Six years ago, I considered buying in Monbulk but decided it was too far out. After all, the train line ends in Belgrave! Three years ago, discovered the perfect block of land in Monbulk and, after having lived in Belgrave for a few years, Monbulk didn't seem THAT much further.

Most people here are really friendly, with the odd exception. You can always get a carpark right out the front of Safeway (except the day before Christmas) and there's a few choices for take-away (two pizza shops, Chinese and charcoal chicken) and four bakeries.

It's not far to Knox, Eastland or Fountain Gate (about 20 to 30 min).

Monbulk wouldn't be a good choice of suburb if you don't have a car ... the buses are infrequent and don't run very late in the evening.
