“With our children being able to walk to Grammar School, it has been a real life – changer living in Spring Hill. No more daily commute to and from home. After school activities are not an inconvenience as you’re not stuck in traffic. And the kids love not having to wake up at 6am to go to school.” – Spring Hill home owner

“Go for a walk in Victoria Park, a swim at the Spring Hill baths, breakfast at the Spring Hill deli, then jump on the free Spring Hill bus loop to the city.
Do some shopping and browsing, catch up with some friends over lunch, then walk home if it’s not too hot. There’s always the free bus and even Uber’s cheap.” – Spring Hill home owner
