Spotswood
Widely regarded as the best kept secret of Melbourne’s inner-west, the quaint inner-city suburb of Spotswood delivers a surprising fusion of village charm and exceptional proximity to the CBD. Nestled between bustling Yarraville and Williamstown yet without the price tag of either suburb, it is only 7km south-west (or ten minutes) of Melbourne’s CBD and enjoys a lovely bayside position with views of the city skyline from the Gem Pier, water on all sides and a country feel.
It is the ideal place for young families with children with its community-focused atmosphere and a choice of parks, playgrounds and good schools, but still has plenty of pull for a younger demographic with trendy cafes and bars. The public transport is great, and the Hudson Road shopping strip has everything you could possibly need, plus it is just minutes from Yarraville Village and Williamstown Beach and a short walk to Kingsville Vernon Street shops.
The housing in this cosy town is varied, there is a gorgeous array of period homes on large-sized blocks as well as terraces, townhouses and units – in short, something for everyone from first home buyers to investors, to upsizers and downsizers.
Bursting with warmth, character and ease, Spotswood is in many ways the perfect suburb, so add it to your list today.
