About West Pennant Hills

West Pennant Hills is a premium Hills District address, where over 16,000 residents enjoy large homes on generous blocks in a bushland setting. The Metro Northwest hasn't reached here directly, but proximity to Cherrybrook and Hills Bus services provide reasonable connectivity. The median income reflects genuinely affluent demographics.

Local shopping is limited, with residents travelling to Castle Hill or Cherrybrook for major needs. The attraction is space and natureβ€”properties are substantial, trees are abundant, and the Cumberland State Forest provides bushwalking within the suburb. West Pennant Hills attracts established families seeking premium living without the density of metro-adjacent suburbs. It's Hills District prestige with genuine privacy.

West Pennant Hills falls under postcode 2125 and is governed by The Hills Shire Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Castle Hill electorate.
