30 Hilma StreetCollaroy Plateau NSW 2097

Buy this for the combination of a renovated four-bedroom family home, generous covered entertaining, pool and spa, and an elevated ocean outlook in a convenient Plateau street. The price restraint is equally specific: all bedrooms are upstairs, one is notably narrow, the views look across neighbouring rooftops, and several completed sales offer more accommodation or a more ambitious architectural package for similar money.

The current plan shows four enclosed bedrooms, all on the first floor, rather than a main house plus a flat. The master is labelled about 3.8 by 4.2 metres, with walk-in wardrobe, ensuite and access to the front covered balcony. Bedrooms three and four are approximately 3.0 by 3.5 metres and 3.6 by 3.6 metres. Bedroom two is long but only 2.4 metres wide, despite its 5.5-metre length. Test an actual bed, desk and clear circulation; floor area alone disguises the compromise.

No. 7 sold for $4.825 million on 2 May 2025. Both individual major-portal sale records support that result. Its approximately 695.6m² advertised holding was only modestly larger than the subject, making this a much more useful comparison than a suburb median. It combined the same essential attractions—substantial family accommodation, pool, entertaining and ocean views—in the same street.

111 Essilia sold for $4.425 million on 15 May 2026. Its selling agency, property histories and sold listings support the price. The smaller approximately 480m² block is the clearest reason it is not an equal substitute for Hilma's land and outlook. It is nevertheless a strong alternative for a buyer primarily seeking a finished family home rather than the largest block.

No. 33 sold for $5.35 million on 20 September 2025, on approximately 714m². The price is published on Domain and supported by property histories, while its selling agency withholds the result. It is a persuasive upper comparison because the pool, outdoor kitchen, ocean outlook and renovated high-end family setting overlap with the subject's attractions.

No. 28 sold for $3.85 million on 28 September 2024, with about 677m², four bedrooms and three bathrooms. The individual sale advertising describes a newly renovated home with vaulted ceilings, open-plan living, a pool and ocean views. This is an important counterweight to the claim that a similar block and coastal renovation alone must command the present guide.

These bands are buyer judgements before acquisition costs, assuming satisfactory title, approvals and underlying condition.

The current $5 million auction guide is $350,000 above our central assessment and just above the working range. Earlier material advertised $6 million; a later $1 million guide reduction is a campaign change, not evidence that a particular offer failed or that the vendor must sell. An AVM based on an old bedroom configuration and a high current AVM point in very different directions. Completed sales and the actual plan deserve greater weight than either automated number.

The closest useful small retail cluster is around Telopea Street and Aubreen Street, rather than the larger Veterans Parade village. Time 4 Thai confirms its address at 3/23 Telopea Street, approximately 280 metres straight-line from the home; Collaroy Plateau Cellars is at 55A Telopea Street nearby. This is useful for a takeaway or small specialist errand. It should not be confused with a full supermarket centre, and the actual walk follows streets around the school precinct.

Plateau Family Medicine at 52 Veterans Parade is approximately one kilometre straight-line away, close to the village shops. NSW Health's service listing and the practice's booking information identify it as a local general practice. Collaroy Medical Centre at 1030–1034 Pittwater Road offers another GP option in the coastal strip, approximately 890 metres straight-line away. Its own service page confirms management of acute and chronic conditions, vaccinations, health assessments and minor procedures. It is a different service from a hospital emergency department. Neither practice's proximity establishes appointment availability, acceptance of a new patient or a fee entitlement for every consultation.

The official address-based School Finder query places 30 Hilma Street in Collaroy Plateau Public School's K–6 intake area and NBSC Cromer Campus's Years 7–12 intake area. Fresh queries on 3 November 2026 returned those schools for both 2026 and 2027. The 2027 primary result is marked future, while the secondary result is not. This is particularly useful because the public school's broader information notes intake-boundary changes; a suburb name or neighbouring property's portal label is not enough.

Transport for NSW confirms route 180 between Collaroy Plateau and Warringah Mall, including stops around Hilma Street/Telopea Street, Collaroy Plateau Public School and Plateau Road at Hilma Street. It runs through the local network to Dee Why and Brookvale. The exact direction matters: return services use a different sequence around parts of the Plateau. This is a useful direct connection for shopping or onward travel, without guaranteeing a frequent service at every hour.

Collaroy Plateau Park, also called Vic Huxley Oval, is the most useful nearby larger recreation destination around Aubreen, Telopea and Blandford streets. Council confirms a playground, lit sportsfields, tennis court, cricket nets, picnic facilities, netball hoops and toilets, with the youth and community centre at its southern end. The Telopea approach is in the same local precinct as the shops, a several-hundred-metre neighbourhood outing rather than a drive to the beachfront. The actual entrance and facility chosen change the distance; booked sport, evening lighting and event parking also change the experience.
