From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Glen Alpine is a suburb of Campbelltown in Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. Glen Alpine is one of the most modern suburbs in the local government area of Campbelltown. The suburb is relatively low density, being with all residential dwellings being detached houses. Two-storey "McMansion's" are fairly common throughout the suburb. Glen Alpine is a golf course estate, with houses surrounding the Campbelltown Golf Club.
The suburb started simply as a golf estate with houses constructed mainly inside the looping design of the 18 hole course. From the late 1990s the suburb expanded outside this ring to link with the local shopping centre Macarthur Square. This development included the creation of a local shopping and tennis complex 500 metres from the Clubhouse of the golf course. In the past few years the estate has expanded into the area between the Par 3 6th hole and Menangle Rd, creating a housing development are consisting of over 50 new single and double storey houses in the original detached style of Glen Alpine. Notable residents of the suburb include former Australian Labor Party leader Mark Latham.
