It can be difficult to find a quiet family-friendly suburb that's not too far out of the city without totally blowing your budget. Things such as schools, great transport links, fantastic shops and enough open space for kids to enjoy can all be hard to come by in one particular area.
Fortunately, the southern Sydney suburb of Jannali offers all of this and so much more for anyone searching for real estate.
The town of Jannali is home to a high number of families. In fact, data from the 2011 Census identified 50 per cent of all households in the suburb are home to couples with children.
But there's good reason as to why so many families are moving here.
It's convenient
The small suburb of Jannali is approximately 28 kilometres south of Sydney's CBD. This means that it's well out of the way of the hustle and bustle you find in the city, but still very easy to travel to work from.
The M1 is easily accessible for residents and will take you straight into the CBD. Jannali is also home to its own railway station, which makes getting into the city via train simple and easy.
A tight-knit community
One of the first things you'll notice about Jannali is the great community there. The area is home to a number of fantastic community groups to give other residents a helping hand or to participate in activities. From mum's clubs, where you can find play dates for the kids, to care groups for young ones, there's no shortage of support for growing families in Jannali.
The suburb is also home to its own community centre where you'll find regular ongoing classes, such as dance, karate and art classes.
Schools galore
From kindergarten, primary school and all the way through to high school, Jannali has a wide selection of education facilities. What's even better is that they're all right on your own back doorstep.
Jannali Public School is in the centre of the suburb, while Jannali High is not too far away. Nearby suburbs of Como and Oyster Bay also have a great school selection, giving you almost endless options.
Living here, buying here
It doesn't matter if you're a first, second or even third time buyer, professional assistance and advice are always essential. Ray White Jannali has a dedicated and expert team to help you on your home buying journey.
Director Rodney Spink was born and raised in the Sutherland area and knows the region like the back of his hand. After being ranked numerous times in the top ten sellers in the state, Mr Spink achieved the top spot for Selling Principal in the Sydney Metropolitan area at the 2013 Ray White Awards.
But he's not just a great sales agent, he's also a dedicated member of the community. For all his hard work and effort in the Jannali and Sutherland areas, Mr Spink was appointed Justice of the Peace in New South Wales in 2004.
