Battery Point

Considered selling, leasing, and property management across Battery Point's heritage streets and harbour edge.

Battery Point sits on the headland between Salamanca and Sandy Bay, a tight grid of colonial cottages, sandstone terraces, and lanes that run down to the water. Arthur Circus, Kelly Street, and the walk to the wharves give it a character that has not changed in generations, and homes here rarely come to market.

It suits owners who value provenance and position: buyers who want a piece of the city's history within a few minutes of Salamanca, the waterfront, and town.

Heritage homes sell on their detail and their story, so presentation that treats the period features honestly, paired with pricing grounded in recent local sales, is what reaches the right buyer.


Battery Point at a glance

Its housing is mixed: close to half is apartments and townhouses, with colonial cottages and sandstone terraces making up much of the rest on streets like Colville Street and Hampden Road.

Almost half of residents rent, so alongside the tightly held cottages there is steady demand for well-placed apartments near Kelly's Steps and the harbour.
