Woolooware homes near the bay

Woolooware lies between Caringbah and Cronulla and meets Woolooware Bay. In the 2021 Census about 44 per cent of occupied homes were separate houses and close to two in five were flats or apartments.

Woolooware Station is on the T4 line, the last stop before Cronulla. With a station, a local centre and a bay frontage in a small area, Woolooware lots can differ a lot from one street to the next, which is why we look at the planning maps for your exact address before talking about design.
