Sydney is the capital city of the state of New South Wales, and the most populous city in Australia. We have decided that is no longer its problem.
Sydney, Australia
Bridge Climb & Property Sigh
"Sunburnt, over-mortgaged, and proud of the harbour view"
Official Coat of Arms
A shield bearing the Harbour Bridge rampant over a sea of 'Auction Today' signs, flanked by a ferry stuck at a wharf and a possum rummaging through a Paddington terrace's bin, with the motto banner reading 'She'll Be Right (Eventually)'.
TripAdvisor Review
★★★★☆ 4/5
"Flew in expecting the Opera House to be the highlight but honestly it was watching a $1.3 million shoebox apartment get bid up in 90 seconds at auction. The harbour is genuinely stunning, the ferries are a delight, but good luck finding parking or an affordable smashed avo that doesn't require a small loan. Also nobody warned me the trains stop working the second there's a hint of a leaf on the tracks."— Barry Fenwick, Wagga Wagga
Property Listing
Breathtaking harbourside lifestyle opportunity offering cosy 38 square metre living, a partial glimpse of a bridge pylon from the bathroom window if you lean out, and unbeatable proximity to three separate light rail construction sites that have been 'almost finished' since 2015.
Twinned With
Monaco — Both are stunning waterfront playgrounds where only the extremely wealthy can actually afford to live.
Supporting Evidence
Sydney's median house price has made owning a modest three-bedroom home a genuine luxury good, roughly on par with a small yacht in some other cities.
