Cremorne Suburb Profile
The laid-back vibe of Cremorne seems worlds away from the bustle of Sydney’s CBD, which is only a hop across the Harbour Bridge. Living in Cremorne means commuters can leave their working day behind them as they arrive by bus at Cremorne Junction or by ferry at Cremorne Point. Cremorne Junction offers a choice of funky cafés, mouth-watering multicultural cuisines, and drinking establishments that surround the iconic Orpheum Cinema. Steps away from the buzzy junction, you will find quiet streets with family homes and many parks for young families to explore.
Rest on a park bench or lay out a picnic rug in the leafy parklands that line the waterfront around Cremorne Point and Willoughby Bay, soaking up the magnificent views of Sydney Harbour. Cremorne Reserve extends approximately 3 km around the Cremorne Point peninsula, with a foreshore walk that links two ferry wharfs, providing direct access to Circular Quay. The beloved local 1920s-inspired harbourside pool, with sunbathing decks at one end of the reserve and Robertson Point at the other, is a popular spot to watch the fireworks during the festive season. Year-round, living in Cremorne offers great opportunities for a stroll or a heart-pumping run.
The quieter Primrose Park, situated along Willoughby Bay, is a bushland reserve that boasts a mix of sporting and recreational facilities and a playground that has a simulated road system for young bicycle riders to navigate.
