Rockin’ Rosebery – Why more and more people want to call this uber cool suburb home

Radically transformed in the last decade from a relatively unpopular residential address amid mass industrialisation to one of the coolest places to live in Sydney, Rosebery is a must-see for home-hunters and visitors alike.

It's atmospheric, eclectic, and vibrant with a great sense of community, tons of local facilities and aesthetically pleasing streetscapes populated with heritage homes and architecturally attractive residential developments. Its central position offers a lot of flexibility for visiting other popular parts of Sydney, with the CBD, Newtown, Marrickville, Surry Hills, Redfern, Bondi, Tamarama, Coogee and Maroubra all pretty close as is Sydney Airport.



Adding exponentially to Rosebery’s hip factor, The Cannery is an uber cool converted warehouse complex that attracts Sydneysiders from far and wide. It houses the best providores, tastemakers and buzzing brands that Sydney has to offer. The lineup includes dining destinations 5th Earl, Three Ducks, Elf & Taco, Banh Zeo Bar, Da Mario, Zeus Street Greek and Frenchie’s Bistro and Brewery. And for the sweetest treats, you’re spoiled for choice with glorious Gelato Messina, Black Star Pastry and Frenchie’s Bakery and Patisserie.

This is just the start - enjoy The Cannery’s Archie Rose Distilling Co, Drink Hive, Wholefoods House, Deli Republic and Red Spoon House. Take a coffee break at Welcome Dose then shop up a storm in Zimmerman, The Academy Brand and Papinelle. Need a haircut? You’ll look your best after a visit to Dapper Don Barbershop or Jyle Frame Hair. Don’t miss the markets on the first Saturday and Sunday of the month. And just across the road, you’ll find the best designer outlet shopping in Sydney including Zimmerman, Springcourt, Camilla and Marc, Sambag, Sandler and Dunning Avenue.

Local institutions, Lakes Hotel and Rosebery Hotel offer a great place to grab a pint. And professionals make the most of the suburb’s relative closeness to the CBD and the fact that they can purchase a modern designer apartment with outstanding facilities from where to base their busy lives.

With a reputation for being a safe suburb and with loads of family friendly resources, Rosebery is also ideal for young families who are coming to live here in droves. It’s a highly walkable and bikeable suburb as a whole, being largely very flat and easy to navigate and has great childcare centres and activities for the little ones.

Grand European Architecture and Mediterranean Flair Comes to Rosebery!

Tuscany Architecture

The Sydney suburb of Rosebery has had a very interesting history, coloured with Racecourses, WWII army camps, European migrants, tram lines and glorious gardens. In fact, up until the 1990s, garden competitions were held with great pride and Rosebury is still known as ‘The Garden Suburb” to this day.

As one wanders the streets of Rosebery, you cannot fail to notice the elements of Mediterranean architecture of the local houses, inspired by the homelands of the Italian and Greek populations who have lived in and loved this suburb.
