This area is perfect for those seeking an inner-city lifestyle. Coffee-lovers can enjoy a short stroll to the growing choice of popular local cafes, including West 48, Dumbo, and Brother Nancy, while the eateries, shops, supermarket, library and services of nearby Barkly Village meet more practical needs. Towards the city, a few minutes’ drive away, is Footscray’s lively dining precinct, with its colourful selection of bars and restaurants and the convenience of Coles, Kmart, and the Footscray Market. Just four minutes in the other direction are the retail outlets and supermarkets of Central West Shopping Centre, while Whitten Oval, Recwest recreation centre, and a choice of parks and reserves are all within easy walking distance.
Right in the centre of a highly sought-after school zone, this location gives parents a choice of three primary schools: Footscray West Primary School, St John’s Primary School, and Footscray North Primary School are all just 700 metres (or a 10-minute walk) away. Footscray High School’s Barkly campus is a five-minute drive or easy bus ride away.
Only 9.2km from the CBD, the property provides easy access to public transport: catch buses 216 or 220 from nearby Essex and Barkly streets, or walk 10 minutes to West Footscray Station for regular city-bound trains
Ideally situated for a superb inner-city lifestyle, this sort of space is becoming harder and harder to find in West Footscray, so don’t let this chance pass you by!
