Established in 1976 and with a population of over two thousand residents, Bow Bowing is a reasonably new suburb compared to the early well established ones. Only a distance of 55km from the Sydney CBD it is conveniently situated for shopping and entertainment outings. The suburb was named after a local creek, before which it was called Saggart’s Field after some local residents. The first school was also named after this family but later renamed Minto Public School. It was nearly made into a Housing Commission area at one time, but the idea was overturned because of public concerns. The official opening of the suburb did not eventuate until 1990.
Early learning and child care centres are available for those requiring these facilities and there are florists, a gift basket shop, and a party supplies shop for that special gift giving. There is quite an extensive range of business in the area, including industrial cleaning, petrol stations, pest control, plumbers, construction and architects. There are many more businesses of various types as well as the previously listed, and if you need a mechanic or accountant then you are in luck. Real estate Sydney agencies service the area and will be helpful in getting you into available rental accommodation or your own private home.
For those with a view to investing in this area there are property management Sydney agencies ready to take care of all your rental business for you, saving you time and effort and leaving you free for other activities. Nicely set out with beautiful homes, Bow Bowing is an ideal place for either residents or investors. For those who are looking to keep fit or just to get fit there is a local gym for working out, and for those who are just foodies there is a takeaway food store that also offers home deliveries. Hotels and motels for travellers can be found at nearby suburbs a short drive away.
For a day out with the kids pack a picnic and a bat and ball and head out to the Bow Bowing Park which is big enough for numerous families to enjoy. Many of the homes in the area are fortunate to own a swimming pool for those hot summer days, so if you are in the process of home buying, check with your real estate agent and ask for a house with a pool. Summer will be cooler and a whole lot more enjoyable for the family.
