Freestanding house in premium Double Bay | strong school catchment | flood overlay flagged | recent sale confirms market value This property offers a rare combination of a freestanding house on a 308-square-metre block in a tightly held eastern suburbs pocket, where detached homes are increasingly scarce. The 1940s build with a balcony and swimming pool provides immediate lifestyle appeal, while the recent April 2025 transaction at $6.9 million establishes a transparent pricing benchmark. The strong school catchment for Bellevue Hill Public School and Rose Bay Secondary College makes this particularly suited to families seeking long-term residence in a high-demand location with owner-occupier character. The flood overlay is the primary diligence point, requiring careful review of council flood mapping and any associated insurance or development implications. However, this known condition may also create a negotiating edge if similar properties without the overlay command premiums. The 3.04% estimated rental yield offers a modest income buffer for buyers who may hold before occupying, though the property’s core strength lies in its scarcity and location rather than investment return.
