12/2 Beattie Street is a unit situated on a land parcel of 774 m². It is part of the residential fabric of Balmain.
Balmain lies approximately two kilometres (about 1¼ miles) west of the Sydney CBD, placing the unit within a short commute to the city centre.
The area is served by several ferry wharves, including Thames Street and Balmain East, with services to Circular Quay. Bus routes 433, 441, 442 and 445 also run through Balmain, and Beattie Street connects to the main road network feeding Victoria Road and the Western Distributor.
Darling Street, the suburb’s main commercial strip, is just 0.1 km away and offers boutique shops, cafés and restaurants. Heritage sites such as the Balmain Working Mens Institute (0.2 km) and the former Kent Hotel (0.2 km) are also nearby.
White Bay Park is about 0.5 km away, providing waterfront recreation. Issy Wyner Reserve is even nearer at roughly 0.2 km, offering a convenient green space for residents.
Balmain began as an industrial hub on the peninsula, hosting shipbuilding, metal foundries and Mort’s Dock in the 19th century. From the 1960s onward the suburb has been gentrified, becoming an affluent, heritage‑rich neighbourhood while retaining elements of its working‑class roots.
The Balmain Working Mens Institute (0.2 km) and the Balmain Hospital Main Building (0.2 km) are heritage‑listed landmarks within walking distance of the property.
