Re: The Melbourne thread

No we live in The Basin, right on the edge of the Dandenong Ranges and 45 mins from the city. It is semi-rural, but much smaller than Berwick. We like that as we know so many people in the village...

I'm not working for the local development board, honestly :lol: It really is just a wonderful place to live (especially with young kids). Just trying to break up the rush of the Brits to Berwick...

Re: The Melbourne thread

Re: The Melbourne thread

I was surprised how many commute from Mount Evelyn - we got caught in the traffic on our way to Amelia's school concert. It maybe 36km out, but there are some cheap properties there with decent...

Hi Tracey

We actually spent our first 5 months here around Chelsea. Bear in mind, it's only a couple of kms nearer the city than Ferntree etc. I liked it - beautiful beach - but didn't really...

Re: The Melbourne thread

It is a great spot - a real hidden gem. Being in such an interesting village community has made settling very easy.

Good to hear the fire station is well-equipped - let's hope we don't need to...

Re: The Melbourne thread
