The Inner West
Generating a constant buzz of an active lifestyle packed with excitement on every corner is Melbourne’s inner western suburbs of Yarraville and Footscray,
New to the party of the Inner West is Kingsville, a tiny suburb nestled harmoniously between West Footscray and Yarraville, filled with tree lined streets and strong sense of local community and Seddon, formerly a semi-industrial suburb, it is now a highly sought after address littered with quaint shopping strips and popular coffee houses.
From eclectic ethnic foods and popular watering-holes to heritage listed vintage cinemas and fresh produce markets the Inner West really is a picturesque location out to satisfy every individual.
And if all of this didn’t already having you waiting in the wings, just across the scenic Maribrynong River is renowned Flemington Racecourse and the Melbourne Showgrounds, adding to the universal hype of residing in these suburbs and really emphasising the point that a picture paints a thousand words.
