About Millers Point

Millers Point is one of Sydney's oldest and most historically significant neighbourhoods, located on the western edge of the CBD adjacent to The Rocks, Walsh Bay, and Darling Harbour. Covering just 0.25 square kilometres, it is home to around 1,735 residents and is densely packed with State Heritage-listed buildings dating back to colonial Sydney. The suburb sits at the base of the Sydney Harbour Bridge approach and offers stunning views of the harbour, making it one of the most scenically distinctive inner-city addresses in Australia.

Millers Point has a sophisticated and artsy character, with a mix of long-term community housing tenants, professionals, and creative types drawn by the neighbourhood's unique charm. The area is dotted with historic pubs like the Hero of Waterloo and the Lord Nelson, sandstone laneways, and the vibrant Walsh Bay arts precinct including Bangarra Dance Theatre and the Sydney Theatre Company. Residents enjoy world-class dining, easy access to Barangaroo waterfront parklands, and excellent walkability to the CBD and Circular Quay.

Millers Point falls under postcode 2000 and is governed by Sydney Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Sydney electorate.
