9/2 Bortfield Drive, Chiswick NSW 2046

Waterfront reserve setting | North-facing light | Tightly held complex | Rivercat 200m This apartment occupies a rare position within a small waterfront block on the Chiswick peninsula, where north-facing aspect and wall-to-wall glass maximise natural light and water views across to Henley. The configuration is practical for a downsizer or professional couple seeking low-maintenance living with a covered alfresco area and pool access. The tightly held complex and upgraded block reduce the likelihood of major special levies, while the separate storage on title adds utility. For a buyer prioritising lifestyle amenity and transport connectivity, the Rivercat and buses within 200 metres, this property offers a defensible position in a precinct with limited supply. The main risk is the single bathroom, which narrows appeal to couples or singles and may cap future resale competition. Strata at $1,215 per quarter is moderate but should be reviewed for sinking fund health. The mid-3% rental yield suggests the property suits an owner-occupier more than a pure investor, though the waterfront location provides long-term capital resilience. Hold this as a primary residence or lifestyle hold; do not overpay chasing the view premium.
