Keith and Vicki,
Nice to hear from you and good luck with the move to oz, and you're idea that living around altona north and the surrounding areas is spot on, especially with you having a wee nipper, like i may have said before it is a great location with all that you need within easy reach, where as moving around in the western suburbs you will find that heading farther north on the west side(particularly around the Ballarat road and above) you will soon see that it is definitley more urbanized with a more inner city style of living, i.e heavier traffic, less parklands or quiet places.
Now wih regards to child friendly side of things, well it is a little tricky to comment as we don't have kids but I can say that there is a kindergaten, 2 primary schools, 2 or 3 parks, and a brand new leisure centre complex all within 10 minutes walk, and have also noticed that there are mother/father and baby groups advertised in the local papers, but if you need to find out anymore try the Hobson Bay City Council website for all the in's and out's of local services.
Right now this house is being rented out at $350 p.w which may seem to be a little pricey but this is melboune at the moment all the rentals are at a premium because of the slow movement of house sales, but in comparison to alot of eastern and northern suburbs turn out it's the going rate, and also being a brand new house we feel it's a resonable price for the area. So you can contact our agents at Barry Plant Real Estate, Yarraville office, for more details if you so wish, speak to or e-mail for the attention of Daniella just mention the Kyle road property and our names and hopefully she can offer any more info for you, aswell as e-mail you some photos of the house.
Anyway I hope this has been of some help to you and don't hesitate to ask for any more queries, all the best for now, Chris and Kate
