Located just 15km from the city and nestled between Kogarah and Hurstville, Carlton is a suburb with strong multicultural roots and ongoing growth.
The area features a mix of freestanding Federation homes, brick bungalows, low-rise apartment blocks, and newer developments close to the train line. Property here remains affordable compared to nearby areas while still offering excellent amenity and connectivity.

The Princes Highway runs through the suburb, with buses servicing multiple routes. Commercial areas are clustered near the station, with shops, grocers, eateries, and medical services close at hand.
Schools in and around the area include Carlton South Public School and St George Girls High School. Netstrata Jubilee Stadium (home to the Dragons NRL team) adds local character, while parks and sports fields provide leisure options for kids and families.
