Surburb overview

Macquarie Park is witnessing an unprecedented expansion, supported by its government’s vision to make it the fourth-largest central business district in the country and an influx of foreign money. Awash with investments from Chinese property developers with a big appetite for commercial and mixed-use properties, Macquarie Park has sold out several units in its upcoming developments, while its old reserves and apartment buildings are swept off the market for redevelopments.

Though largely composed of people from younger generations, Macquarie Park’s demographics will become even more diversified as it attracts retirees and families who wish to live near Sydney’s CBD. Some mature buyers have purchased units in Macquarie Park to rent them out prior to their retirement. Meanwhile, families are drawn to Macquarie Park’s focus on balancing out its cityscape with relaxing walking and cycling paths, and communal areas.

Commercial and residential real estate profile

Macquarie Park has a large shopping centre, various choices of accommodations, entertainment hubs, indoor and outdoor sports facilities, parks, and food and beverage outlets. Its hospital is located inside Macquarie University.

Majority of the existing real estate in Macquarie Park is made up of apartment blocks where students of Macquarie University, professionals working in the CBD and locals take up residence. New apartment and condominium complexes have been constructed in recent years, which remedied the lack of housing in the area. The instalment of a new railway station in 2009 paved the way for such developments.
