Some addresses are admired. Others are whispered about. And then there’s the Finger Wharf at Woolloomooloo – a location so stitched into Sydney’s harbour identity that living here feels less like having an address and more like claiming a position on the water itself. It’s where the city’s energy meets the rhythm of the harbour. Where dinner plans start with Otto or China Doll and finish with a slow stroll home under fairy lights reflected on the water.

And tucked into the north-west corner of this celebrated heritage structure is Apartment 222 – a home that doesn’t just face the harbour but appears to float above it.

The feeling of arrival

Stepping into this apartment is a little like stepping aboard a luxury vessel: calm, intimate, and spectacularly focused on one thing – the view.

Walls of glass open to an unbroken panorama stretching across the water, capturing the ever-shifting theatre of boats gliding past, sun dappling the bay, and the city skyline lifting proudly just beyond. The sheltered entertainer’s deck extends outward like a captain’s lookout, inviting morning coffees, long lunches, and twilight evenings that blur into night.

But look inward and you’ll find something equally compelling.

Reimagined by an architectural great

Renowned architect Alec Tzannes approached the redesign of this three-bedroom residence with one guiding principle: flexibility without compromise.

Original warehouse textures are subtly retained – grounding the sense of place – while contemporary craftsmanship elevates each space with clarity and calm. Pocket doors slide away to shape the layout as needed: open and flowing when entertaining, private and intimate when retreating.

The master suite is its own sanctuary – a private wing with dressing room and ensuite – while the entertainer’s kitchen is all stone surfaces and European appliances, perfectly poised for both everyday rituals and celebratory moments.

Every detail has purpose: ambient lighting, custom cabinetry, ducted air, and external louvres to shape light and privacy. It’s refined luxury not for show, but for living.

A life outside ordinary boundaries

At Finger Wharf, your day expands effortlessly. Start with a gym session or swim at the exclusive Hotel Ovolo health club. Wander along the boardwalk for coffee. Meet friends for lunch waterside. When the evening calls, the city is just a short stroll through the Domain – though many who live here find they don’t feel the need to leave.

And when you do head out, double security parking with lift access ensures the ease matches the beauty.

An address held quietly, yet proudly

Homes here rarely change hands – and for good reason. The Wharf Apartments aren’t just heritage architecture or prestige living; they offer a lifestyle that feels both effortless and deeply special.

Apartment 222 brings that lifestyle to life – with scale, craftsmanship, and a sense of calm suspended over the harbour.

This is more than waterfront living.

This is a super-yacht state of mind – without ever leaving home.
