What Mount Royal is known for: Green suburb

Suburb profile

Mount Royal is a hillside smaller community in Singleton, with elevated streets and a greener, quieter pace. The community is self-contained in the best sense. Local life comes first, with the region opening up beyond. Ridge-top pockets and tree cover give the area a cooler, greener hillside feel.

An older demographic makes it especially popular with retirees, with multiple generations sharing the same neighbourhood. Homes here are sought-after, with many people drawn to the lifestyle the area offers.

Tree-lined streets and established homes set the tone, with little pressure to reinvent the neighbourhood.
