Food options are varied thanks to a multicultural population – you’ll find Greek delis alongside Indian sweet shops and more noodle houses than you can count. Weekends wouldn’t be complete without a visit to the Preston Market, and in the rare case you don’t find your flavour there, the cheap and cheerful High Street eateries are filled with an array of popular and tasty delights.

There really is something for every taste and budget.

One of Melbourne’s few remaining traditional markets  where fishmongers and butchers bellow the day’s specials, and local shoppers know how to spot a bargain.

This loveable and eclectic hub serves up crackingly good gozleme, falafel and borek from the street food stalls, while PAM Lane showcases the work of local artists and craftspeople and pop ups sell everything from wine to terrariums.

Best of all – this colourful bazaar full of delights for all the senses is an easy stroll from your new abode. 

You’ll be spoilt for choice with an abundance of parkland and trails nearby for that moment of peace, or to keep active and healthy in the outdoors.
