In cities with big populations and so many estate agents, the sheer amount of choice that is available is often overwhelming and daunting, but filling out the form above can make selling your property much easier, no matter where you are in Melbourne.
Home to the world’s richest horse race
Located approximately 4 kilometres north-west of the city of Melbourne’s central business district, the suburb of Flemington is probably most famous for the Flemington Racecourse, which is home to the Victoria Racing Club and the annual Melbourne Cup horse race, which is currently the world’s richest handicap and the world’s richest 3200-metre horse race.
Flemington was established in 1839 and was named after Flemington Estate in Scotland. Today the suburb has a diverse population, with three kindergartens, three primary schools, one secondary college and a special needs school seeing to the needs of an ever-growing community.
Twelve reserves, parks and ovals provide space to relax, and Flemington’s residents get around by using an established public transport system, which consists of trains, trams and buses.
Facts about Flemington
“The racehorses assemble at the starting barrier
in all the finery of a medieval pageant, the jockeys
in silks like figures from a Tarot pack, the bookies
in leather and tweeds standing beside their boards
each confident that the future has been controlled.”
– Kevin Hart
