106/13 Bennett Street, Mortlake

Private courtyard. Riverside village. Ferry at the end of the street. Set inside the Trinity building in Mortlake's Majors Bay riverside precinct, Apartment 106/13 Bennett Street offers something most ground-floor rentals can't: a wide, fully tiled, sheltered courtyard with its own private entry. Aluminium privacy screens enclose it on the street side, so it functions less like a balcony and more like a private outdoor room. Long lunches, morning coffees, working in the sun, somewhere the dog can stretch out. Inside, timber floors run through an open-plan living and dining area that flows directly out to the courtyard. The kitchen is finished in stone with stainless steel European appliances and full storage. The king-sized bedroom carries mirrored built-in wardrobes, the bathroom is fully tiled with quality fixtures, and there's a tucked-away internal laundry. Air conditioning keeps it comfortable year-round, and the apartment includes Chubb back-to-base security, intercom, secure basement parking with lift access, and a separate storage cage. The real upside is the precinct itself. The Majors Bay community runs around a central piazza that hosts weekly markets and community events, opens onto a 3,000sqm public park, and connects to foreshore walking and cycle paths along the Parramatta River. There's a jetty for kayaks and small boats, on-site cafes, and landscaped gardens with communal BBQs between the buildings. It's the kind of address where you don't have to leave to feel like you've gone out. When you do leave, Cabarita Wharf is a short walk away with a direct ferry to Barangaroo Wharf 1 every 20 minutes. Bus routes connect to Burwood, Strathfield and the city, and you're within easy drive of Concord West and North Strathfield stations, the Bay Run, and Majors Bay Road's cafes and restaurants in Concord.
