Sweeping ocean views and perfectly preserved heritage details are the hallmarks of this week’s best properties for sale across Sydney and NSW.
1c Evans St, Bellingen NSW 2454
Take your pick in Bellingen – rainforests and rivers or festivals, food and fine arts. This Mid North Coast town has plenty to recommend it.
This gorgeous house at 1c Evans Street covers all bases; stroll into town or stay up here in the green, elevated and enjoying natural breezes and brilliant vistas.
Cardow & Partners’ Suzanne Atkinson says the distinctive design against this singular setting is bliss. “The craftsmanship by a local builder is spectacular. It’s unique. Full of character and the views are the best in Bellingen.”
A big statement, but hard to argue with once you look out from the lofty living room’s superb deck across to Gleniffer and the Promised Land. The green rises and rolls – a verdant carpet all the way to the horizon.
The handsome, multilevel house is priced from $1.6 million and comes with some fabulous inclusions like the woven net balustrade and divine circular window seat – bag this spot and don’t budge. There’s a loft and studio space, too.
Crisp white walls and lovely timber floors are easily stylish and perfect for framing those epic views, both near – the garden is lush and productive – and far.
DA approval for sub-division and another dwelling adds to an already excellent offering.
19 Rayner Road, Whale Beach NSW 2107
Brimming with creativity, Tiare House feels instantly welcoming. Its ocean-facing decks have hosted countless celebrations from Christmas dinners to milestone birthdays. The rear yard brings another mood – lush with edible plants and views across Avalon and beyond. “There’s also a guest cabin in the garden for guests and family – the whole place just has good vibes and love,” the agent says.
38 Darling Street, Balmain East NSW 2041
Built in 1861 by a master mariner, this grand Victorian terrace commands an end-of-peninsula perch with Harbour Bridge views. Set on a double block between Darling and Paul streets, it pairs period detail with manicured gardens and a carriage-house studio. “The rear garage and studio add another layer of flexibility for the family who’ve proudly made this terrace their home for 43 years,” the agent says.
65 Lauderdale Avenue, Fairlight NSW 2094
Balconies stacked across three levels and a winding garden give this century-old residence its magic. In this place, the family, who have lived here for 10 years, have hosted weddings and baby showers, sunset cocktails and karaoke nights with neighbours. “The Manly fireworks are a favourite from the upper balcony, and each Boxing Day the highlight is watching the Sydney to Hobart [yacht] race,” the agent says.
50 Glenmore Road & 33 Hopewell Street, Paddington NSW 2021
A free-standing Victorian terrace paired with a converted warehouse on one title is a rare combination in the heart of Paddington. Between them, a private garden creates a sense of space and separation – a true luxury in a suburb defined by attached homes. “The warehouse has served as a design studio but, with DA approval for an Anthony Gill-designed residence, its next chapter is wide open,” the agent says.
1702/1B Lawson Square, Redfern NSW 2016
High above the city, this penthouse in the award-winning TNT Residences frames Sydney from a whole new perspective. Its prized north-east corner embraces panoramic views – best savoured from the rooftop terrace where a spa crowns the experience. “Other luxuries include a veined marble kitchen, a master suite with a private balcony and a bespoke cellar wall with a Miele wine fridge,” the agent says.
6 Coolawin Road, Avalon Beach NSW 2107
Lunches for more than 30 guests and garden parties have all unfolded at this coastal family home, where the pool and al fresco zone provide the perfect backdrop for entertaining. Inside, the sunlit living areas offer bliss for quieter moments. “The vendors love heading into Avalon at sunrise to watch dolphins and stopping for coffee at their favourite spots,” the agent says.
51 & 53 Shierlaw Road, Robertson NSW 2577
There’s a deep calm that comes with arriving at Wallagunda, a rare dual-title country estate. Inside, the French barn-style home features bagged brick walls and raked ceilings that set a timeless stage. “The home perfectly complements the landscape, with pristine bushland and a meandering creek inviting quiet moments of stillness,” the agent says.
35 Black Wattle Circuit, Casuarina NSW 2487
Built in 2023, Serenita is a Mediterranean-style retreat inspired by the owners’ travels through Italy and Greece, set directly on Casuarina’s coastline. Soaring ceilings and a chef-grade kitchen create a striking stage for entertaining, opening to the swimming pool and shaded terrace. “You can hear the ocean all throughout the home and wander out the back gate straight to the beach,” the agent says.
36 Gerda Road, Macmasters Beach NSW 2251
It’s rare to find a brand-new architectural home in this tightly held pocket, just 30 metres from the sands of MacMasters Beach. Especially one with mid-century lines and a Palm Springs spirit, featuring soaring ceilings and vast openings that invite in the sea breeze. “The outlook is extraordinary, with sweeping views from MacMasters across to Copacabana Headlands – never to be built out,” the agent says.
25 Bangalow Road, Byron Bay NSW 2481
Tucked behind a stone-clad entrance and lush tropical gardens, Bangalow Road House is a newly completed home minutes from Byron Bay. Designed by Son Studio, its tactile finishes and soaring sight lines draw the outdoors in. “Living areas extend to a private terrace and heated pool with a striking designer kitchen that includes an indoor-outdoor concrete bench and servery window,” the agent says.
6 Tomerong Street, Huskisson NSW 2540
History is etched into this 1950s Huskisson home, once a bed and breakfast running for over a decade. Since 2015, its owners have breathed new life into the property. “Light-filled interiors with soaring ceilings and timber floors open to large terraces and leafy gardens alive with birdlife. It’s adaptable as a residence, weekend retreat or holiday rental with proven appeal,” says the agent.
3 Butler Circle, Mudgee NSW 2850
Created as a private retreat in the heart of Mudgee, this contemporary estate has given its owners evenings by the fire with local wine, lively gatherings in the grand kitchen and family celebrations by the pool. Its warmth extends to the acclaimed guest barn. “It offers the flexibility to welcome friends and family or provide a steady income from visitors drawn to the winery region,” the agent says.
