FIND YOUR PLACE ON THE NORTHERN BEACHES

SYDNEY’S NORTHERN BEACHES

The Northern Beaches are our backyard – expect insights no outsider can offer.

Manly

Harbour & surf, commuter-friendly

Harbour on one side, surf on the other. Manly mixes ferry access, beaches and a true seven-day village. Family houses are tightly held and command premiums; quality apartments close to transport and the sand stay competitive. Expect strong demand for A-grade stock, especially renovated homes and light-filled units with parking. If you value lifestyle plus commute options, Manly is hard to beat—just budget for competition when the good ones appear.

Freshwater

Village beachside, tightly held

Freshie’s appeal is simple: a friendly village, a beautiful beach and scarce listings. Renovated family homes and character walk-ups near the shops and sand attract consistent interest. Street and aspect matter—sun, outdoor space and parking are rewarded. It’s a suburb where selection counts: A-grade properties set the pace while average stock can lag. If you want walk-to-everything coastal living without Manly’s bustle, Freshwater belongs on your shortlist.

Fairlight

Harbour views, prestige pocket

Fairlight offers harbour walks, outlooks and proximity to Manly without the same volume of listings. Detached homes are scarce; refurbished apartments with water glimpses or balcony space draw confident buyers. Pricing is resilient at the top end, but presentation and strata health really matter. If you’re chasing a quieter harbour feel with quick access to ferries and beaches, Fairlight is a refined option.

Palm Beach

Prestige Peninsula, outlooks

At the tip of the peninsula, Palm Beach blends ocean drama with Pittwater calm. Stock is unique and cycles can be lumpy, but blue-chip views and standout architecture underpin long-term appeal. Due diligence is key—consider access, exposure and build quality—yet great homes here remain genuinely special. For buyers seeking a statement coastal address (weekender or permanent), this is the Northern Beaches at its most cinematic.

Avalon

Village vibe, beaches & bush

Avalon balances creative village energy with surf at Avalon and nearby Whale Beach. Expect leafy streets, varied block shapes and homes from classic beach cottages to contemporary family builds. Sun, privacy and access can change street-to-street, so on-the-ground checks matter. If you want a slower coastal rhythm with strong community and good local schools, Avalon delivers a distinctive lifestyle.

Dee Why

Town centre & B-Line convenience

Dee Why combines a lively centre, The Strand cafés and rapid-bus links. It’s largely an apartment market with a wide quality range: newer or well-updated units near transport and amenities see steady demand, while older high-density blocks need sharp pricing or upgrades. For first-home buyers and investors, selection and strata health are everything. Houses exist in pockets, with family appeal closer to parks and schools.
