well as chemist and post office. West Lakes Shopping Centre and Arndale are also 10 min drives away.

There are public and catholic schools close by. Childcare a 5 min drive away. The QEH is 10 min drive away.We are 10mins from Port Adelaide and once development has been completed, a whole new world of cafes and retail expereinces will be a be available to us (already happening).

The houses in the street a mix of bungalow style and villa style on gernally larish (700 -1000sqm) allotments. There are 2 small unit groups, but they are single story 'courtyard' type and well kept. Whilst there is not a 'canopy' of trees in the street scape, overall it is very pleasant and green.

People in this street care for their homes and there is quite a bit of renovating going on. I might add - good renos! People are condierate of each other in the street and noise levels are generally low. We are a mix of young families/teen families and older residents. A lovely variety.

If you are a keen Port Pwer fan - the club is well and truly within walking distance. Resttaurant/bar facilites available.

I love living here.
