The best properties on the market in Sydney right now
We thought they called the suburb Glamorama for all the beautiful people here, but looking at places like 3 Dellview Street in Tamarama, we realise it might just be these smooth, seaside spreads that up the attractive ante.
3 Dellview Street, Tamarama NSW
This home's expansive corner block site allows for some of the best things in life – blue-water views, languid space across two levels, and a high-end fitout that's not only sumptuous but sustainably minded too.
It begins with hydronic heating under the Austrian oak floors and extends to the loft of the second level's cathedral ceiling, allowing the sea breezes, sunshine and views to flow through.
In between there are four large, lovely bedrooms, bathrooms decked out in calacatta marble, and a lush living area that flows out through bifold glass to the sandstone al fresco space and manicured garden.
'Absolutely 10 out of 10,' says PPD Real Estate's Alexander Phillips. 'One of the best finishes I've ever seen in the area.'
Rear-lane access is a boon here too, and there's a brilliant rooftop garden above the garage.
Smart cross ventilation, a solar array and battery, and comprehensive home automation are cutting-edge clever. Then there's the view.
The June 21 auction carries a guide of $7 million.

ADX gears up for multi-well gas push in Upper Austria
ADX Energy is poised to spark a new energy chapter in gas-hungry Europe after the company locked and loaded seven shallow gas drill targets with a combined mean prospective net resource of 29 billion cubic feet (Bcf) of gas in Upper Austria's Molasse Basin. The play has been planned as a low-risk, low-cost exploration program. The total net resource estimate for all targets ranges from 12.1Bcf as a low-ball guesstimate and to 49.4Bcf at the upper end. The company expects to kick off a multi-well campaign across its fully owned Austrian exploration ADX-AT-I and ADX-AT-II licences as early as the fourth quarter of this year. Permitting, rig contracting, and land access negotiations have begun. Land for two wells is already secured. ADX has identified seven drill-ready prospects and is actively maturing a further four. Of the seven, five sit within the proven Hall Formation, which is a prolific Miocene-age sandstone reservoir that has already delivered more than 230Bcf of cumulative production across 83 fields in the region. ADX's shallow gas initiative was first announced to the market two years ago and has been developed using local know-how combined with the sharp eyes of world-class stratigraphic trap specialists. It sits close to existing pipeline infrastructure. Armed with cutting-edge seismic technology, ADX deployed advanced 3D imaging techniques to pinpoint gas-charged sweet spots hiding in permeable reservoirs. The targets also bear striking similarities to the seismic signatures of proven gas fields already producing across the basin. ADX sees the GOLD cluster targets as the crown jewels in its exploration portfolio. The company's 100 per cent-owned AT-II licence includes three shallow Hall Formation prospects – dubbed GOLD, GRAB and ZAUN – and holds a combined mean resource estimate of 13Bcf, with geological chances of success ranging from 55 per cent to a massive 81 per cent. The GOLD-1 well will be the first cab off the rank and will target two high-confidence gas sands, GOLD A and C, which the company thinks have the highest chances of success at 77 per cent and 81 per cent, respectively. The GOLD wells will be drilled to depths of just 700 metres to 850m using slim-hole designs and mobile carrier rigs, which should enable cost-effective drilling and an uber quick turnaround of as little as nine days per well. ADX says it plans to link any discoveries into cluster developments, tying multiple wells into centralised production hubs to cut capital and running costs and boost output. A dedicated processing facility has already been mapped out, drawing on an initial design capacity of 140,000 cubic metres per day, expandable to 280,000 cubic metres/day for the full cluster development. Beyond the GOLD cluster, the company is targeting two additional prospects, PIC and STEY, also in the ADX-AT-II licence area, which have a mean prospective estimated gas resource of 8.1Bcf and paydirt probabilities of 75 per cent and 68 per cent, respectively. The final two prospects, HOCH and SCHOE, sit in the ADX-AT-1 licence area 50 kilometres to the west of the GOLD cluster and are held in a 50:50 joint venture with industrial giant MND Austria. Although these targets are estimated to hold the biggest combined net mean resource of all the prospects at 14.4Bcf, their probability of coming in is lower at 62 per cent and 51 per cent, respectively. ADX, meanwhile, has opened its data room to farm-in partners, promoting the prospects as a fast-track pathway to gas production in a first-world jurisdiction with existing infrastructure and an underexplored resource base. The company says several groups have already expressed interest, with deals potentially timed to line up with the company's forecast drilling dates. As the company finalises its permits and hones its drill plans, ADX looks well-positioned to convert its shallow gas play into a significant revenue stream exactly when Europe needs it most.

‘They're off': $962m man's look into real estate woes
Alexander Phillips, Australia's top real estate agent for the 10th consecutive year after topping the Real Estate Business (REB) industry website rankings, doesn't have a secret winning approach. He reveals everything about his powerhouse sales method, in appearances on the weekly High Performance industry podcast, for any agent tuning in. Phillips, of Phillips Pantzer Donnelley, and his support staff, topped the latest rankings when securing a $962m annual tally from 196 sales across Sydney's coastal east in 2024. Phillips, with 24 years' experience, first hit the REB list in 2014 when he ranked second with 108 sales yielding $200m. It was to an agent from Toorak. His average price sale has risen over the period from $1.85m to $4.9m in 2024, which compares to an average of $2.89m across the top 50 NSW agents on the CommBank-sponsored list. Phillips also ranks among the quickest agents, selling homes in an average of 21 days, although this rose from 19 days in the prior year. The son of an acclaimed car salesman credits his success to 'good relationships and good processes'. Of course sales success leads to continued momentum. Significantly, while he represents vendors like all agents, Phillips displays an acute sense of buyer placement as soon as a listing comes into view, and then from the innovative photo shoot open house. The ongoing momentum, and self promotion amid the many neighbourhoods of his sales success, ensures he is top of mind when prospective vendors are making their decision. Recent analysis of 35,000 active listing agents across the residential market in 2024 suggests that the top 20 per cent of agents listed more than 60 per cent of all properties. Phillips's nearest challenger, Michael Clarke, had an $871m tally from 221 sales across the harbour at Manly. While they don't compete, the tally reflects a slight narrowing in the gap to $91m for Clarke. Clarke had $814m in 202 sales in 2023 when the gap was $159m. Clarke was also a new entrant in 2014 with 97 sales, yielding a $139m tally. Entry on to the REB list published by Momentum Media is voluntary, and self nominating, with the data overseen by Agile Market Intelligence. Numerous agents have ceased declaring their sales tally, since the reveal will show that they are way behind their perceived rivals. The 45-year-old Phillips wakes weekdays at 4am, has a hot bath, manifests, and trains on gym equipment, before grabbing a coffee and getting to the office by 6am. 'Getting up early gives me two hours where I'm not bothered to plan the day because by 6.30am my phone is ringing,' he recently told the podcast. He's not had a weekday client lunch for a decade. Describing the current market as 'challenging', Phillips notes 'volumes are down, sales are down and agents are off'. 'There's stress out there,' he says.

Penthouse sale serves $1.925 million payday for tennis star Nick Kyrgios
Loading content... Tennis star Nick Kyrgios has offloaded his luxury Sydney penthouse on the eve of its scheduled auction. The three-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment sold on June 13 for $1.925 million with Tristan Oddi and Brandon Shaw of PPD Real Estate. The property in Kensington was marketed with a guide of $1.8 million. Cotality records show the 30-year-old athlete purchased the property in Sydney's Eastern suburbs for $1.6 million in March 2022. The sale follows Canberra-born Kyrgios' split from long-term girlfriend, influencer Costeen Hatzi, 26, earlier this year. The pair dated for four years. Positioned on the top floor of the Capella building, the penthouse boasts wrap-around windows with panoramic views of the city and stretching as far as the Blue Mountains. The property also has a private 24 square metre rooftop garden terrace with a wet bar. Inside, the floor plan comprises a large master suite with an ensuite and two built-in robes, two additional bedrooms, and the main bathroom. The open-plan living space is filled with natural light from the walls of glass. The sleek kitchen features stone benchtops, an island bench with built-in wine storage and Miele appliances. The sale includes two car parking spaces, and owners can access the heated outdoor lap pool and on-site gym. According to Cotality, the median price of a unit in Kensington is $1.06 million. Kyrgios, who celebrated his 30th birthday in April, debuted as a professional tennis player in 2012. He has won seven ATP Tour singles titles and reached 11 finals, including a major final at the 2022 Wimbledon Championships. Kyrgios ruled himself out of competing at Wimbledon this year due to a knee injury, which forced him to abandon a planned return at the French Open last month. On Instagram on June 2, he said: "Just wanted to give everyone a quick update - I've hit a small setback in my recovery and unfortunately won't make it back for grass season this year. "I know how much you've all been looking forward to seeing me out there, and I'm genuinely sorry to disappoint. "This is just a bump in the road, though, and I'm already working hard to get back stronger than ever." Kyrgios has been absent from playing at Wimbledon since losing the 2022 final to Novak Djokovic. A combination of knee, foot and wrist injuries has plagued his playing career. The former world No.13 has played four singles matches this year. He claimed his first tour victory in two-and-a-half years at the Miami Open in March. Although he won't compete at Wimbledon this year, Kyrgios will bring his podcast Good Trouble with Nick Kyrgios to the Wimbledon Theatre in London on June 24. The show will head to New York City's Beacon Theatre in August before coming to Australia for five dates in November, including appearances at the Sydney Opera House and Canberra Theatre Centre. The tour will reportedly feature a "huge surprise guest".
