Locality Guide
Castlecrag
Castlecrag is a small and exclusive Lower North Shore suburb overlooking Sailors Bay, Crag Cove and Middle Harbour, with rugged bush reserves and an 'away-from-it-all' air of tranquility. Renowned American architect Walter Burley Griffin actually planned the suburb as an exclusive enclave.
Yet Castlecrag is barely 10 minutes by Harbour Bridge or Tunnel to the CBD and inner Sydney's bustle, making it one of the city's most sought-after addresses.
