Rooms for rent in Thornbury

Thornbury is Northcote's northern neighbour and beneficiary — same High Street spine, same 86 tram, friendlier rents. The Croxton Bandroom and Thornbury Theatre keep live music walking-distance, and Welcome to Thornbury's food-truck yard is the default "let's just go somewhere" answer. The housing stock is generous: solid brick houses on deep blocks, which makes for share houses with real backyards and veggie-patch ambition. It draws people priced one suburb north — musicians, teachers, social workers — who find they prefer it. St Georges Road's bike path runs straight to the city; the Merri Creek is the western border.
