Furnished Townhousesin Victoria Park.

“Perth's densest eating strip, across the causeway from the CBD.”

Victoria Park sits immediately south-east of the Perth CBD across the Causeway, and Albany Highway through its centre carries what is widely regarded as the most concentrated run of restaurants in Perth — a long, unglamorous strip that covers Vietnamese, Thai, Italian, Indian and a steady supply of cafes over a couple of kilometres. The suburb itself is a mix of post-war housing, walk-up apartments and newer infill, and has historically offered better value than the western suburbs at a similar distance from the city. Curtin University sits a short bus ride south, and Optus Stadium is across the river at Burswood. Buses along Albany Highway reach the CBD in around 10 minutes, and the Armadale and Thornlie lines run through nearby stations. Medium-term tenants here are often Curtin staff and postgraduate students, contractors working in the city or at the stadium precinct, and people who want inner-city access without inner-city rates.
