"Family friendly & good sized blocks"
Pros
- Bletchley Park and older sections of the suburb have generous sized blocks which are less common in suburbs similar ages
- Beautifully styled parks, playgrounds and lakes for the family to enjoy
- quiet streets within the suburbs
- multicultural neighbourhood
- popular primary schools and abundance of day care centres
- Timber and Tribeca Cafes offer great quality coffee and food
- Surrounded by local shopping centres and new Southern river shops
- Mansion style properties and large land positively affect median sale value
Cons
- some of the newer estate south of southern river road are much smaller
blocks, less established currently but zoned within the same suburb, possibly lowering overall property value in future
- about 1/4 of properties don’t upkeep their gardens and are overgrown with dried weeds & lots of rubbish floating around (possibly due to the nearby developments)
- council aren’t proactive in upkeep (but do respond relatively quickly to Snap Send Solve reports)
- not a lot of “foodie” restaurant choices in the area

"Great place to start a family"
This suburb is very family friendly. Homes are on large blocks & kids love running around in the open spaces and parks and there is a real sense of community.
