Beaconsfield

A brand-new harbour precinct with a headland park and foreshore promenade. Waterfront, walkable and made for a city-edge stroll.

Converted wharves, water on three sides and Pirrama Park's waterfront lawns right on the harbour. City-close living with room to stretch the legs.

Glebe Point Road runs on coffee, secondhand books and Saturday markets, then spills down to a harbour foreshore walk. Bohemian to its bones and very glad to see your dog.

Old rail yards turned markets and maker spaces, beside Redfern's buzz. Gritty, creative and walkable, with green pockets close by.

Green Square's high-rise heart, with new parks and wide footpaths threading between the towers. Brand-new, city-close and laid out for a quick loop.

Inner-west edge with Sydney Park's off-leash acres on one side and a craft-brewery strip on the other. Industrial bones, Newtown energy and plenty of green to burn off.

Wide parklands beside Centennial Park, with open green and off-leash space close by. Room to run, right on the city's edge.

Art deco blocks, tree-lined streets and a cafe on every corner. Embarkation Park hands you off-leash time with a harbour backdrop. Dense, glamorous and surprisingly dog-easy.

A harbourside park with marina views and off-leash green, a stroll from the city. Leafy, breezy and easy with a dog.

Inner-city grit turned good. Indie cafes, Redfern Park's open green and a crowd that walks its dogs proudly. Close to everything, easy on four legs.
