Greenwich

"A slice of harbour side paradise"

We've lived in Greenwich for about a year and stumbled upon it quite fortuitously. It's so much better than I could've imagined. We had been looking at all the suburbs around it but since it is a secret gem we hadn't even considered it. The community spirit here is incredible. There's Greenwich Games every 4 years, a completely self organised Olympics style event where you pick a team and compete for them. Lots of dogs in Greenwich. Great schools!! The cutest IGA in the world where they remember you by name. Wonderful fresh fish BYO restaurant. Beautiful views of the harbour and city. Very green. The 'refinery' some people speak of is a refuelling station which is connected to a refinery further down the harbour at Clyde. It's not noisy despite there being ships there all the time. I think I've heard aships horn horn once which was quite charming actually. People come from all over to fish here. Incredibly close to the city via ferry, train station walking distance and quite central to Lane Cove shops (5mins), Crows Nest (5mins), Neutral Bay (10 mins), Chatswood (15mins). The hospital could not be closer and there's even a private hospital in Greenwich. Greenwich Baths is a cute harbour beach complete with sun loungers and a cafe. No bar or pub unfortunately but really you can just pop on a ferry to Circular Quay in 15mins so who cares! So beautiful that we are planning to never leave!!!
