Southern River, WA 6110

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

I can tell Southern River is family and child friendly suburbs

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.

Have really been disappointed in Southern River. Had my car stolen twice.. and whilst that could happen everywhere it hasnt happened before.

Southern River is obscured by its more established neighbour, Canning Vale and the more reknown Harrisdale & Piara Waters.
Neighbourhood is friendly and safe. There are numerous parks for outdoor living and food + amenities are stone's throw away.
It's still a fairly young residential suburb with many pockets under planning and development, but certainly one that has the potential to grow nicely if done well.

Live in Bletchley Park and it is an absolutely beautiful place to live. Friendly neighbours, walking trails, lots of nature and fresh air to get you away from the bustle of the city. Homes are of high quality and there are plenty of quality schools around and coming up soon, as well as shops and other amenities.

Southern River is a medium aged suburb with new and old areas, it is very warming and all neighbours here will welcome you in!
Canning vales shops and amenities are just down the road!
Will recommend this place over any suburb!

We just moved to Bletchley Park, it is a nice place to live. Traffic is not an issue for us as we leave for work quite early and traffic to home is not bad.

Great for families- great parks- great for bikes and kids walking to school- pretty on the eye

Beautiful parklands and friendly neighbours. Easy access to shops, petrol stations, gyms, schools, cafes and local restaurants. Enjoy a picnic or BBQ at the park - with use of the free BBQ area. Take a stroll or a jog along the well designed pathways throughout the park. The kids will love the playground and the seating is ideal to take a book to read while the children burn up some energy. There are ducks, frogs and native birds to see and hear, all adding to the appeal of this area.
