Barangaroo prize

Sydney apartment prices might be tumbling, but two Hong Kong vendors are expecting at least $3.6m for their two-bedroom and two-bathroom Barangaroo apartment, after paying $2.035m for it in 2013. Selling agent Richard Shalhoub,of Sotheby’s International, says the Barangaroo apartments were considered expensive when they hit the market through Lendlease five years ago but in hindsight had been great investments. Warwick Leung and Carmen Lau’s128sq m harbourfront apartment features a master suite with ensuite terrace access as well as double parking. Interest has been strong with 20 groups inspecting the property in the first week. The block is just metres to ferries, bus and rail transport. Strata fees are $3234 a quarter and the apartment will be auctioned on August 18.
