It's not often people know where Macquarie Links is and we find ourselves often saying 'do you play golf? - it's the estate around the golf course' and then the Ah-Hah moment kicks in.

We bought a home in the Estate two years ago and we are a young professional couple with no children. The Estate appealed to us firstly for value for money in comparison to the surrounding new housing estates along with the benefits of living in a gated community. The landscaping is beautiful, the pool and tennis court are a bonus and the security service is fantastic.

The location is very convenient being right near both M5 and M7. We can get to the airport in about 30 minutes on the weekend and to the City in 45 minutes. The Ingleburn train station is nearby with great access to the City and plentiful parking. The Ingleburn town centre has a great cafe, Woolworths, hairdresser, Thai, Indian, Chinese etc. And soon there will be a nice new shopping village with Coles and new shops.

The Golf Clubhouse is also within the Estate that offer a decent coffee along with breakfast or lunch. Very convenient.

The only issues we have had is with Strata. Yes you have to pay Strata dues which is well worth it given the standard of the community. But there are some pretty pedantic by-laws which most residents ignore (rightly so) however you still get the pesty letter in the mail to remind you are in breach. Simple things like rubbish bins out of sight, no trailers in your driveway etc. So if you aren't keen on sticking to the rules - this place probably isn't for you.

We really enjoy living here and look forward to raising our family in this great Estate.
