Summary:
Truly experience Sydney in this beautifully renovated 1860’s terrace in Sydney’s iconic harbourside district, it’s the perfect base to explore Sydney’s Rocks, Walsh Bay, Circular Quay, local theatres and waterfront eateries.

The Space:
This heritage listed property is an opportunity for you to experience the best of Sydney while enjoying a slice of history. With views of Sydney Harbour from top floor windows and The Rocks a short stroll away, it’s arguably one of the best locations in the city, yet is just removed enough from the hustle and bustle of the tourist traps to enjoy some peace and quiet.

The interiors are beautifully decorated with modernity juxtaposed against original exposed brick walls. The terrace is a classic layout: enter from the street and follow the warm timber flooring through to the back to discover all its appeal.

Downstairs there are two living areas: a warm media room and the open-plan lounge/dining, separated by the stunning kitchen. With all your comfort and convenience in mind, the kitchen is fully equipped to cook up a storm, and includes a dishwasher, microwave and coffee machine. Enjoy a pre-dinner drink out on the sun-drenched patio, surrounded by greenery, then dine in style at the suite that seats at least 6, before retiring to relax in front of a movie.

Upstairs on the ground floor is a delightful library and sunroom with views of the surrounding area, perfect for finding some peace and quiet or to get some work done if you must! The two single beds are also on this floor. On the first floor, the luxurious large bedroom is also on this level, decorated in a sumptuous style with views to the city and Barangaroo. The family bathroom includes a walk in shower, a toilet and vanity.

The top floor has window views of the harbour are a lovely inclusion and cement the feeling of really being in the heart of Sydney with everything on your doorstep. A double bed and walk in shower creates a separate space for you.

A powder room downstairs, a washing machine and dryer and heating/air-conditioning all help to ensure your comfort in this welcoming home.

Although there is no car spot, you truly won’t need a car in this property; it’s so accessible by public transport and you can walk to so many Sydney attractions nearby.

What we feel you should know (Home truths):

- Plan ahead if you are driving, there are sites such as parkhound where you can rent a car space.
- It is a home with multiple levels so there are stairs throughout the home.
- It is an older home though has been renovated
- It isn't a property for long hot showers, please be aware that long showers will drain the hot water tank quickly.

Guest Access:
You will have access to the entire property during your stay.

The Neighborhood:
Location is the name of the game with this property. Opposite Observatory Hill, and only 5 minutes’ walk to The Rocks Market (held at the weekends) or less than 10 minutes to the ferries (and trains) at Circular Quay, it's in an absolutely prime position.

Head down to Walsh Bay and enjoy a Sydney Theatre Company production at The Wharf or a show at Roslyn Packer Theatre. Dinner at Ventuno might seal the deal!

Alternatively, drinks on the roof at the Harbour View Hotel might be a highlight, try the Palisade for a delicious dinner or head down to Campbell Cove for a choice of eateries. The iconic Quay restaurant is only 8 minutes walk and well worth a visit.

The Museum of Contemporary Art, Barangaroo, Bridgeclimb, high end shopping… the list of local attractions goes on. You’re likely to want to extend your visit just so you can experience it all! But know that when you get ‘home’ at the end of the day you’ll enjoy the sanctuary this property provides. It’s a win-win!

1. No Party/event - This property has a Minut Smart Home device which monitors noise levels to ensure our neighbours are respected and the property is looked after. There is a strict no party, no loud music at night, no antisocial behaviour and no more in the property than what you have booked for. Immediate cancellation of reservation may occur with no refund for the remaining stay with costs passed on to you for security.

2. Check in - We have in person check ins at all our properties that we host. We manage the property on behalf of the owner and as part of our contract with them we don’t have a self check in option. For check in, the person that booked must be the person that checks in (exceptions made for a corporate booking or insurance company). We reserve the right to ask all guests for ID and we will complete a form at check in.

a. Late check in – as our check ins are in person we can meet you at any time between 3-9pm at the property. We can meet you later than this and any check in after 9pm is $60 and after midnight $100, this amount is passed to the person meeting you due to their extra expenses later at night.
b. Early Check in – We can sometimes offer an early check in however will only be able to confirm in the day or two before your check in. To provide an early check in we will add another cleaner or use a different cleaning company to ensure it is ready for an earlier time (the fee we have for early check in varies between weekday and weekend and is between $50-100). We unfortunately don’t have a bag storage option at this property.
c. Nominated Check in time - We understand that travel plans can sometimes change. However, it's appreciated that you are punctual for the time you've nominated.

3. Late Check out – We ask that you let us know at least 48 hours before your check out if you wish to have a late one, this will ensure we can reschedule cleaning and if necessary maintenance. Late check out for us depends on if someone else is checking in the same day and also on the cleaning company’s schedule that we use. Please do not leave bags later than 10am as we use an external cleaning company and some building managers are very strict so may remove anything left in common areas.
