Once a working wharf precinct, Pyrmont has steadily evolved into a vibrant inner-city village — and now, a wave of billion-dollar projects is cementing its reputation as one of Sydney’s most desirable postcodes.
At the heart of this transformation is Pyrmont Place, Landream’s new flagship address.
Designed by BVN with owner-occupiers in mind, it blends luxury finishes with community-minded amenities, proving that prestige living here isn’t just about views – it’s about everyday ease.
A suburb on the rise
For decades, Pyrmont was seen as a quieter alternative to the eastern suburbs, but today it’s becoming the ‘next move’ suburb for those who want prestige and harbour access without eastern suburbs price tags.
With the $750-million Sydney Fish Market redevelopment, the Blackwattle Bay renewal, a new Sydney Metro West station on the horizon, along with a planned new ferry wharf linking the Sydney Fish Market to Circular Quay, the suburb is being re-imagined as a connected, walkable lifestyle hub.
The market is already responding: Pyrmont’s median house price surged 65.7% in the past year to $2.9 million, while median unit prices have held at $1.1 million.
This is creating rare opportunities for both prestige buyers and those looking for an entry point before the suburb’s next growth wave.
Life shaped by the harbour
The appeal is about more than numbers.
Blackwattle Bay will soon offer landscaped parks, a 30-metre wide waterfront promenade and a missing link in Sydney’s 15 km foreshore walk.
The revitalised Fish Market will bring seafood traders, boutique retailers and world-class harbourside dining.
Together, these projects are reshaping Pyrmont into a neighbourhood that rivals Sydney’s most coveted postcodes.
“Investment of almost a billion dollars shows this is a major growth area for Sydney,” says Tim Rees from SRM Residential, the master agent on the project.
Pyrmont Place: A new benchmark
Positioned in the heart of Blackwattle Bay, Pyrmont Place delivers 287 residences ranging from light-filled studios to expansive four-bedroom apartments.
Every detail — from natural light and city-to-harbour views to premium finishes throughout — has been designed to create homes people truly want to live in.
“The beauty of the whole development is that it’s been designed specifically for owner-occupiers,” Mr Rees says.
“They have very high-quality craftsmanship internally, especially with the finishes and fittings of the apartments.”
Amenities extend the lifestyle beyond the front door: communal gardens, resort-style pools, barbecue areas, work-from-home pods, dog wash bay, basketball courts and onsite childcare make Pyrmont Place a community in its own right – and one designed with longevity and future-proofed living in mind.

Why buyers are acting now
For prestige buyers, downsizers and professionals, Pyrmont offers something rare: a harbourside lifestyle with long-term capital growth potential, all within walking distance of the CBD, Ultimo, Sydney University and Darling Harbour.
With major projects underway and the suburb’s prestige profile on the rise, now is the moment to explore what Pyrmont Place — and the wider Pyrmont peninsula — has to offer.
“Opportunities like this don’t come along often in Sydney,” Mr Rees says.
“Pyrmont Place is one of the few chances to secure a luxury harbourside home in a precinct that’s about to take off.”
He notes growing demand from downsizers seeking convenience, as well as professionals looking for a prestige lifestyle that will hold long-term value.
