The house is at Crestwood Heights? Hi I had to google Molindinar as I'd never heard of it. I found this information: This area is mostly residential and has been built in the past 10 to 13 years. A corner of the suburb supports light industrial and manufacturing industries. [h=3]Residential[/h]The area is a mix of new and older housing estates. Crestwood Heights is a newer estate in the area. The proximity to facilities and services makes it a family friendly area with the opportunity still available to buy a three-bedroom home for a reasonable price. Land is still available.

THORPES Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Hi My husband house shared on Crestwood. It looks a really nice estate. At the top there is Crestwood Plaza which as a Super IGA supermarket, coffee shop, hairdressers, Noodles box and a few other shops. The schools are a bit far away so you would need to drive. Its not to far from Ashmore where there are banks, chemist etc... Jill x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozellis Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Hello Lorraine, Good to hear from you, i have taken a while to replly as my account crashed (previously 1143ellis). When you arrive get in touch and we can meet, were you are gonna live is just ten mins from me, the area yiou are moving to looks fine and apparantly I have been told by people who have lived here a long time it is fine. If there is a way of privately givng information, like mobile number can you tell me as I am not sure, I will then give you it or just arrange to meet somewhere for coffee. Have you got children, or will you be working? I do not work. Hope to hear from you again. Angie.:biggrin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The house is at Crestwood Heights? Why Molendinar particularly, I've driven through a few times and it seems OK but plenty of other places to look which may be better placed for the coast and/or things to do?

rainyc Posted October 3, 2012 Author Share Posted October 3, 2012 why molendinar particularly, i've driven through a few times and it seems ok but plenty of other places to look which may be better placed for the coast and/or things to do? a nice house came up there, but we didnt get it anyway, think they wanted hubby already working which is impossble with being in adelaide still and even with a letter from prospective employer it was a no. Oh well its obviously wasnt meant to be. We now are going back to plan a and staying in a hotel for 2 weeks and will be viewing heaps in 2 weeks time lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozziepom Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 We now are going back to plan a and staying in a hotel for 2 weeks and will be viewing heaps in 2 weeks time lol Thats a better plan I think, lots of areas to explore and better doing it in person. For a hotel I can reccomend the Meriton in Southport, we spent 6 weeks there when looking for our place and have been back a few times too.
