Edmondson Park, NSW 2174

Edmondson Park is a masterplanned, fast-growing suburb roughly 39–41 km south-west of the Sydney CBD in the City of Liverpool, and the first precinct of the NSW Government's South West Priority Growth Area (established 2005) to be planned and built — the suburb was rezoned for development in May 2008. Much of the suburb was formerly the Ingleburn Army Camp, with the land bought from the Department of Defence by NSW land developer Landcom, which masterplanned the 827-hectare release spanning Edmondson Park and adjoining Bardia; the first residential lots were sold in 2012. Growth has been explosive: the 2021 census recorded 12,080 residents, up from just 2,271 in 2016, and the profile skews strongly to young families — the median age is about 31 and the largest age bands are 0–9 (19%) and 30–39 (21%), a pattern typical of new-release estates. The suburb is named for John Hurst Edmondson, the first Australian awarded the Victoria Cross in World War II, who trained at the nearby army camp.

At a Glance

Transport

Edmondson Park railway station, on the South West Rail Link, opened in the suburb on 8 February 2015; it is served by T2 Leppington & Inner West line trains to Central and the City Circle (via Liverpool and Granville) and by T5 Cumberland line services towards Parramatta, Blacktown and Richmond. Transit Systems NSW buses connect the suburb with Narellan, Carnes Hill, Casula, Ingleburn and Liverpool — including routes 859 (Carnes Hill) and 868 (Ingleburn) that stop at the station — and an Interline on-demand bus service links homes within the suburb to the station.

Schools

Edmondson Park Public School — NSW government primary school within the suburb. St Francis Catholic College — K–12 co-educational Catholic college in the suburb. Edmondson Park College — a new school scheduled to open in 2027, and a separate new government high school is planned as the area grows.

Shopping & Amenities

The Ed. Square Town Centre, immediately adjoining Edmondson Park station, is the suburb's main shopping, dining and entertainment precinct — a mixed-use town centre developed in partnership with Frasers Property Australia and anchored by a Coles supermarket, Event Cinemas and iPlay, with the Eat Street laneway of cafes and restaurants plus other shops, services and apartments across the centre. Suburb marketing describes Ed. Square as a '100% walkable urban village' within a $1.5 billion masterplanned community (AreaSearch).

Parks & Outdoors

The masterplanned release was designed around substantial open space — estate marketing for the suburb highlights roughly 150 ha of regional parkland plus about 50 ha of smaller parks made up of playgrounds, playing fields and reserves across Edmondson Park. Part of the former Ingleburn Army Camp site was retained after the camp's 1997 decommissioning as the Ingleburn Military Heritage Precinct, including Mont St Quentin Oval, and the suburb lies on the Cumberland Plain with remnant open woodlands along its drainage lines.

Property Market

The median house price in Edmondson Park was around ~$1.25M–$1.34M: realestate.com.au's past-12-month median for houses is $1,245,000, while local agents tracking August 2026 sales put the freestanding-house median at $1,343,000 (145 house sales, up 5.7% year-on-year) (mid-2026). See our full Sydney property price map for how the suburb compares across the city. Population grew more than five-fold from 2,271 (2016) to 12,080 (2021) as the Landcom release estates filled in, and the buyer profile is overwhelmingly young families from south-west Sydney buying new or near-new houses, townhouses and units near the station and town centre. Estimates of the current house median cluster between roughly $1.25M and $1.35M across trackers, with units around $735,000; the rental market is tight, with the median house rent around $778/week.

New Developments

Edmondson Park is one of Sydney's most active greenfield release areas: Landcom's 827-hectare masterplanned release on former Ingleburn Army Camp land has seen continuous new estates since the first residential lots sold in 2012, with the mixed-use town centre delivered in partnership with Frasers Property Australia. The Ed. Square precinct is described as a $1.5 billion '100% walkable urban village' around the railway station (AreaSearch). Community infrastructure is catching up with the growth: Edmondson Park College is due to open in 2027 and a new government high school is in planning, alongside new public schools as the South West Priority Growth Area builds out.

Jobs & Local Economy

Retail, hospitality, entertainment and local services centred on the Ed. Square town centre — anchored by Coles, Event Cinemas, iPlay and the Eat Street dining laneway — form the main on-site employment base, supplemented by jobs at the suburb's schools and growing community facilities. Many residents commute to employment hubs in Liverpool and the Sydney CBD via the T2/T5 rail services, and construction trades have been a major source of local work through the continuous estate releases.
