Guide: $710,000 – $780,000

The lowest price paid for a three-bedroom unit in Mosman in the past year was $920,000, on Cabramatta Road in August, and the median price there is $1.6 million.

Much cheaper, this recently refreshed top-floor, 87-square-metre unit has windows on three sides and it shares just one wall. Middle Harbour Public is over the fence.

$665,000 to $725,000

1 bed, 1 bath, 1 car

This 64-square-metre unit on the top floor has a study that could be used as a smaller second bedroom, but it’s priced like a one bedder. The main bedroom and the lounge both open onto an east-facing balcony and the unit is flushed with light. The bathroom has a tub and the block has a pool, spa, sauna and gym and superfast internet.
