Alexandria Suburb Profile
Living in Alexandria
Warehouse character, park-side living.
Alexandria pairs its industrial past with some of inner Sydney's best green space. Warehouse conversions and townhouses sit alongside new apartments, with Sydney Park's 44 hectares anchoring the southern boundary.
It leases strongly across the board, from one-bed apartments to family townhouses, helped by cafes and employers that make the suburb a destination in its own right.

Life in Alexandria
The everyday things that make tenants want to live here and stay here.
Eat & drink
The Grounds of Alexandria is the famous one, but the Bourke Road and Fountain Street cafes hold their own, and Marrickville's brewery belt is next door.
Green space
Sydney Park brings wetlands, cycling tracks, a skate park and city skyline views; Alexandria Park adds courts and shaded lawns in the suburb's north.
Getting around
Green Square and Mascot stations sit on the airport line, the CBD is a 10 minute cycle and the airport is one of the shortest commutes in Sydney.
The homes
Warehouse conversions, modern townhouses and apartment blocks, with a strong strata investment market.
Renting in Alexandria
Median weekly asking rents in Alexandria currently run at one-bedroom units around $750 a week, two-bedroom units around $950, three-bedroom houses around $1,400 (June 2026 medians).
Demand comes largely from professionals, couples and creatives who want space without leaving the inner city. Well-presented and well-managed properties lease quickly; our portfolio-wide median time to lease is 8 days against an inner Sydney market median of around 19.
