Kermit Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Hey guys, We arrived in sunny Perth on Friday and are loving the sunshine and friendliness of the place. We are staying in a short term holiday let for 4 weeks in Secret Harbour which we love....split level property with Ocean views (if you squint!) ... My husband works overseas returning for 4 weeks in every 8 so our focus on areas to live depends on my job.....I got offered a position in Melville yesterday and was super excited until we started to look at the properties to rent, they all have limited outside space.....we don't want acres but we have two large dogs and I love having an outside area with grass and trees to chill in, we arnt even fussed if it doesn't have a pool....our budget can stretch to £1,000 a week but even with that we are struggling.,I'm also happy to commute at least 30mins we don't need to be near schools. Has anyone else found this? In time we will want to buy but I can't bring myself to settle on a small concrete square with a patch of grass where your neighbours are in touching distance....please someone tell me I'm not on my own in thinking this way?

Nic964 Posted February 11, 2015 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 Try the older estates would be my guess. Your budget will allow many locations. Try Freemantle, there's plenty of bigger plots there. We rented in Medina, and finally brought up the road in Kwinana. Our rental plot was 600m2 and our purchased house has nearwer 900m2. Like you we like the bigger plots, we've got 6 large trees on our plot - plenty of shade / wildlife. Hope that helps Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kermit Posted February 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 Thanks Nick, that's really good to know...we took a look at a few properties around the city beach area and love the location...beautiful dog walking beaches and the gardens seem a little bigger. The search continues.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
