With breathtaking views of Sydney Harbour and a multimillion-dollar renovation, a North Sydney home is making waves in the real estate market ahead of its March 29 auction.
Historic North Sydney Home Aims to Smash Suburb Price Record
North Sydney’s real estate market is set to reach new heights as a heritage-listed home aims to break the suburb’s price record. The six-bedroom, five-bathroom Heatherlie at 116 High Street is expected to sell for over $15 million at auction this month, potentially surpassing the $13.5 million record set in January.
A Blend of History and Modern Luxury
Built in 1899, Heatherlie underwent a meticulous three-year restoration, blending Victorian charm with contemporary upgrades. The renovation included sandstone excavation for a triple garage and a lift spanning all levels.
Original stained glass windows and ornate fireplaces remain, while a Castillo marble kitchen, Falcon induction cooktop, and modern entertaining areas enhance its luxury appeal.

The home features spacious living areas, a self-contained flat, and a terrace for large gatherings, all with 180-degree views of Sydney Harbour. Its transformation highlights North Sydney’s growing demand for luxury homes that blend history with modern living.
Record-Breaking Sale Ahead?

Heatherlie has sparked hot interest from high-end buyers, with market commentators watching closely as it is auctioned on March 29. If it sells for more than $13.5 million, it will be the most costly residence in North Sydney.
As Sydney’s real estate market booms, this sale could set a new benchmark for luxury homes. For North Sydney locals, Heatherlie marks the suburb’s rising prestige and growth as a prime destination for high-end living.
