Newington

"One of the best suburbs in Sydney"

Newington is by far one of the best suburbs in Sydney. It has so much open space and parks. It is a small pocket suburb in the Olympic Park which is always maintained to a high standard.

The best part of Newington is the convenience of location. It is geographically the centre of Sydney so which every direction you go you are relatively close. If you drive to the city it is about 30 minutes and no tolls. There is no train station but you are very close to major stations via bus if public transport is your thing. There is also the ferry into the city at the end of hill rd which is a great alternative route to the city.

Newington has a village atmosphere with the local shops with more and more restaurants opening. Its great for kids with the parks and Blaxland Riverside Park nearby which is such a massive new kids park with every playground ride imaginable.

If you like events you have all the major sporting events and concerts at your doorstep and don't have to worry about parking as you can walk there.

If you like your fitness the olympic park has some of the finest facilities and there is miles and miles of tracks for cycling or walking around nature.


In short Newington is pretty hard to beat overall as a suburb in sydney. I have lived here for the last 4 years as a owner/resident and don't plan on moving out as it is such a great place to raise a family.
