South of the Comenarra Parkway, bordered by Lane Cove National Park, and built on the generous blocks that define this part of the North Shore.
South Turramurra is a separate suburb from Turramurra proper, sitting south of the Comenarra Parkway and centred around Kissing Point Road. It is part of the Ku-ring-gai Council local government area, 17 kilometres north-west of the Sydney CBD, and shares the generally elevated, leafy character that defines the Upper North Shore. The suburb's western boundary is Lane Cove National Park - the start of the Great North Walk runs through this edge of the suburb - which gives South Turramurra its bushland backdrop and limits development on that side of the street network.
The housing stock is predominantly large freestanding family homes on generous blocks, reflecting the block sizes allocated when this part of the North Shore was subdivided in the early twentieth century. Turramurra High School is the main institutional landmark within the suburb. The Comenarra Parkway provides the primary connection to the Pacific Highway and from there to the rest of Sydney, and Kissing Point Road handles the internal residential movement. The nearest significant commercial strip is the Turramurra village shopping precinct, a short drive or bus ride north along the Pacific Highway.
The suburb sits at around 170 metres above sea level on the hilly Upper North Shore terrain, and many of its residential streets reflect that topography. Properties on the western streets close to Lane Cove National Park tend to have longer carries from the road and sometimes significant slope from the street to the front door. The eastern streets closer to the Pacific Highway corridor are generally more accessible, though block sizes here are still generous by Sydney standards.
The main access variable in South Turramurra is the driveway. Properties here sit on substantially larger blocks than the inner suburbs, and the distance from the road to the front door can be significant. Some driveways are long and straight, which is manageable. Some are long and sloped, which requires the truck to sit on the street and the crew to carry items over a longer distance than the load time suggests. And some have tight turning spaces at the top that determine whether the truck can back in at all. Billy assesses driveway access for any South Turramurra property where the standard check reveals potential complexity.
Kissing Point Road is the practical spine of the suburb for truck access, with the residential streets branching off it handling the rest. The streets closest to Lane Cove National Park on the western side of the suburb are the ones most likely to present access considerations - narrower roads, overhanging vegetation in some sections, and the occasional driveway that disappears into the bush. For properties on these streets, an early start is useful because the road is quieter and there is no competition for positioning.
The Comenarra Parkway carries the main through-traffic and connects the suburb to the Pacific Highway. At morning peak it can slow the approach from the highway direction, and Billy plans any South Turramurra job so the truck is in position before that window. The Lane Cove National Park boundary also means some streets are genuinely dead-ends, and Jet maps the return route at the start of any multi-stop job in this suburb so there is no unnecessary backtracking.

"Moved from a South Turramurra house with a long sloped driveway. Billy had been out beforehand and had the truck positioning sorted before moving day. Everything carried down without a hitch."- Andrew F., South Turramurra family home move
