It's at the Network Boundary Point (NBP), which varies from premises to premises.
Free-standing houses that are more than 5-10 years old, it'll probably be the first socket.
For newer houses, there's a NBP that's either on the side of the house, or near the edge of the property.
For Strata / Multiple-Dwelling Properties, it may be a Distribution Frame.
Way back in the 90s, before Telecom Australia became Telstra, the ownership of all the internal wiring (defined as anything from the NBP onwards) was transferred to the owner of the premises. This was part of the competition stuff - allowing competitive bids on builds for wiring new premises, business, etc.
