SUBURB HIGHLIGHT
Watsons Bay
Originally a fishing village, removed from the hustle and bustle of Sydney, it is now one of the most exclusive suburbs of Sydney. The vibe is one of stepping back in time, so if commuting isn’t an issue and lifestyle is your most important decision, then Watson’s Bay is the perfect compromise – though not much comes up for sale!
The vibe is laid back and quaint, with fishing cottages interspersed with mansions. Camp Cove beach is a delightful and romantic gem with a beachside cafe that has a regular and devout clientele. Crystal clear blue waters and gentle waves lap the shore.
Walk to the lighthouse through the national park. Doyles fish restaurant is a Sydney legend, as are sundowners at the Watsons Bay hotel and beach club.
Take the ferry from the city (Manly on the weekends) to the door of both establishments. Commute to the city by ferry.

Mosman
The glamorous suburb of Mosman is home to the beautiful and magical Balmoral Beach. Like a gentle impressionist painting, Balmoral beach is lined with bathers languishing on the soft sands. Calm waters mean that safely doing laps is possible and children can play serenely.
Cremorne & Cremorne Point
Two sought-after areas that line Sydney Habour on the North side facing the Opera House and middle Harbour in the other direction. Cremorne, and especially the ritzy Cremorne Point, provide incredible views with their sloping vantage points.
North Sydney
Hugging the Harbour Bridge is the incredibly central suburb of North Sydney on the North Shore. Competing with the CBD for the business center of central Sydney, it offers apartments, shops and office blocks with some older buildings resisting the tide of progress.
