Kenthurst

Kenthurst is a semi-rural suburb in Sydney’s Hills District that combines peaceful, country-style living with modern amenities. Historically an agricultural area known for its large acreage properties and orchards, it now features key community landmarks such as the Kenthurst and Annangrove War Memorial, the Kenthurst Village shopping hub, and several well-regarded schools like The Hills Grammar School. This blend of spacious properties, essential services, and a strong, family-oriented atmosphere makes it a desirable residential area. The suburb’s name itself, adopted in 1887, evokes its leafy character, derived from the Old English for a “wooded hill.” Residents also take advantage of local green spaces like Kenthurst Park, which enhance the area’s natural appeal and provide venues for community sport.
