Like the sound of Fremantle but looks abit pricey for us. Any views on Canning Vale, Munster, Bull Creek, Leeming, Success? Any where between Fremantle & Rockingham basically! Leigh :) hello, We want to live near Freo too - have watched as house prices have rocketed out of our budget in the last few years..... :( .We are looking at Palmyra, Willageee (ex-state housing suburb but lots of redevelopment clse to Freo, solid houses with jarrah floors ripe for renovation) and Hilton (also an ex-state housing suburb but very close to Freo - you could definitely cycle into Freo on a weekend with the kids for example) and Hamilton Hill. There is also the odd property in Beaconsfield or White Gum Valley that comes up. Melville and Bicton also sometimes have houses under $500K but would also be a renovation project. My brother lives in Canning Vale. He likes it, but we find it is far too "new" for us. A good fish and chip shop though :cool: . Problem is you have to drive to the shops, although the little shoppong mall there has a Wollies and Big W and would be fine for day-to-day shopping needs, you'd still have to drive though. There are also a few restaurnants on Nicholson Road - I've been to the imaginatively named Nicholsons and quite liked it - there is a newish pub just opened up Dec 2004 but we didn't go there on our last trip to Perth.

Re: Perth Info please
Does anyone have any thoughts on heading inland from Perth?
While we love the beach we were thinking that maybe we should look to live somewhere more 'in the country'. We were also thinking that we might be able to afford a house with a bit more land that way (although that may be wishful thinking!) We are expecting to need to be able to commute into the city for work so we don't want to really be any more than about 45 minutes from CBD. Thanks Tiggs |

We plan to move at the end of May as we have just sold our house in the UK and as of the 31st May we are homeless. Many thanks.
