The Lower North Shore could be your new neighbourhood
Located on the northern side of Sydney Harbour and stretching from the Lane Cove River in the west to Mosman in the east and Chatswood and Castle Cove to the north, the Lower North Shore is a convenient yet more spacious and leafier alternative to the Inner West and a cheaper option to comparable real estate in the Eastern Suburbs. Many homes and apartments have spectacular water views and houses sit on relatively large blocks of land considering their proximity to the CBD. There are also many reputable schools here, as well as on the Upper North Shore. Public transport options are abound with ferry, bus and train services. The automated Sydney Metro will also complement the existing train service when it begins operation in 2019.
The Lower North Shore is also blessed with numerous stunning National Parks and reserves with free entry, many of which front Sydney Harbour have views of the Harbour Bridge.
Property market info for Lower North Shore
The Lower North Shore has recently seen a resurgence of interest in property due to its relative underperformance compared to its inner city peers over the last few years. Many pockets now provide excellent value while still providing easy access to the CBD and amenities.
The median Lower North Shore house price is $2.875 million according to Domain. Although quite expensive on average, the Lower North Shore has a lot of waterfront property and prices vary widely between waterfront and non-waterfront homes. The region will also have strong long term demand due to the factors mentioned above and limited housing supply compared to inner city areas.
Mosman is the North Shore’s premier location with a median house price of $4.7m while relatively cheaper options include Crow’s Nest and Naremburn with median house prices of $2.4m and $2.7m respectively. Period homes are common in the eastern half of the Lower North Shore in areas such as Cammeray, Neutral Bay and Cremorne, however many are being replaced with modern architect designed homes to capitalise on Harbour views. More modern properties make up the majority of homes in areas to the west such as Lane Cove that were colonised at a later date.
Apartments provide a more affordable entry point into property on the Lower North Shore, with one bedroom units with parking close to transport and amenities available for less than $900,000. Units are popular with a range of buyers from first home buyers to investors and downsizers.

Developers are meeting this growing demand by constructing more large luxury apartments – sometimes the apartments are size of a house!

Recreation and Other Amenities in Lower North Shore
Locals love sporting and physical activities, as noted by a recent study which found that Sydney’s Lower North Shore and Beaches had the lowest obesity rate in Australia. One of the most popular activities is taking in Harbour views via the 16.5km walking path from the Harbour Bridge to the Spit Bridge via Balmoral Beach and great lookouts at Cremorne Point and Bradleys Head. Optionally stop along the way to take in a beautiful Harbour sunset.
With great access to the Harbour, water sports are also very popular, particularly at Balmoral and Middle Harbour where the water is calmer. The Lower North Shore is home to a variety of gyms and many are now open 24 hours a day. Personal and group fitness training is gaining more support and often takes place in beautiful harbour front reserves.
Taronga Zoo is a must see. It has great Harbour views and evening performances during the summer months. If you’re feel like a movie, the historic Orpheum theatre in Cremorne is a trip back in time or alternatively Hoyts Chatswood offers all the latest blockbusters and ‘Hoyts Lux.’
