If you want the Darling Point views without the price tag, this small suburb in the heart of Sydney's inner city, Rushcutters Bay, is probably your best bet. Take it all in, T-Bone. Space to ponder. Look at those views. This is the inner city's version of the bay. This is your harbour. Just 3 kilometers from the CBD and you're between Potts Point, Darlinghurst, and Edgecliff, and you're under 10 minutes walk to each of those suburbs. Got Rushcutters Bay Park, which is behind me here. Here. You've got plenty of cafes, restaurants, shops, and because of public transport, getting around is super easy as well. 2 train stations to pick from. You've got King's Cross and Edgecliff Station, and it's a 10-minute drive into the city. You might as well walk. In fact, you could.

There's almost no houses, and a majority of these apartments have exclusive Exquisite harbour views.
