"Two thumbs up"

A home in Carlingford is a jewel to be had, if you know which home to buy/ rent in the area.

Cant go wrong with a home with the usual: tree-lined street, near station/ transport, school, shops and other convenience. Also nice to be close to a green reserve (privvy) for good recreation option with the dog or the family. Parks and large ovals are also plentiful.

Close to school is great. It will save you from buckling kids in and out of the car.
Wake up, wash your face and off to school gate. Nice to dodge the rush hour traffic and jams. Great for sanity.

Some of the super schools (in no particular order): TARA Girls, James Ruse Agricultural High School, The Kings School, American School, Chatswood West Primary, Murray Farm Primary (Source: http://www.smh.com.au/nsw/my-school-primary-2012)

"Maybe its in the water" - Most of the best schools all seemed to be in Carlingford.. Who knows :0)

Golf Course, Tennis Course, Swimming Pool and Fitness First Gym around the area, as well as good parks for weekend's soccer and playgrounds.

Local piano teachers seems to be on the plenty. Violin and chess done at school.

A good pocket in Carlingford can offer a gentle atmosphere for the whole family.

Parramatta CBD is close-by for work purposes and it is home to many daily businesses which may be convenient for many working people or for some serious shopping purposes.

Westfield North Rocks is next suburb away, home to ALDI and all the other everyday convenience

Macquarie Park is another neighbouring suburb, housing many large and famous businesses being offered there.

Macquarie University is not too distant away

Epping is a neat place next suburb away for a quick getaway with its good train line.

Plenty of churches for church goers too. Hillsong is also not far at all, only few suburbs away across the Hills District.

Carlingford's owns its own train station (better than nothing..)

Carlingford Court and Carlingford Village - home to yummy take aways, asian restaurants, KFC, Maccas, cake shops, florist, Coles, Woolies, Target. Home to good, cheap butchers, oriental and herb and spices shops.

Carlingford Pizza Hut and Dominos Pizza are both local. Love pizza and movie nights!

Carlingford Court is home to good doctors, dentist and pharmacies and x-ray places and other medical attention.

Bunnings Carlingford is here too..

Carlingford piano shop, in case you need to buy one.

So.. if it is local to everyday necessities like: food and good schoolings, good sporting and social venues, shopping centres, large parks and reserves, close to work, close to health and medical attention centres, close to CBD..... What else can one want?

So far so good..

Except the Carlingford train station is a complete joke! Esp when the state govt shelved plans for extending the line.

"Private, Safest, Green, Smart Living, Convenient Pocket in Sydney - What else could one want?"

You got it all right here on this street. Arguably the best most private and most convenient and green street in Sydney!
The smartest schools in Sydney such as Carlingford West (primary school) and JAMES RUSE (Sydney's top no 1 school for many years) and the KINGS school is all a skip and hop away from your doorstep! So get educated while you live! Piano teachers are also everywhere here, all in the walking distance.

Super green and even a waterfall at the Reserve just a skip distance away! Walk your dog, jog, cycle.... the choice is yours.

Walk to station!! My neighbour shops with his bicycle few times a week for a hobby.. Just to show you of the convenient and relax lifestyle being offered.

Arguably the BEST pocket in Carlingford. Central to everything. Carlingford Court even got its own swimming pool and Fitness First Gym and of course Target, Coles, Woolies, Speciality Shops, a great Florist!! and Meat market and Cake shops and many more... like a mini Westfield.
Then theres the Carlingford Village and Pizza Hut and Domino Pizza and all the other Asian need convenience and Restaurants and Cafes and Take aways and Oriental Shops.

Westfield North Rocks is just about ten mins drive..

All so convenient and stress free. Muruba RULES! :)
