Most Popular in Balmain East
Balmain East (2041) is the narrow tip of the Balmain peninsula, a pocket of Sydney real estate with extraordinary harbour exposure on both sides. The Balmain East ferry wharf connects the suburb directly to the CBD, and the foreshore is dotted with some of Sydney's finest harbour-view homes. It's intimate and unhurried, with a tight-knit community that values its water access and village atmosphere.
The proximity to Sydney Fish Markets at Pyrmont makes Balmain East one of the shortest delivery runs in the entire GetFish network. Seafood is bought at the markets auction, packed in temperature-controlled insulated boxes, and arrives at your Balmain East door within 1–2 business days in pristine condition. The cold chain never breaks — 0–4°C from dispatch to delivery.
Sashimi-grade tuna and salmon are popular in Balmain East, where many residents appreciate the quality equivalent to a good Japanese restaurant. Pre-made seafood platters — loaded with prawns, oysters, and smoked salmon — are ideal for entertaining on harbour-view decks. Free delivery on orders over $120; $25 flat rate otherwise.
