About the host

Hosted by Lisa Marsh

Host profile image

I’m a mum of two daughters, a very proud grandma of two, an animal lover and someone who loves travelling and spending time with family.

Having travelled extensively myself, I really appreciate the difference a beautiful, comfortable and thoughtfully prepared home can make to a trip. I love creating spaces where guests can arrive, immediately feel at home and have everything they need for a relaxed and enjoyable stay.

I’m naturally very organised (and admittedly a bit of a neat freak!), so cleanliness, presentation and attention to detail are important to me. I’m also a responsive and caring host and want guests to know that if they need something during their stay, help is never far away.

When I’m not working or travelling, I love being outdoors, spending time at the beach, enjoying warm weather and being around animals — although I’m equally happy heading to the snow for a snowboarding trip.

For me, hosting is about more than providing somewhere to sleep. I want our guests to enjoy the home, feel comfortable and cared for, and leave having had a genuinely great experience.

Why they chose this property

We love Yarraville for its unique village atmosphere and the feeling of being part of a genuine neighbourhood while still being incredibly close to Melbourne CBD.

Just a short walk from Maggie House is Yarraville Village, with its wonderful cafés, restaurants, wine bars, boutique shops and the iconic Sun Theatre. It’s the kind of neighbourhood where you can leave the car at home, wander out for morning coffee, enjoy lunch or dinner and explore everything on foot.

Yarraville has a relaxed, friendly feel with beautiful period homes, leafy streets and plenty of parks and green spaces. The train station is conveniently located in the village, making trips into Melbourne CBD quick and easy.

We also love being so close to Williamstown and the bay, giving guests easy access to the waterfront, beaches, restaurants and walking trails.

For us, Yarraville offers the best of both worlds — the character and relaxed lifestyle of a village neighbourhood with all the excitement of Melbourne just minutes away.

What makes this property unique

Maggie House offers something increasingly hard to find so close to Melbourne, the space and privacy of an entire character home, just a short stroll from the heart of Yarraville Village.

The beautifully renovated period home is light-filled, spacious and designed for comfortable, relaxed living. With three bedrooms plus a separate outdoor studio, there’s plenty of room for families, groups of friends or guests needing a dedicated space to work during their stay.

Two king bedrooms and a twin room provide flexible accommodation, while the separate studio includes a king-single sofa bed, Smart TV and dedicated workspace.

One of our favourite features is the seamless indoor-outdoor living. Open the doors from the main living area onto the private alfresco space and enjoy breakfast, a quiet coffee or an evening meal outside.

Guests also enjoy a fully equipped kitchen, laundry facilities, heating and cooling throughout, Smart TVs and complimentary parking.

What really makes Maggie House special, though, is its combination of space, privacy and location. You can settle into a genuine Melbourne home, walk to Yarraville’s cafés, restaurants, boutiques and train station, and still have Melbourne CBD within easy reach.

It’s a home designed to be lived in and enjoyed — whether you’re visiting for a weekend, spending time with family, working in Melbourne or settling in for a longer stay.
