Bogan Avenue, Baulkham Hills, NSW 2153

Bogan Avenue (yes really) is an attractive street in Baulkham Hills. It’s very leafy and quiet and runs between Roxborough Park Road and Rutland Ave. Most of the houses are brick and tile 1970s-1980s, and a few modern additions or renovations. The houses are a decent size.

This is a great family area and there are some terrific facilities nearby. Roxborough Park Rd runs the length of AH Whaling reserve – a large reserve that is used for sporting activities – there are cricket pitches and a huge oval, a playground and picnic benches.

Roxborough Park Rose Garden is also situated here. It’s huge, and breathtakingly beautiful with dozens of different rose varieties. There’s a pretty rotunda here also.

You can walk through the reserve to Waves Fitness and Aquatic Centre. This great swim centre has a 50metre pool, learn to swim pool, and toddler’s pool. There’s a crèche, and grassy areas and a café. Waves also has a well-equipped gym.

The Hill’s Private Hospital is fairly close by on Windsor Rd. There are city express buses, shops and schools in the area as well.

Bogan Avenue is not just for bogans (I couldn’t resist), but a great family street – with reasonable property prices.
