Palmgrove Rd, Bilgola, NSW 2107

The actual physical area of Palmgrove Road is a little tricky. It’s not what you’d call a through-route and it does wind back on itself. It starts steeply off Plateau Road and it is narrow and heavily treed. There are some magnificent views to be had here over Avalon Beach and the ocean.

There are also walking tracks down through Palmgrove Reserve that come out closer to Avalon – but still not close enough to equate to an easy stroll to the beach.

The houses here are predominantly larger two or three story older properties – some of which have wonderful sea views. Many of the homes have been renovated to some degree – some such, extravagantly.

It’s a great location – but given the predominantly east (to south-east) location and the heavy foliage, this is not a street that would receive much light – in winter especially. The facilities are good nearby with all the shops and restaurants Avalon can offer – but walking to anything would be difficult on a daily basis.

Beautiful leafy and private views, but accessibility is not so easy. Buses pass by on Plateau Rd but they are only local or peak express… otherwise buses need to be caught from the Bends roundabout or Avalon village itself.
