Bexley

Family-friendly Bexley strikes the perfect balance, thanks in part to its prime location. There is so much on hand – sun-kissed parklands and waterways, prominent medical facilities, sprawling shopping complexes and numerous schools. Throw beautiful homes, some of the area’s best eateries and access to a plethora of public transport into the mix, and you will see why Bexley has remained on everyone’s radar.

Running through the middle of Bexley is Forest Road, a major arterial road turned local shopping strip with some of the best (and affordable) multicultural dishes in the region. Forest Road more than caters to everyday amenities, but for a greater variety, Hurstville, Kogarah and Rockdale are just down the road. Away from the main hub, the streets are lined with beautiful federation cottages, complete with wrap around balconies, some thoughtfully renovated while others have made way for modern abodes and low-density apartments. 

When it comes to public transport, Bexley wins hands down. Sitting south of Sydney in the St George region, Bexley is only moments (four minutes to be exact) from Sydney’s Domestic and International airport. It sits between two major train lines – the East Hills and Illawarra Lines, which means, locals are within easy walking distance to over five train stations and have quick access to the major bus interchange at Hurstville.

Seemingly made for families, Bexley caters well to their growing needs with plenty of public and private schools to select from. Parks are in abundance, and the beaches that line Botany Bay and the coves of Georges River are only moments away, as is St Georges Hospital and St Georges Private Hospital in neighbouring Kogarah. Convenient living with all the perks of a city and suburban lifestyle, Bexley is a suburb that keeps on giving.
