Lane Cove vs Lane Cove North vs Lane Cove West
Hi Folks,
I have been previously looking to purchase our PPOR (2 bed unit) around Macquarie Park, Galesville area. But now considering the lower north shore area particularly Lane Cove and Lane Cove North for its
closer proximity to CBD and multiple transportation options..
Have done a bit of research. Can someone familiar to these suburbs confirm my understanding of these areas and also probably add if I am missing anything?
Lane Cove North
===============
Pros
-Close proximity to train station ..some of the streets are as close as 700ms to Artamon station
-Close to Chatswood ~ 2km
-Multiple commuting option to city - M1, Victoria Road, via train from Artamon
-Leafy residential outlook
Cons
-Mowbray primary public school - not so good
-Mostly dominated by units & few new apartment block.. not many houses.
Lane Cove
==========
Pros
- Lance Cove primary public school - good
- Lane cove village fruit markets
- Mostly houses
- Leafy residential outlook
Cons
- A bit far ~ 2km to Artamon stations
I also looked Lane Cove West but that I feel that is way too far from the shopping area and train station.
CBD access is only via Victoria Road which gets too much choked during the peak hours..
But has good primary school (Lane Cove West Public School) ..
