Essendon is a popular north-west suburb known for its mix of heritage homes, modern living and strong transport links to the city. It offers a vibrant community atmosphere with a balance of residential charm and urban convenience.
The suburb features a variety of homes, including Californian bungalows, Art Deco residences and contemporary developments. Many homes retain original timber windows, making them ideal for retrofit double glazing. Key landmarks include Windy Hill, Queens Park and Essendon DFO.
