That’s well above Pyrmont’s apartment median of $1,168,750 for the June 2018 quarter, with the suburb generally performing well, up 12.6 per cent year on year, according to Domain.
While it’s an extraordinary price for a one-bedroom apartment, it’s certainly not the most that’s been forked out for a one-bedroom apartment in Sydney.
A one-bedder overlooking Bondi Beach scored $2.86 million in February, setting a price record along the way.

The agent behind the $2.86 million sale said the lack of similar properties was a factor in the apartment’s sale price.
He said there had been a lot of interest in the property, although the market had “probably shifted a little bit since then”.
Elsewhere across the city there has been a handful of one-bedroom properties selling above $2 million this year.
