Known for its blend of historic charm and modern amenities, the housing market in Pyrmont is typically competitive, characterized by a mix of high-rise apartments and beautifully restored terrace houses. The area's transformation from a former industrial hub into a vibrant urban locale has driven real estate prices upward, reflecting its desirability among both homeowners and investors. With the proximity to the CBD, stunning water views, and the Sydney Fish Market nearby, properties in Pyrmont often command premium prices.
