Milford Street, Randwick, NSW 2031

Milford Street is a steep tree lined street, which is both attractive and convenient. It is relatively short, and Our Lady of the Sacred Heart Primary School occupies almost one whole side of it, that fronts on to Avoca Street.

The houses on Milford Street are predominately renovated properties of the bungalow variety and they are situated on small blocks. There are a few two story houses that look to have Georgian or Federation history, but it is not really recognisable any more- to an untrained eye like mine. There are at least two (from memory) apartment buildings on the street, one of which is very large, the other a lot smaller and quieter. The larger of two may actually have its address on an adjacent street.

There are numerous facilities nearby including buses, shops and restaurants on Avoca Street, and Milford Street is very close to Coogee Bay Road, offering a straightforward car or bus trip to the beach. Also very nearby is the Royal Hospital for Women, offering wonderful medical facilities, and the Prince of Wales Medical Research Institute.

The area offers both fairly easy commuting to the city, and easy access to the beaches and nightlife of the Coogee surrounds.

Milford Street itself, and the surrounding area, gets pretty congested with local traffic at school pick up and drop off times.
