Hi you guys
If buying in Butler you would be hard pushed to find a house with a pool as they are all new and unless people have built and put a pool in and are now selling then you will be out of luck. Saying that - not impossible. You would be looking at about $300K with a pool I reckon. Quinns would be easier, again looking at about $280 + with a pool. Merriwa has an old and new part (Seagrove). The prices there are cheaper, you would get what you are requesting for about $250 ish.
Schools - depends if you are private or state. The only option at present for state is Clarkson High School or Mindarie Senior College for the final years.
There are a few private senior schools Peter Moyes/Quinns Baptist/Irene McCormick. A new high school is going to be built in Butler in the next few years. There are various primary schools in all the above areas. All with good and bad points.
Footy teams - There is a scoccer organisation called "the jacks" which play at Quinns Rocks every week or whatever and there are also various clubs at Joondalup which is about 15 mins away.
Hope this helps

DianeOz - change your avatar thingymebob cos you didn't look on the wagon the other night!!!!!!!!!
For house prices have a look at www.reiwa.com.au for those suburbs mentioned. Quinns is nearest the beach, with Brighton & Merriwa the other side of Marmion Ave.
Schools as Diane mentioned although Mindarie senior is only for years 11 & 12, they'd have to go elsewhere for years 8-10. Clarkson is the only High school in the area although children get scholarships elsewhere e.g. Duncraig, Woodvale etc. or can travel to other schools such as Ocean Reef if they get a place. Otherwise it's private schools.

I also noticed that there is a new school being built up there at the mo......not sure as to what ages it is aimed to attract though.
