May 28, 2024

 

 

OVERVIEW:

Maylands isn’t your average Perth suburb. It’s a vibrant tapestry woven with creativity, history, and a touch of that special something. Want to live somewhere with character, charm, and a killer cafe scene? Then Maylands might just be your perfect match.

 

Creative Spirit Flows Freely:

Maylands hums with artistic energy. Take a stroll down Whatley Crescent and marvel at ever-evolving street murals by renowned Australian artists. Catch a live jazz performance by the illustrious WA Youth Jazz Orchestra (WAYJO), or witness the graceful artistry of the West Australian Ballet, one of Australia’s oldest ballet companies.

 

Foodie Paradise:

From artisanal sourdough at The Woodfired Baker, a local legend that lovingly restored a 1920s oven, to mouthwatering pizzas at Rossonero in the heart of Lyric Lane, your taste buds will be on a never-ending adventure. Don’t miss Smoults Larder, a treasure trove for foodies, or sip on a cuppa and savor Eurasian cuisine at Chapels on Whatley, housed in a charming century-old building.

 

Hunt for Vintage Gems:

Maylands is a haven for vintage lovers. Dive into the treasure trove at Vintage Emporium, where you’ll find furniture, clothing, and accessories whispering stories of the past. Or, for a touch of bohemian flair, explore the homewares and gifts at Firefly Gifts.

 

Find Your Tribe:

Maylands is a melting pot of friendly faces. Strike up a conversation over a craft beer at Seasonal Brewing Co. or lose yourself in the underground music scene at Lyric’s Bar. For a quirky retail experience, don’t miss Stop Being Boring, a treasure trove curated by a local who isn’t afraid to embrace the unique.

 

Live Like a Local:

Getting around Maylands is a breeze. The train whisks you to Perth CBD in just 8 minutes, while buses, cycling paths, and even a walkable heritage trail connect you to everything you need.
