Putney suburb profile

Putney sits on the northern bank of the Parramatta River in Sydney's northern suburbs, part of the City of Ryde. It is a predominantly residential riverside pocket defined by foreshore parks, a ferry wharf on the river and tree-lined streets. Housing ranges from modest mid-century cottages to waterfront homes and low-rise apartments, attracting families, professionals and retirees who favour a quieter, waterside lifestyle. Weekends here revolve around boating, riverside walks and picnics, and the suburb has small shops and cafés near the wharf while larger retail and services are in nearby Ryde and Gladesville, with ferry and bus links to surrounding centres.
