To walk the stretch of St Marys’ Queen Street only takes ten minutes – yet within that ten minutes, you’ll find a lively retail centre infused with a distinctly international flavour. Stroll through tree-lined Lang Park to St Marys Village Shopping Centre, which is home to 44 stores including Woolworths, BWS and Target.

Centrally located on St Marys’ main thoroughfare, Marigold is a short walk or drive to your heart’s every desire. An express train from St Marys Station reaches Central in 47 minutes, while the future North South Rail Link will connect you to the new Western Sydney Airport within a half-hour.

Of course, one of the best things about life in Western Sydney are the open green spaces. St Marys is surrounded by pockets of parklands for every kind of outdoor activity such as Dunheved Golf Club, plus water parks at Ripples Leisure Centre, Wet’n’Wild Sydney, and Penrith Whitewater Stadium for cooling off during those steamy summer days.
