St Peters

Glebe Point Road runs on coffee, secondhand books and Saturday markets, then spills down to a harbour foreshore walk. Bohemian to its bones and very glad to see your dog.

Inner-west industrial-edged near Marrickville, with parks and grit close by. Practical, walkable and good for a quick lap.

Converted wharves, water on three sides and Pirrama Park's waterfront lawns right on the harbour. City-close living with room to stretch the legs.

A leafy harbour peninsula of sandstone heritage and waterfront reserves. Quiet, scenic and made for a slow foreshore stroll.

Darling Harbour-close and city-dense, with Wentworth Park's green just over the road. Urban, studenty and handy for a quick lap between the high-rises.

A quiet, leafy inner-west pocket of village calm and easy streets. Walkable, low-key and easy with a dog.

Wrapped around Sydney's grandest parkland — off-leash lawns, shady avenues and open green for days. The city's best backyard for a dog.

Inner-city grit turned good. Indie cafes, Redfern Park's open green and a crowd that walks its dogs proudly. Close to everything, easy on four legs.

Quiet and leafy with local parks and an easy suburban pace. Down-to-earth and good for a no-fuss daily walk.

Green Square-close and freshly built, with parks and city access nearby. Practical, walkable and good for a quick lap.
