Whether you’re on the hunt for your next home, or simply appreciate beautiful architecture and interior design, Sydney’s real estate market has plenty of wish-list-worthy properties. 

In this week’s showcase, take your pick from four of Domain’s favourites, in Woollahra, Cronulla, Glebe and Palm Beach.

Palm Beach

This three-level home has space in spades. Of its four bedrooms, two have water views and ensuites. There’s potential on the lower level to create another bedroom for guests, a private retreat, or maybe even a yoga studio.

You might find it hard to drag your eyes away from the view, which spans Pittwater, Careel Bay, and up to Ku-ring-gai National Park. 

LJ Hooker Palm Beach agent Peter Robinson is selling the home, which he’s priced at $2,895,000.

Woollahra

This home is blessed by a killer location: it has level access to Woollahra village, the expansive greens of Centennial Park to the south, and some of Sydney’s most famous beaches to the east.

The property has been a labour of love for its current owner, who designed its stylish finishes and fittings himself.

Ben Collier of the Agency is asking $3 million for the property which will go to auction on August 12.

Belle Property Glebe’s Mark Tooth says the shingle-style cottage is filled with 19th-century charm. 

As keen design buffs may recognise, it takes cues from the work of notable American architect John Horbury Hunt.

The vendor’s are hoping to snag a sale price of $3.6 million to $3.7 million.

Cronulla

This apartment may have been renovated extensively in recent years, but there’s no going past the outlook over Cronulla beach when choosing its star feature.

“It feels like you’re surrounded by water,” says agent Matthew Callaghan of Highland Property Agents Cronulla, who expects to sell for between $2,250,000 and $2,475,000 at the August 12 auction.

To have a morning coffee or breakfast with a view, residents can just hop downstairs to the aptly named Next Door cafe.
