Feature Property: 1/11 John Street, McMahons Point
Location...
McMahons Point is a beautiful peninsular
situated just over the bridge after Milsons
Point, adjoining North Sydney to the north; it
is on of Sydney’s finest locations. Surrounded
by water and parks of Sydney Harbour,
Berry’s Bay and Lavender Bay.
Dream Home...
The original occupants of
this region were the Cammeraygal
(or perhaps
Quiberie tribal affiliations
seem to have been loose
and amorphous). These
people lived along the
foreshores and in bushland,
cliffs and rock shelters
prior to European settlement.
Arrchitecture and heritage has been largely preserved in
McMahons Point as there has been a long-term plan
during the seventies and eighties which ended in disapproval,
and in the mean time the existing properties
were saved from high-rise developments, leaving this
locality with rich architectural diversity.
This is a most exciting location to be living in, there is no limit to the possibility for a good life,
from riding a bicycle over the bridge and watching the stunning sunsets over the harbour to taking
walks around the water front opposite the Opera House and strolling under the Harbour
bridge to the tranquil Lavender Bay and around to Berry's Bay and Balls Head with parks for the
children to play in, or places of serene quietude to sooth the mind.
11 John Street is perfectly position as the end of the Street and the last property in the locality to
the west. In front is the Berry’s Bay and adjoining Waverton Park to one side. This would have to
be the quietest location in McMahons Point
