Boutique Apartments Sydney

Boutique apartments (under 12 units) in Paddington, Woollahra, and Mosman command 15-30% premiums over high-rise equivalents, with buyers valuing architectural character, community intimacy, and lower strata fees ($1,500-$3,000 vs $4,000-$8,000).

Small buildings deliver 95% resident satisfaction versus 70% in high-rise towers, driven by stronger community connections, less transience, and owner-occupier majorities (70-85%) creating stable, family-friendly environments.

Heritage boutique buildings in Potts Point, Darlinghurst, and Glebe achieve 10-15% annual capital growth, with buyers seeking character, scarcity (planning controls limit new supply), and human-scale living in tightly held inner-city precincts.
