A Festive Snapshot of Noranda 🎅
Tucked into the City of Bayswater, Noranda borders vibrant suburbs like Morley, Dianella, and Malaga. Since its development in the 1970s, it has welcomed families, retirees, and professionals into its mix of classic and modern homes.
With around 8,000 residents, Noranda thrives on its close-knit vibe. During the holidays, this sense of community comes alive—locals compete in friendly battles of Christmas light displays, parks host festive picnics, and everyone seems to channel their inner elf to spread joy.

Noranda is like the Christmas gift that keeps on giving—offering peaceful living with easy access to everything you need. Located just 15-20 minutes from Perth’s CBD, it’s ideal for those who want a slower pace without missing out on city perks.
With Tonkin Highway and Reid Highway nearby, travelling to other parts of Perth is a breeze. Plus, the newly opened Noranda Train Station is the star on top of the tree, promising even easier commutes and likely boosting property values in the process.
