1 day ago 1

Woolooware Bay is set to totally reshape a quiet pocket of Sydney’s Sutherland Shire, and time is running out to buy your piece.

The final piece of the Woolooware Bay development has now been completed, transforming the  quiet yet centrally-located suburb of Woolooware.

This exciting new addition brings an array of shops, amenities and stunning waterside residences, offering a vibrant lifestyle by the bay.

With residents moved in ahead of the holiday season and while the majority of apartments have already been snapped up, however a handful of newly released residences are still available from the developer, offering a rare chance to join this thriving community.

Era Newcastle sets a new luxury standard for city living.


Vision by the bay

Woolooware Bay is the culmination of 14 years of meticulous hard work by the project’s developers.

Combining luxury living, great shopping and amenities and an enviable coastal location, it’s a truly landmark development for the Sutherland Shire and will give the surrounding area a welcome shake-up.

"The project offers an exceptional range of on-site amenities, along with a highly sought-after connection to nature," says Matt Drury, the project's Development Manager.

"You’ve got the pool, barbecue areas, and the Bay Central shopping centre just downstairs, where residents can take care of their everyday shopping, get a haircut, and meet their daily needs.

"And just across the road is the golf course, providing even more leisure opportunities."

Those moving into Woolooware Bay will be in for a real treat when it comes to their residences.

These three bedrooms developer’s collection, provide an incredible amount of living space and priority placed on outdoor living – think abundant greenery and generously proportioned covered balconies or private courtyard gardens designed for entertaining.

There are also exceptional views on offer, with many directly overlooking the water or towards the Sydney CBD. Every apartment includes secure parking and lift access, too.

Enjoy top amenities, from a heated pool to rooftop gardens.


With only eight residences left, and given the pace that previous apartments have sold, they’re bound to go quickly.

“It’s truly the last opportunity to secure a home in Woolooware Bay’s most exclusive residences,” says , Drury.

“With well planned layouts, high-end finishes, and unbeatable waterside views, these apartments are designed to offer a luxurious and connected lifestyle that’s hard to find elsewhere.”

 These three-bedroom apartments are priced starting from $1.75 million, with the largest and most premium residences in the collection reaching up to $3.5 million.

Growing market demand for the Sutherland Shire

Recent market trends indicate steady growth in the Sutherland Shire, with median house prices increasing by 4.2% and unit prices by 3.4% over the past year, according to realestate.com.au data.

Rental properties in Woolooware and neighboring suburbs continue to offer attractive yields. New apartments in the area tend to sell quickly, with a median time on the market of just 23 days, reflecting the high demand and limited supply.

As of March 2024, the Sutherland Shire stands out as one of the nation's top-performing metro rental markets. It averages 21 enquiries per listing, boasts a remarkably low vacancy rate of 0.9%, and has seen an impressive year-on-year growth in median rent of 13.6%.

Resort-style living

Being a grand mixed-use development, Woolooware Bay will become a brand-new hub for the local area – and residents will be able to enjoy all of it on their doorstep.

The project’s Bay Central Shopping Centre opened only early this year and houses major retailers including Woolworths, Aldi and Dan Murphy’s.

There are also health and wellness facilities like a medical centre and fully-equipped gym, a childcare centre, a selection of retailers including a bustling fresh food market, and a dining precinct with 12 venues that overlook the bay.

As well, there’s a 10,235-square-metre stretch of parklands along the bay. Inside, there’s an inclusive children’s playground, a shared pedestrian and cycle path, numerous outdoor fitness zones, and good access to the additional walking and cycle paths around the district.

For visitors, there are 770 undercover parking spaces nearby.

Residents will also have access to a number of exclusive amenities, including resort-style pools, a rooftop with lush landscaping and 360-degree views, and entertaining spaces including an al fresco barbecue area.

Curated community

In a region where it’s common to not only know but befriend your neighbours, it makes sense that the team behind Woolooware Bay wanted to incorporate the same sense of belonging.

The project is the ideal spot for downsizers and other owner-occupiers, especially those who are seeking community and camaraderie with their fellow residents rather than simply a place to live.

“The vision for Woolooware Bay was to be an interpretation of the traditional suburban cul-de-sac; a place where neighbours would gather, laugh, celebrate and help one another,” says Drury.

Beyond Woolooware Bay itself, the wider suburb of Woolooware is friendly and welcoming, and home to numerous locals who have lived in the area for decades.
