Suburb profile
Sunny Corner is a residential smaller community in Bathurst Regional with a familiar suburban feel. The community is self-contained in the best sense. Local life comes first, with the region opening up beyond. A mature community gives the area a calm, settled social fabric, with families and grandchildren still a visible part of community life.
Local parks and tree cover add a welcome outdoor dimension to suburban life. Reasonable public transport access helps with commuting and getting around locally. Homes offer solid value for the lifestyle on offer.
Tree-lined streets and established homes set the tone, with little pressure to reinvent the neighbourhood.
