Before you buy
Mosman Council lists around 500 heritage items and 13 heritage conservation areas across its area, among them The Crescent, Military Road, Raglan Street and Upper Avenue Road. Ask the council whether the address is in one before you plan works.
The Mosman Local Environmental Plan limits what can be built in its foreshore area, and one of its stated aims there is to protect dwellings from potential sea level rise. Check whether the address is in the foreshore area.

At the 2021 Census, 52.0% of Mosman homes were flats or apartments, 34.9% were separate houses and 12.0% were semi-detached or townhouses.

Why a buyers agent

Mosman Council lists 13 heritage conservation areas. An agent checks whether the address is in one before you bid.
The council's plan limits building in its foreshore area. An agent checks whether the home falls inside it.
