STANMORE

It’s almost as if the rest of Sydney has suddenly woken up to the charming streetscapes and genteel mood that are an indelible part of the Stanmore experience. Perched on the city fringe and within walking distance to little Italy, Leichhardt and Newtown, Stanmore was once a sleepy suburb, beloved for decades. But change is definitely in the air. The rise of the inner west brings new cafes, an arts scene and hot new restaurants to the area, and there’s no looking back. Greek, Italian and Vietnamese migrants settled here decades ago, providing the Stanmore of today with a strong population of second and third generation multicultural Australians. In the 1980s, the area became popular with students and young people, thanks to lower rents and proximity to the city and universities. Young professionals and families now make up the next wave of residents, taking advantage of the schools, inner city proximity mixed with the larger blocks and new developments towards Parramatta Road.
