Suburb Report

Darling Point.

One of Sydney's most tightly held pockets — houses traded just 8 times this year, at a median of $9.13m, with 110 homes changing hands in the last twelve months.

The market, in plain words

In the twelve months to September 2026, Darling Point recorded just 8 house sales at a median of $9.13m — a market defined by scarcity rather than turnover. The spread is wide: the highest recorded house sale reached $21.0m, while entry to the suburb — excluding outlier transfers — starts around $3.47m.

Apartments changed hands 102 times in the same period — 94 more transactions than houses, at a median of $2.70m. The median unit rent is $1,350 a week, putting gross yields at 2.6%.

At the 2021 Census the suburb was home to about 4,000 people; 87% of dwellings are apartments, and 35% of households rent.

Darling Point is the apartment capital of the harbour — tightly held buildings where the right aspect changes everything. Houses here are rarer still.
