Surburb overview

Bordering the suburbs of Burwood on the east and Ashfield on the west, the affluent suburb of Croydon isn’t usually on the itinerary of travellers and local motorists. However, things are looking up for the once “drive by” suburb as prime real estate and multi-family properties crop up in the area, providing variety to the Federation or California bungalow-style homes that still comprise majority of its residential real estate.

Conveniently located within 11 kilometres of Sydney’s central business district, Croydon ranks high on real estate authorities’ list of Sydney suburbs for its wide access to jobs, schools, retail centres and public facilities. Croydon also boasts of leisure and entertainment spots, such as the Valley Retail Park and Croydon Cinemas, that have something to offer to residents, both young and old.
