Melton and the suburbs around it

This is home base.

Melton South is established housing: brick veneer, some weatherboard, and rebuilds where the original house has had enough.

Melton West is mostly brick veneer family houses on suburban lots.

Established family housing, a lot of it brick veneer from the years when Melton pushed west.

Brick houses on family lots, many of them ready for a knockdown-rebuild rather than a patch-up.

Houses on larger blocks, sheds, and the occasional tired dwelling that has been added to for thirty years.

Older houses, some acreage outbuildings, and newer streets filling the edges.

Older houses and sheds on larger blocks, plus the new estates pushing through.

Brick and rendered family houses from the estate boom, now old enough that knockdown-rebuilds and extensions-that-should-have-been-knockdowns are showing up.

Established estate housing, much of it two-storey brick.

Family brick homes, part of the same western estate belt as Taylors Hill and Caroline Springs.

Established western-suburb housing, brick and render, close enough to Caroline Springs and to Melton that we run it as local.

The closest proper town outside the Melton suburbs.

A nearby town north of Melton, not part of the City of Melton suburbs, but close enough to run without pretending it is Mildura.
