Been to Kalamunda and loved it!!
went up there today on a soccer presentation and absolutely loved it. Had a great village about it, almost sort of English village, I do appreciate that it was only a day trip but we saw big old fashioned blocks like we live in (over half an acre) and not a colourbond fence in sight.
Anyone heading for Perth should defintitely give the hills a look. Only took me 30 minutes flat from Wellard :rolleyes: What's a speed limit :confused: |

There is a house for sale across from us up for $1.3million (way overpriced IMO, I would pay no more than $1million. It's been on sale for 3 months) yet the house next door, a slightly run down but liveable 3x1 on 1/2 acre went for $385k in February. A mixed bag really.
Most are 4-750k plus on 2-5 acres plus and millions get you the 10-20plus. We got in the middle - not many chances to do so - got an acre (3x2) for $330k. You need to get lucky really. If a house doesn't come up in your price bracket you'd have to go to Colorbond city. |

The thing to remember is although the sun is baking at high noon and high above us, the trees help in the morning and late afternoon to keep us cool. We also dont get much westerly coastal breeze but dont forget the easterlies which are gale force from early morning tilll midday..... The people living in the foothill suburbs get the brunt of it as the (easterlies) come over the hill and turn into gully winds which are more ferocious. :eek: |
Re: Been to Kalamunda and loved it!!
Fraid it will be too hot for me!!
