Box Hill Melbourne

We are soon to move to Melbourne with a new company and the office is located in Box Hill. Initially they will provide accomadation for around 6 weeks after that we need to look for a rental property for which they have allowed us A$500 per week.

I have looked at the various online train maps as we want to live outside the city in a property with a large garden. Two area's which seem obvious are Belgrave and Lilydale due to being commutable.

Does anyone have info on what we can get for A$500p.w. and what these areas are like. Or if there are surrounding area's just as suitable.

We hope to be there mid february, plus i want to be at the Grand Prix

Happy Australia day to you all

Cheers

Paul & Joo :D

Your $500 per week will go quite a long way in Box Hill, Belgrave or Lilydale as they are not central. You can expect to find a decent 4 bed home with all the zips and buttons for that. It takes about 1 hour by train to the CBD and similar by car, allowing for rush hour congestion. These areas are all quite leafy with a more undulating relief than some other places. You may want to check out some of the rental properties at www.realestate.com.au

Krista,

Thanks for the information. I have looked at the website you suggested and it looks as though we will be okay. Also looked at the properties for sale and it seems you get so much more for you money.

Once again, thanks.

:D Paul & Joo

Hi Paul and Joo.
I could easily live in either Lilydale or Belgrave, I also like Monbulk. You will be able to get a lovely house with a budget of $500 per week
