Brunswick West is for living, first and foremost. Instead of the cramped apartments and astronomical housing prices found in the inner city, the tree-lined avenues of this bountiful neighbourhood feature large homes with the gardens to match.

Its rich Mediterranean heritage can be seen everywhere, from the authentic restaurants that line its streets to the olive trees that dot its carefully tended gardens. Neighbours tend to know each other by name and call to each other over morning coffees – the sense of community remains strong.

While nightlife is virtually non-existent, the bright lights of Brunswick/Brunswick East are just around the corner and the city is still within easy reach. In addition, picturesque parks, a cheerful café culture and a surplus of fantastic European produce markets contribute to the area’s amiable character. 

Mastering that all too elusive quality of life, while still being in reach of the action, it’s no wonder Brunswick West is such a popular place to call home.
