"Safe neighborhood with great cafes and restaurants"

My family’s been living in Sullivan Cres for many years. It’s safe, peaceful & quiet. I’ve never heard a party, hoons or loud music.

Wanniassa has fast reliable internet & mobile connectivity.

I have two children who attend Wanniassa Hills Primary & they absolutely love it. It’s a great school.

Erindale shopping precinct has everything. Woolworths, gyms, library, buzzing cafes & restaurants.

Erindale medical center is fantastic. Dr Vaka & Dr Dilipan at are caring & knowledgeable

"Family Friendly"

I moved to Wanniassa in 2017 after relocating from Sydney.

Wanniassa is amazing. It’s a quiet neighborhood which is very important to me as a shift worker. Over the past 5 yrs I haven’t heard a single party.

There’s a great little restaurant area down at Erindale Shops. Coles and Woolworths are situationed within the suburb and are an easy walk. The coffee shops are A++.

Westfields Woden and South Point Shopping Centre are within a 10 min drive. Any location within Canberra is 20 min’s away.

We are surrounded by bush walking tracks and bike paths.

The people here are friendly and I couldn’t ask for better neighbors. Both my wife and I have never felt unsafe in Wanniassa and find there is not much crime in the area or graffiti.

Wanniassa High School is rated extremely well and my kids love attending. The teachers genuinely care about the kids. It really is a the perfect school.

"Wanniassa going upmarket."

Increasingly central to a lot of retail and entertainment locales -- less than 10 minutes to Tuggeranong, Woden, Mawson, and both Erindale Centre and Wanniassa Shops are 2 minutes from anybody. Erindale features a swag of new dining options, decent coffee, a new fishmonger (2011) and sushi place (2011). Wanniassa has a good range of options for schooling, good access to most of the major thoroughfares North with the advantage that the internal road layout doesn't allow for shortcuts so it really is local traffic only. Access South is good with the Monaro a stone's throw over the hill. People are generally friendly and community-centric type events (e.g. school fairs) get good turn outs.

Great for

  • Nicely quiet -- just a little bit of hoonish circle work on the weekend!
  • Good nearby shopping, cinema, pools, parks.
  • Great cycling for the kids.

Not great for

  • Public transport -- but that's hopeless across the whole of Canberra.
  • Somewhat labyrinth street layout.
  • Maintenance of the public parks could be better. Benign neglect in some places.
