Northbridge

"Proud to call Northbridge home"

We have recently moved to northbridge and absolutely love it! We have no regrets buying here. It's a peaceful, beautiful leafy suburb which is even more special given its close proximity to the city, chatswood, neutral bay etc. Going out in the city is a breeze - We catch a cab or sometimes a bus straight into the city to catch up with friends. Its always great to go out for a fun night in the city, but appreciate coming home to a peaceful home.
On the weekends we love going for a short drive to Balmoral beach or do a quick walk to Northbridge baths.
After moving from Cammeray, there doesnt seem to be the same variety of cafes and restaurants. There are some existing cafes and we expect there will be more places opening up as more young people and families move to the suburb. In the meantime, if we get bored with the northbridge cafes, it's only a short drive 5 min to cammeray, neutral bay if we feel like eating out for brekkie. But we did the same when we lived at cammeray - some weekends you just feel like eating somewhere new/ different.
Best of all I love the Northbridge community spirit. People here are so friendly. We've found the older generation to be particularly helpful and willing to introduce themselves which makes Northbridge feel like home not just a suburb.
When you speak with locals around Northbridge most have been here for years, if not decades. I can now understand why :)

Northbridge is a family oriented suburb surrounded by good public and private schools. We have Northbridge Public, St Philip Neri and also Shore. Young families are making the move to Northbridge because of its close proximity to the City and also great schools. Feel free to ask any more questions about Northbridge. David

Hi David. What about non private schools, not everyone should send their kids to private as it certainly doesnt guarantee university entry. Do you know much about cammergal high school?
