Overview

Summer Hill sits just 7 km west of Sydney’s CBD and has a distinct “village” feel defined by its heritage‑rich streetscapes. More than a hundred properties are heritage‑listed, and the mix of Federation‑era homes with medium‑density apartment blocks around the railway station creates a balanced housing stock. A compact shopping precinct anchored by a town square offers cafés, restaurants and independent shops, while nearby reserves such as John Paton Reserve and Cadigal Reserve add green space for recreation. The suburb’s 2021 census recorded 7,288 residents, with 63 % living in flats or apartments, 20 % in separate houses and the remainder in townhouses or terraces.
