Kingsville

"Melbourne's best kept secret!"

Very affordable, only 8km from the city, close to shops, cafes and transport - an all round great place to live!
Kingsville was established around the 1930's so has a lot of beautiful Victoria weatherboard house in tree-lined streets, with a couple of small parks. Most blocks in Kingsville have a backyard and/or outdoor entertaining area. There are also some very large blocks, particularly on Kingsville Street and Edgar Street, many of which are now being subdivided and redeveloped as townhouses. There are also numerous apartment blocks and you can pick up a one or two bedroom apartment for a steal, so something for everyone really! There is plenty of unrestricted on street parking and Cruickshank Park is close by if you fancy an early morning exercise session or need to walk the dog!
Most importantly, it's walking distance to Yarraville and Seddon villages, Yarraville Station and West Footscray Station, as well as the Yarraville Square supermarket. Petitou cafe on Somerville Road is fabulous and Red Tomato Pizza is also very good!
We bought in Kingsville because it's a nice area but, surprisingly, it remains one of the most affordable inner suburbs in Melbourne! I think it's affordability is attributable to to the fact that it is a relatively unknown suburb. However, with the inner west becoming a popular place for young professionals and families to buy, more and more people will want to live in the 'the pocket in the pocket'!
