About Wentworth Point
Wentworth Point is a waterfront suburb located 13 kilometres west of the Sydney central business district, situated on a peninsula on the Parramatta River. Part of the City of Parramatta local government area and designated by the postcode 2127, it is defined by its proximity to Homebush Bay and Rhodes. The demographic profile is characterised by a high density of multi-storey apartment living, attracting a multicultural population of young professionals and families. Its strategic location offers connectivity through the Wentworth Point Ferry Wharf and the nearby Rhodes railway station, supplemented by the Bennelong Bridge, which provides pedestrian and vehicular access to the surrounding suburbs.
Local life in Wentworth Point is centered around high-density residential lifestyle amenities, including waterfront parklands such as the Wentworth Common and the Parramatta River foreshore trails. The suburb features the Marina Square shopping precinct, which provides essential retail and dining services to local residents. Historically, the area was once an industrial hub, notably serving as the location for the HMAS *Waterhen* naval base during the mid-20th century. Following the remediation of industrial sites, the area underwent a significant urban renewal program beginning in the early 2000s, transforming from former maritime and industrial land into the contemporary residential community observed today.
