Mount Penang

Mount Penang NSW 2250

Gardens, heritage and open-air events at the gateway to the Coast, and the region's most unexpected address.

Life at Mount Penang.

Mount Penang is unlike anywhere else on the Coast, a heritage parklands and events precinct beside Kariong that’s steadily evolving into one of the region’s most interesting emerging addresses. At its heart are the Mount Penang Parklands and Gardens: landscaped grounds built on a heritage site, a calendar of festivals, markets and weddings, and open green space that gives the precinct a parkland setting few suburbs can claim. A regional sporting and recreation focus and a growing cluster of business and lifestyle uses sit alongside it. For buyers, the appeal is position and potential, the gateway location at the top of the M1, the everyday amenity of neighbouring Kariong, and the bushland of Brisbane Water National Park all around. It’s an address to watch as new homes and lifestyle development take shape. The market figures below are for surrounding Kariong (2250), as the precinct itself has no established residential sales market yet.
