The Neighborhood:
We're situated on Altona St, Kensington with JJ Holland park just across the street & the Venny located only a 4min walk away from us where you can bring your kids for a lil' adventure.

We're only a short 5min drive or 20min walk to Flemington Racecourse.

Only a 15min train ride to Melbourne CBD area via South Kensington Station which is only 3min walk away from us.

There's an indoor heated pool & gym located in Kensington Community & Recreation Centre just a 3min walk away.

I've included most of my favourite places and more in my extensive "Local Recommendations Guidebook" on this listings page, so please feel free to check em' out for awesome things to do and eat in Kensington.

Getting Around:
We're only a 3min walk from SOUTH KENSINGTON STATION so getting around is not going to be a problem at all.

If you drive, we do have 1 FREE parking slot available for you.

If you plan on taking the train, Myki is the card you will need for all public transportation. When using a Myki card, please remember to always have sufficient value for your journey as hefty on the spot fines apply if you travel without correct fare or do not "tap on." Trips are about $3.80 for a 2-hour journey, but it all depends on what zones you travel in, if you are a concession card holder and if you buy a day pass.

Myki cards can be topped up at any 7-11 Stores (7-Eleven Flemington, Boundary &, Racecourse Rd, Flemington VIC 3031) or at many other shops that display the MYKI logo. MYKI machines are located at major tram stops, train stations and at convenience stores and news agents. Please be aware that cards can't be topped up on trams or trains any longer.

Other Things to Note:
This is a private home ALL TO YOURSELF and you WON'T be sharing this with any strangers during your stay.

This pad accommodates 4 adults generously but a max of 6 overnight. Any more than 4 adult guests overnight will attract an extra AU$14 per night, per additional guest.

The sleeping arrangement for the 5th and 6th adult would be on a 3-seater sofa bed which folds out to a double with extra quilts, pillows, sheets & covers.

The 3-seater sofa bed measurements:
- Width: 200cm
- Depth: 85cm
- Height: 80cm
- Seat depth: 70cm
- Seat height: 45cm
- Bed width: 140cm
- Bed length: 200cm

Please do let us know before hand if you would like us to pre-make the sofa-bed prior to your arrival.

Interaction with Guests:
I only interact with guests via AirBnb, What'sApp, Email, SMS or Mobile when necessary. Rest assured, my response time is pretty much instant.

I will not be present at this property during your stay.

A representative will hand you the keys in person to check you in.

The apartment unit will be vacant (Furnished of course along with the amenities) and it's a private self-contained fully serviced home ALL TO YOURSELF. You WON'T be sharing it with any strangers during your stay.

Please refer to my calendar for availability.

If your preferred dates are available, please feel free to book 'em. If the dates that you're after are blocked, they are most likely taken.

"EASY-TO-FOLLOW" directions to access the apartment unit & FREE Parking will be provided once your booking is made.
