Couldn't agree more Laura! We bought in the suburb in 2012 and, although we lived close by in Kogarah for a few years prior to that, we hadn't heard much about this little gem of a suburb that was hidden under our noses. A few things we would like to add to your list:
- 3-5 minute drive to M5 motorway
- 20 minute drive to Westfield Eastgardens and Westfield Miranda
- 25 minutes drive to Cronulla beach
- good access to many churches and other places of worship
- good primary and secondary schools (both selective government and private schools)
- Banksia (and its neighbour Arncliffe) was selected by the NSW government as one of 12 "Priority Precincts" which are less than 30 minutes from Sydney CBD. The result is that the state government will be investing funds to develop Banksia so as to provide more jobs, better services, more housing choice, shops, cafes and restaurants. The future is definitely bright for Banksia!
