By Pauline Morrissey and Lou Sweeney

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

37A Edward Street, Woollahra NSW

Could you honestly find a better combination of stone, scene and sanctuary than this remarkable three-level Woollahra wonder?

Brand-new and beautiful, it sits with its back against a sandstone cliff, conferring a dug-in, elemental feel that is simply breathtaking.

It’s tricky to fashion something that can sit lightly in the singular environment but also hold its own weight, but 37a Edward Street neatly achieves that alchemy.

“It’s high-end, beautifully appointed, very glamorous,” says Maclay Longhurst of Sotheby’s. “It’s also a really convenient layout, north-facing and has loads of storage.”

Sometimes, these supremely good lookers forget those finer details. Here, everything – from the large garage with internal access, to the easy flow across three lush levels – has been effortlessly incorporated.

The white dolomite stone in the kitchen and bathrooms is a gloriously smooth counter to the rough-hewn beauty of the natural external setting, while the rich timber cabinetry throughout is all sophisticated style.

There is a generous amount of accommodation, with two fine ground-floor bedrooms and two more on the next storey. Right up top, the spectacular main suite opens up onto an extraordinary rooftop terrace.

The guide for the February 13 auction is $7 million.

246 Whale Beach Road, Whale Beach NSW

Whale Beach exudes elusive magic, and this architectural marvel perfectly encapsulates its exclusivity, perched on a prized block with world-class ocean views. “Every space offers stunning gun-barrel views, from the massive open-plan living room to the terrace and pool,” the agent shares. “Just 20 metres from beach access and 99 metres to the sand, the property’s 50-metre frontage adjoins protected green space, ensuring privacy and seclusion.”

38 Hudson Parade, Avalon Beach NSW

Held by one family for over 70 years, this original 1940s weatherboard cottage offers deep-water frontage in Clareville, boasting dazzling views of Pittwater. “Inside, hardwood floors and a stone fireplace nod to its vintage appeal,” says the agent. “The waterfront patio and pool area have hosted countless gatherings, while sandstone paths lead to lush gardens and a private boathouse and jetty – perfect for kayaking, fishing, or boating adventures.”

54 Caledonia Street, Paddington NSW

Fraser House, a double-fronted mid-century home designed, built, and lived in by renowned architect Vivian Fraser, offers an alternative option to your traditional Paddington terrace. “Revitalised by Noek Witzand, the home merges modern materials with Fraser’s original vision,” says the agent. “The internal courtyard is a standout, offering private outdoor space that floods the interiors with natural light while enhancing ventilation and openness.”

3/49 Drumalbyn Road, Bellevue Hill NSW

Paying homage to the site’s original Spanish mission building, Palomar, crafted by MHN Design Union, exudes Mediterranean magic on Bellevue Hill’s prestigious slopes. “Arched windows, raked ceilings, and exquisite stonework set it apart from typical developments,” says the agent. “The covered front terrace, connected to the huge open-plan living and dining space, overlooks lush gardens – a favourite retreat, even in the rain.”

24/111-117 McEvoy Street, Alexandria NSW 

Built in 1953 as a factory for McPherson’s, an engineering firm that produced hardware for the Sydney Harbour Bridge, this former warehouse has been transformed into an inspired loft-style abode. “Industrial windows and mushroom-capped pillars are elements that honour its storied past,” says the agent. “The vendors love lounging beneath the double-height windows, watching lorikeets play on branches as sunlight streams through the leaves.”
