Elizabeth Bay, Administrative district in eastern Sydney, Australia.

Elizabeth Bay extends along Sydney Harbour, featuring waterfront properties and residential buildings within three kilometers of the central business district.

Alexander Macleay received a 22-hectare land grant in 1828, leading to the construction of Elizabeth Bay House, completed in 1837 by architect John Verge.

The area preserves its Aboriginal heritage through its dual name Elizabeth Bay / Gurrajin, recognizing the original Dharag language designation for this location.

The district contains numerous apartment buildings, parks, and walking paths, serving a population of 4,878 residents as recorded in the 2021 census.

Elizabeth Bay House stands as an example of Regency architecture, accompanied by a heritage-listed grotto that overlooks Sydney Harbour.
