Carramar came into being in 1995 as a subdivision of Neerabup, with the suburb name approved in 1997. The name “Carramar” is recorded as an Aboriginal word meaning “shade of trees”, reflecting the local environment and the green design intent that followed. The suburb is bounded by Flynn Drive, Pinjar Road, Joondalup Drive and Wanneroo Road.
Carramar’s grid carries a strong native flora and fauna thread, with street names referencing banksias, eucalypts and local wildlife. Around community parks and the golf estate, the pattern reinforces a sense of place and connects neighbourhoods to the broader bushland identity that defines the area.
Life in Carramar revolves around parks, ovals and community facilities. Families make use of local play spaces and sporting reserves, while daily needs are met at Carramar Village Shopping Centre on Joondalup Drive. The centre is anchored by a national supermarket with a mix of specialty retailers, services and medical tenancies.
Our Carramar property management focuses on careful tenant selection, preventative maintenance and lease renewals aligned to seasonal demand.

Carramar enjoys straightforward access across the corridor. Joondalup Drive provides a direct link to the Mitchell Freeway and Joondalup Station for fast access to the Perth CBD, while Pinjar Road and Wanneroo Road connect east–west and north–south.

Carramar’s 18-hole public course opened in the mid-1990s and remains a popular local venue, with a driving range and practice facilities. Ongoing investment and upgrades across the City’s public courses support Carramar’s long-standing recreation identity and add to the suburb’s lifestyle value.
