About this property

Private, spacious & sun-filled, designed with your comfort in mind

Welcome to Maggie House. Private, spacious & sun-filled, our freshly renovated home combines traditional period charm with modern styling.

Designed with your comfort in mind, we invite you to sleep in, snuggle on the couch or relax with a freshly brewed coffee on the outdoor deck.

Drop your bags & stroll to Yarraville Village, explore the cafes, parks & boutiques or catch the 9 minute train to the CBD- you are in the perfect location to explore this historical village & its surrounds.

The natural light, modern styling, generous sized rooms and polished timber floorboards throughout make Maggie House a beautiful space to just stop, relax and enjoy time with family, friends or to work in peace.

The three bedroom + adjoining outdoor studio is ideal for up to seven guests and has been designed for effortless and comfortable living, long sleep-ins and absolute relaxation.

The full kitchen, complete with a one touch Nespresso coffee machine, makes meal preparation a breeze- but with so many amazing cafe’s and restaurants on your doorstep you will be tempted to head out or order in.

Spend the afternoon lounging around, enjoying the complimentary Foxtel including Disney+, or enjoying the sunshine in the alfresco area. Just open the sliding doors to create a seamless transition between inside and out.

If you’re ready for a night out, a 400m walk through Yarraville Village will lead you to the station where you can catch a bus or train directly to Melbourne CBD or to enjoy the Esplanade at Williamstown. Plus, we offer free parking so you can bring your car and explore all this historic area and it’s surrounds have to offer.

You will have the entire place to yourselves, so enjoy it. We have set it up with you in mind and hope to surprise you with a few additional luxuries along the way.

This is a beautiful, modern, spacious and comfortable single-storey house that was perfect for our young family to visit and explore Melbourne. The backyard was great for the kids to play in, and kitchen was perfect for some light cooking. Hanna the host was super helpful and responsive when we faced some trouble with the dishwasher. The location was also fantastic, being close to the expressways and a short walk to shops, grocery stores, restaurants and cafes. Our favourite was Coracle -- best coffee and food in our entire trip!

NYE at the Maggie House

We absolutely loved our stay! The location was central and was a quick drive to the NYE firework lookout. The house had everything we needed from essentials to thoughtful touches, which made our stay memorable. The handbook had all the information we needed which was super useful. Highly recommend this house, the neighbour hood was quite and we felt secure.

There wasn’t a BBQ as advertised, host acknowledged the advert was incorrect, but wasn’t helpful in resolving, they said it was Vrbo mistake and we need to discuss with them as they would not provide one. Vrbo was no use either, they confirmed advert says has a BBQ but said host is not willing to provide one. Gave time to resolve, but as was no resolution, we rejected the property as it was not as advertised and found alternative accommodation. We currently have an ongoing claim for a full refund.Also the property wasn’t cleaned properly, there was dead flies near doors, microwave was not clean, the towels and bed linen was very poor quality.

Response from VrboOwner on 13 Jan, 2026
Thank you for your feedback. We’d like to clarify a few key points for future guests. The property does not have a BBQ and has never been listed by us as having one. A BBQ appeared on the guest-facing Vrbo platform due to an error on the booking agent’s side. This was acknowledged by Vrbo, who advised that any resolution or compensation must be handled directly by them, as hosts are not permitted to offer refunds or compensation outside the platform. During this process, the guest requested that a BBQ be purchased, delivered, and assembled by 11am on Christmas Eve, which was not feasible given the timing. This appears to have been a key source of frustration and has resulted in comments that feel disproportionate to the issue. The property was professionally cleaned prior to arrival. A single fly near a door can occur between cleaning and check-in, particularly in summer. Comments regarding poor-quality linen and towels do not reflect the standard of the property. All linen and towels are high quality and frequently praised. We have over 100 five-star reviews highlighting cleanliness and comfort. The guest chose to depart early. Any refund claim is being handled solely through Vrbo, as advised. We remain committed to providing an accurately represented, well-maintained, and comfortable property and encourage guests to contact us with any questions prior to booking.

Lovely house in a wonderful area

We arrived very late, but accessing the house was very easy - inside the house was very clean and there were some nice touches by the host to make the stay very welcome. Needed some more towels the next day, and host provided these very quickly - very responsive to text messages. The house immediately felt like home and we were very relaxed there. Train to center of Melbourne is only 5 minutes walk away, as is center of Yarraville where there are plenty of good restaurants, 2 small grocery shops and some bars. My family and I all agreed we would go back if the opportunity arose again.

Beautifully presented property in a quiet but handy location.

This property is situated in a quiet cul-de-sac within a block or so of the Yarraville shopping center and a good variety of restaurants. The station is also within 5 minutes walk. The property is presented as listed and is set in very attractive surroundings. The three bedrooms are spacious as is the kitchen and living area. The one and a half bathroom setup and laundry facilities worked very well for us. There is also an outside office linked by a shady outdoor area. Everything is well maintained and the kitchen contains everything anyone could want. Beds were very comfortable and bedrooms airconditioned. The owners have stocked the house with very thoughtful, quality items and have ensured that any guest will have a great experience. We all greatly enjoyed our stay and commend this property to others.

Cosy house in a quiet street with everything you need.

This property was perfect for my friends and I to unwind and relax. There was very thoughtful touches by the host along the way that took our stay to the next level. Generous bedrooms with comfy beds, good water pressure in the shower, a beautiful deep bathtub to relax in. We enjoyed laying outside on the grass and soaking up the sun. The kitchen has all amenities that you might need and was extremely clean. We weren’t sure how to turn the oven on so we texted the host who replied within minutes to provide us with instructions. She also let us know she would arrange for someone to come and fix the oven if we were still unable to get it working. I was very impressed. The location of the property was fantastic, a 5 minute walk away from many cafes, pubs, restaurants and grocery stores. 10/10 I would be very happy to stay here again.
