Looking for your next home within NSW? We’ve got you covered.

38 View Street, Woollahra

Michael Pallier of Sydney Sotheby’s International Realty calls 38 View Street, Woollahra, an “iceberg house” – where “there’s as much downstairs as there is upstairs”, he says. “You mostly find them in London.”

You’d scarcely find a better description of this extraordinary four-storey home.

“It really is a one-off, quite a special property,” Pallier says. Indeed.

There aren’t too many places where the entry-floor kitchen-dining-living area showcases spectacular treetops-to-Harbour Bridge views while, below, two further levels brim with astonishing amenity.

One floor down, two bedrooms, a chic bathroom and a rangy living room share the space as it fans north to access the private, hedged garden.

It’s what lies below, though, that really stops you in your tracks.

Carved out of the sandstone base, the very bottom floor accommodates a stunning indoor pool. A skylight illuminates proceedings and a series of arches atmospherically display that brawny, beautiful rock wall. Incredible.

Right up top, it’s pretty good too – three bedrooms, a central bathroom and the superb main suite with more of those brilliant views to the bridge.

High ceilings, heated limestone floors and marble finishes are some of the lush inclusions.

“It’s beautifully built,” says the agent says.

The expressions-of-interest campaign has a guide of $11 million.

26 Hillcrest Avenue, Mona Vale

Crowning an exclusive clifftop address, this remarkable ocean-view home invites you to kick off your shoes and indulge in barefoot luxury. “Countless hours can be spent with family and friends relaxing in the lounge or on the patio, where the magic of the sky transitioning from day to dusk is your evening entertainment,” says the agent. “Convincing your guests to leave might be the only challenge of living here.”

126 Louisa Road, Birchgrove

With each sunrise casting a golden glow over Sydney Harbour, this exquisite waterfront terrace showcases historic charm while embracing modern refinement. “The northerly deck captures 180-degree vistas from Cockatoo Island to Wollstonecraft – a premium spot for New Year’s Eve fireworks,” says the agent. “A standout feature is the heritage-designed boatshed, currently valued as an art studio and for its maritime use.”

70 Bank Street, North Sydney

Transformed by renowned Australian interior designer Lisa Burdus, this c1880 former whaler’s cottage beautifully blends classic English country style with a vibrant and lively palette. “Set among peaceful gardens, the three-level abode is updated for modern living while retaining its romantic appeal,” the agent describes. “Imagine restful evenings in the coral-pink walled living room, bathed in the glow of the open fireplace.”

50 Cowan Drive, Cottage Point

Immersed within the ancient landscapes of the Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park, this meticulously renovated home boasts a design that feels as though cantilevered over the water with uninterrupted views. “Northern light spills throughout the interiors, with galleries of glass framing the phenomenal backdrop,” says the agent. “The privacy here is tantalising, and the boathouse and deepwater jetty make it ideal for weekend adventures.”

108 Cabarita Road, Avalon Beach

Soaking up water views over Careel Bay, this natural bushland retreat beckons endless summer days of entertainment with its split-level floor plan and expansive outdoor spaces. “The main living area is the home’s focal point, perfect for relaxing while overlooking the Pittwater or the pool,” says the agent. “Just minutes from Avalon Beach’s vibrant restaurants and boutiques, this home exudes that constant holiday vibe.”

45 Chelsea Street, Redfern

Playfully combining a classic terrace facade with a modern and expansive extension, this home showcases impeccable craftsmanship with wide oak floorboards, exposed brick walls, and abundant natural light. “It delivers a unique urban sanctuary in a walk-to-everywhere location,” says the agent. “With direct side access to Chelsea Street Playground, enjoy one of the biggest backyards Redfern has to offer.”
