Melford Street is a nice Street with a mild inclination to Canterbury Rd. Although mostly quiet, the street can get busier during peak times as drivers try to cut through traffic from Canterbury Rd. All in all, it is a good street, with some apartments situated there, that's close to Hurlstone Park train station and local shops. Bus are close by and so is a medical facility and the Greek Orthodox church. Dulwich Hill is not too far either for great food and to catch up with friends

Set in a peaceful area and a short stroll to a few parks, ice skating rink, tennis courts and even a child care centre in the same street, Harmony St lives up to its name. Bus stops nearby and Campsie station approx 1km away this is a good street with good neighbours

Without a car it can be a fair distance to the shops however there is bus which can take you to many shopping districts.
It is relatively quite with some thoroughfare traffic cutting through to Liverpool Rd.
The street was built around a Catholic Church, St Anne's Primary, and they have really welcoming and inviting community, kids play group and community involvement activities.
The neighbours are all friendly and welcoming.
There are several parks nearby, the closest one being only a few steps away. Running beside the park is the bike track. The Cooks River bike path can take you all the way to the airport - passing through Croydon Park, Earlwood, Tempe... and the North West side of Strathfield the other direction.

Marcia St is a tightly.held street with a few homes even fewer apartments.
Although normally quiet, the street can get busy with sporting events or meets in the ex Masonic hall (I believe it's no longer a Masonic hall).
It has a few units in the street however the residents have mainly.lived there a long time and know each other well. There is bowling club at the end of the street and an adjoining kids park.. it is a hundred metres or so walk to the train station, buses and cafes. There is some bat activity there at night which can be annoying for some people. All in all a good street for families, professionals and young singles

Ross Street is a nice Street with good neighbours off the busy Canterbury Rd. Inside the home, you don't actually notice the noise thanks mainly to the taller commercial properties on the main road. Land sizes in the street are good and it's within walking distance to public transport such as Hurlstone Park train station and bus stops, local shops and cafes, parks and playgrounds and good schools: Trinity is a short stroll up the hill and St Paul's of the cross further down. Houses in the street are either west or east facing.

Having managed businesses here, I came to see lots of vandalism sprawled along the street (west side of Beames). Entire basements were full graffiti, Windows on shop fronts broken and trolleys left scattered throughout.
The locals are nice though and food really tasty too .
The council needs to clean the place and enforce harsher penalties to discourage the problems. It's short walk to the station, Westfield shopping centre and other public transport.

Having grown up here and still coming to visit family, this is a great pocket in the inner west of Sydney. All our neighbours are mates and open homes to one another. Christmas gatherings with neighbours is common and quiet (towards the south part of the street). Occasionally you can get some idiots who speed there but overall it's great. Parks are a few metres away (from the bottom of the street), Campsie or even Ashfield train stations are the closest to Hay and the same applies to shopping centres (approx 1km away) although Burwood is not far either.
The only issue I can pick on, is the occasional smell from the river (south side) and some traffic on north side due to thoroughfare traffic from George's River Rd.

Having lived here for years, this street is leafy, has beautiful homes in it, holds value really well and relatively quiet - thanks to school's traffic is not permitted to use the street as thoroughfare or parking as an agreement between council, owners and St Pat's.
It is close to shopping villages (Homebush), school (St Patrick's, St Martha's, Santa Sabina, Meriden, Strathfield Girls high, a number of colleges, Marie Bashir school, Australian Catholic University and more.
Very popular area and a great street. Can be considered narrow to some people but I'm used to it

Not many streets can claim to have waterfront homes on either side... this does!
Set in the exclusive enclave in the Shire, the street here is not long, however it is intimate and serene. You will find some amazing homes and others with the opportunity for an architecturally developed home to meet your style and taste.
To use the waterways (Jetties, poles, pontoons etc) you must become a member or shareholder and membership fees as of 01/07/2020 (updated pricing from Sylvania Waterways) will be $6000. Membership fees are paid once only. First years waterfront licence is $4000.
Well worth the price for your own private jettie and the exclusive lifestyle on offer

My builder has chosen this street to invest as there is beautiful leafy side to it, quiet, close to Cronulla yet great in within its own right. Good sense of community with neighbours, holds it's value well (if not raising) and great cafe nearby, Our Father. Great coffees! Lifestyle +

The more time I spend in Sylvania Waters (SW) (including the surrounding suburbs), the more I come to fall in love with it.
Considering what a waterfront home costs along the east coast of Sydney, Sylvania Waters offers true value for money without compromise of lifestyle. Personally, being just outside the massive hustle and bustle of the city is a massive attraction for me, without being too far at the same time.
The only "downfall" is that the is no SW train station, however that just means less congestion and more exclusive lifestyle too. It is compensated with lots of bus stops, ride sharing options and quite streets and plenty of on-street parking.
The water is nearby for a nice stroll - any time of day/night, eateries and cafes are great and Archies Flame Grille at the local SW shopping village is a must, however for more shops, chains and services at Southgate shopping centre is only a stone throws away.
