Painters Balmain

Balmain is hailed as the home to several industries particularly for coal mines, engineering, shipbuilding, soap factories, metal foundries and boiler making. This granted the place with a rich industrial background.

Located at the west part of Sydney CBD, you can reach this suburb for about 5 to 10 minutes as it is only 6 km away from the inner city. A lovely peninsula of its own that’s jutting into Sydney Harbour, it has a unique distinction from the surrounding suburbs of Iron Cove, Mort Bay, Birchgrove, Rozelle and White Bay.

Once there are tiny cottages around the area as they are purposely built and rented for the workers of the different industries. However, as of present day, they are restored with high regard for Balmain’s heritage. The place now enjoys a new and grander life that can be experienced by a wide cross-section of people. Whether it is the locals, local enterprises or tourists who visited the area, they are undoubtedly charmed by Balmain. If you’re visiting the place for the first time, all you have to do is head to the Darling Street and you can fully enjoy everything it has to offer. There are restaurants, cafes, pubs, boutiques, homewares and other shops that sell organic produce. It is also dotted with banks, real estate agents, doctors, and antique shops.  Every hot spot of the place can be accessible by buses so you don’t have to worry about taking pleasure of exploring this suburb.
