Neighbourhood

Picturesque and leafy, one of Melbourne's most upmarket suburbs just south-east of the city. Armadale’s convenient and attractive location makes it a popular choice with all transport options and close to the Melbourne city, Bayside and all the trendy parts of Melbourne.   But it’s also a very established suburb and you’ll find many long-time locals living here too, either as a family or as empty nesters.  You’ll find Armadale just 7kms south-east of the city, sitting between the equally prestigious suburbs of Toorak and Malvern. High Street is an undulating strip of cafes, boutiques, galleries and rug stores, while Glenferrie Road is a little more casual. Off the main roads you’ll find lush green residential streets, beautiful houses and highly sought-after private schools.  Public transport is on the doorstep with train, bus and trams.  Just a short train ride to the city or take the tram to see the sights of the city, St Kilda beach or nearby Chapel street, Prahran.

Kathryn's home in the leafy suburb of Armadale is absolutely wonderful. The first day we walked to the high street for coffee (maybe a 3-4 minute walk). We walked over the train station ( where you can get a train to the CBD in minutes) and through a beautiful 19th century shopping arcade lined with bistro tables and lovely shops. I said, "this feels like Paris.” We stopped a block away at a cafe for breakfast. Sitting there eating on a sidewalk table Scott said, “This reminds me of my old neighborhood in San Francisco.” The local shops were amazing. Everything from high end local fashion to ethnic restaurants. If you aren’t inclined to explore an excellent coffee shop is 50m from Kathryn’s front door.. This is a long way of saying that her neighborhood is a treat if you don't know this already. Her home is lovely, and peaceful with beautiful art, a chefs kitchen and comfortable beds. We had a car but you would not need one to access Melbourne as there is a Train line and a tram line nearby. We wished we had more time to explore Melbobut the great ocean road was calling so we hope to return one day. I’m sorry we couldn’t meet Kathryn, but perhaps we can when she visits us. She welcomed us with local wine and farm fresh eggs that we had for breakfast. You will be very fortunate if you have the opportunity to stay in this lovely home and enjoy Melbourne.

Kathryn's home in Armadale is FABULOUS! Everything is luxurious! We love the combination of traditional and contemporary styles, and especially love her art pieces! Kathryn was excellent at communication, including helping us find the closest HERTZ rental for a one day trip to the Yarra Valley for wines. This home is very close to the train station, so you can easily get on the train and get into downtown Melbourne.... but honestly, there's so much you can walk to in Armadale, you may not even need to go into the bigger city! Definitely recommend this home if you're coming to the Melbourne area.... you won't regret it!
