Queens Park & Centennial Park Suburb Profile
Built on what was originally deemed swamp land, Living in Queens Park and Centennial Park offers highly coveted neighbourhoods that border beautiful, lush, and historic gardens. With an abundance of pristine multi-use outdoor spaces, these areas are ideal locations for those who love a healthy and active lifestyle. Whether your passion is cycling, running, team sports, or horse riding, the parks have the facilities you need. They also host the annual Moonlight Cinema, concerts, and running festivals, and there are dedicated playgrounds for children and places for your four-legged friends.
When it comes to location, Queens Park and Centennial Park win, hands down. These two neighbourhoods are moments away from upmarket shopping at Paddington, Woollahra, and Bondi Junction. Very close to three of Sydney’s most famous beaches—Bondi, Tamarama, and Bronte—and an easy commute to Sydney’s CBD and vibrant inner-city neighbourhoods.
Although Queens Park and Centennial Park have their own sprinkling of cafés and eateries, locals love to wander into neighbouring Waverley and Bondi Junction to grab a bite and a caffeine fix. The Entertainment Quarter in Moore Park is also close at hand with weekly produce markets, cinemas, restaurants, bars, and retail shops, as well as a live performance, sports, and events venue.
Loved for their convenience to the city and easy access to sprawling parklands, Living in Queens Park and Centennial Park ticks a lot of boxes when it comes to liveability.
