Lang Rd, Randwick, NSW 2031

Lang Road, Centennial Park is a lengthy road running from Oxford Street, all the way down one side of Centennial Park, to Anzac Parade and Cleveland Street.

Despite the fact that road is a fairly busy through route, it has its attractions. The blocks here are a substantial size – and most of the houses are also. Some are small mansions and others are just plain big. Many of the properties have some historical significance. Most are beautifully renovated. There is, despite the traffic, some degree of privacy here – as the housed side of the street is very verdant and some houses have high front walls and hedges.

Being opposite wonderful Centennial Park is of course a huge bonus. With huge open spaces, cycle paths, horse-riding, a café, duck ponds playgrounds and more, you could easily spend a whole day in this wonderful, and huge, Sydney park. There are horse stables right on Lang Rd.

Situated at the eastern end – in the Moore Park precinct – is the ‘Entertainment Quarter’. This consists of the Fox Studios, iconic Sydney rock venue – The Hordern Pavillion, a large Hoyts complex, and various other entertainment facilities. Depending on what’s on traffic congestion at this end of the street can be bad.

Oxford Street at the other end has all kinds of shopping facilities, and city buses.
