About Connells Point
Welcome to Connells Point
Connells Point is a compact, water-fringed suburb in Sydney's south, about 19 kilometres from the CBD in the St George district. Bordered by Kyle Bay, Blakehurst, South Hurstville, Hurstville Grove and Oatley, it occupies a leafy peninsula between the Georges River and Poulton Park, and much of its appeal lies in that setting — quiet streets that end at the water, and a strong sense of separation from the busier commercial strips nearby.
With a population of just 2,884 and a median age of 43, it's a settled, family-oriented pocket rather than a churn-and-turnover suburb. It tends to suit buyers who want space, water proximity and a house they can stay in for the long haul, rather than those chasing apartment living or a busy café scene on their doorstep.
Housing & architecture
Connells Point is overwhelmingly a house suburb, and the current listing mix bears that out — 89% houses, against just 7% townhouses and 4% vacant land. Architecturally it's a mix of older brick and fibro homes from the mid-twentieth century alongside substantial rebuilds and architect-designed contemporary houses, many taking advantage of the peninsula's water views and northerly aspects toward the Georges River.
Blocks here tend to be larger than in the surrounding suburbs, and it's common to see knockdown-rebuilds sitting next to original 1950s and 1960s homes. Waterfront and water-view properties command a significant premium, while inland streets closer to South Hurstville and Hurstville Grove offer a slightly more accessible entry point into the suburb.
The property market
The median house price in Connells Point sits at $2.26 million, reflecting its status as one of the more expensive suburbs in the St George area, underpinned by its river frontage and low housing supply. Recent growth has been flat at 0.0%, suggesting the market has plateaued after earlier gains rather than pulling back sharply — consistent with a tightly held suburb where turnover is naturally low.
For renters, the median asking rent of $1,300 a week points to a market aimed squarely at families and professionals wanting a house rather than a unit. With land making up only a small share of current listings, buyers looking for a knockdown or new-build opportunity will find limited stock, and most competition centres on established homes.
Getting around
Connells Point doesn't have its own train station, so residents typically drive or bus to services at Oatley or Mortdale on the Illawarra line for services into the city and Wollongong direction. The Princes Highway is within easy reach via Blakehurst and South Hurstville, giving reasonably direct access north to Sydney Airport and the CBD, or south towards the Sutherland Shire.
Bus routes connect Connells Point to Hurstville, one of the district's major transport and shopping hubs, which also has direct rail access. For those who boat, the Georges River frontage means some residents make use of private moorings and jetties as an alternative way to get around the waterway itself.
Parks & recreation
The suburb's centrepiece is Poulton Park, a large riverside reserve with sporting fields, playgrounds and picnic areas that doubles as the community's main recreational space and a popular spot for river views and walking. The Georges River itself is a major drawcard, offering fishing, kayaking and boating for those who live close to its edge.
Nearby Kyle Bay and Oatley add further waterside reserves and baths to the mix, extending the network of parks available to Connells Point residents without needing to leave the immediate area.
Schools & families
With a median age of 43 and a strongly house-dominated market, Connells Point attracts established families and older residents rather than a young rental crowd. Families typically look to nearby schools in Oatley, South Hurstville and Hurstville Grove, with the broader Hurstville area also offering a range of public and private options within a short drive.
The suburb's quiet, low-through-traffic streets and generous blocks make it a popular choice for families wanting room for kids to grow into, while still being within the catchment of the well-established St George school network.
