What We Love
Elegantly industrial, this spacious home welcomes you to relax in your own private oasis. Sunny courtyard views spill light across the exposed wood, polished concrete, and exposed beams that fill this home with urban charm. A hidden gem, this 3-bedroom 2-bathroom home is the perfect city escape.
Edgy black walls and atmospheric polished concrete floors lead to the large open-plan living and dining area, where the industrial finish of this 2-storey home is softened by the natural views of your private sunny courtyard garden. Boasting two seating areas centred around a stunning frangipani tree, this is the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee or a few sundowners on a warm afternoon after a long day of exploring!
The main living space is equally inviting, with a casual breakfast bar separating the full kitchen from the comfy couch - a great place to settle in and enjoy your favourite book or movie. Two bedrooms are upstairs, with the final bedroom completing the ground floor. All rooms have plenty of storage. The master bedroom boasts concertina doors that open onto a generous, semi-enclosed balcony overlooking your courtyard. There is also a separate study available for those who are travelling for work and play.
If you venture out of your city escape, you will find some of Sydney’s finest attractions right at your fingertips. A plethora of divine restaurants can be explored on Glebe Point Road. Foodies will delight at the fresh seafood available at the Sydney Fish Markets, and the beautiful Blackwattle Bay is an ideal picnic spot just moments away.

The neighbourhood
- If there is one place you must visit its Tramsheds - Originally a tramway depot built in 1904, this has become a local hotspot for fantastic restaurants, local retailers and a weekly growers market every Sunday. Be sure to check their website for other events happening around the time of your stay!
- A gorgeous walk is the foreshore walk around to Jubilee park - perfect for an afternoon picnic.
- As the light draws in, head to the Different Drummer, a hole-in-the-wall style bar, dimly lit, down to earth and open until 2 am. For a more upscale dining experience check out No.92 wine, serving great wine in a gorgeous 19th-century ’home-style’ restaurant.
- Powerhouse museum and Australian Maritime Museum are about a 20-minute walk, or you can catch the light rail.
There are great public transport links around this property, and you’re welcome to bring your own car. If you don’t have a car we recommend a car-sharing app such as Uber.
Home Truths
- Small cars fit in the car space. No SUV’s or large cars. It’s a tighter than usual squeeze and comfortably fits a small car.
- One of the bedrooms is off the entrance hallway in the front room of the property. There is a door to block off the hallway for privacy, however, the bedroom is still visible from when you enter the front door.
- We have added a privacy blind to the front room, however, there is a minor gap that we’re working on closing for full privacy.
- Soundproofing on windows and doors.
- There are fish in the backyard that we will feed monthly.
- The front steps are quite steep, and the top step is especially high, which may be difficult for guests with limited mobility or anyone carrying luggage.

About the area
Sydney, Australia's iconic city, is a dazzling blend of natural beauty and cosmopolitan flair that beckons travelers from around the globe. Framed by the world-famous Sydney Harbour, this city is not just a feast for the eyes but also a hub of culture, cuisine, and adventure.
The Sydney Opera House, with its distinctive sail-like design, is the jewel in the city's crown. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is not only an architectural masterpiece but also a vibrant performing arts venue. Nearby, the Sydney Harbour Bridge stands as another engineering marvel, offering the adventurous the chance to climb to its summit for unrivaled panoramic views.
Sydney's natural charms are equally compelling. The city is flanked by a string of golden beaches, with Bondi Beach being the most celebrated. Here, visitors can surf the waves, bask in the sun, or enjoy the coastal walk to Coogee Beach, which offers stunning ocean vistas and inviting spots for a refreshing swim.
For those who appreciate green spaces, the Royal Botanic Garden Sydney provides a tranquil escape in the heart of the city. It's a place where one can wander through themed gardens, view exotic plants, and enjoy the Sydney skyline from a different perspective.
The city's cultural tapestry is rich and diverse, with neighborhoods like The Rocks offering a glimpse into Sydney's colonial past through its cobbled streets and historic buildings. Meanwhile, the Museum of Contemporary Art and the Art Gallery of New South Wales cater to art aficionados with their impressive collections.
Sydney's dining scene is a reflection of its multicultural population, with a smorgasbord of cuisines to sample. From waterfront restaurants serving fresh seafood to trendy cafes and bars in districts like Surry Hills and Newtown, there's something to satisfy every palate.
For those looking to explore beyond the cityscape, the nearby Blue Mountains offer a natural playground of rugged peaks, lush forests, and cascading waterfalls, perfect for hiking and wildlife spotting.
In essence, Sydney is a city that offers an alluring mix of natural wonders, urban excitement, and laid-back beach culture. It's a place where every traveler can find their own perfect experience, whether it's soaking up the sun, enjoying world-class entertainment, or delving into the vibrant street life.
