Before you buy
Woollahra Council's residential rules treat Point Piper as its own precinct, with land zoned R2 low density and R3 medium density. For houses, the rules ask development to provide view sharing from public spaces and private properties, and ask buildings to step down the site. Read chapter B1 of the council's development rules before you plan works.
Point Piper is not among the suburbs Woollahra Council names for its neighbourhood conservation areas. Dunara Reserve, Point Piper, has been a local heritage item since May 2019.
