The Space:
This alluring and pristine two-bedroom end terrace home is in beautiful condition for your stay.
With one queen bed and two single beds in the upstairs two bedrooms you'll find a restful space with also a small private balcony off the second bedroom which has the single beds. The second-floor bedroom level is accessed by a stunning sprial staircase.
The compact bathroom is located on the ground floor of the house, through the kitchen. The kitchen itself is well equipped with a dishwahser, combination washer/dryer, Nespresso coffee machine, microwave, oven and all the usual features you might expect in a comfortable home.
The living area is open plan with the kitchen and features a sofa area for unwinding with the Smart tv in the evenings and also a separate dining area closer to the kitchen. There is air conditioning in the living area and master bedroom with a strong fan provided for the single bedroom. In the colder periods, heating will be available also.
Guests should note we really don't recommend they come with a car. So much public transport and so many major sights are available within a short walking distance of this home that it's really not needed. Added to this, parking in the area is restricted to outside working hours only and is very very limited. Bringing a car will genuinely be very time-consuming and inconvenient for you. That being said, you may be able to rent parking locally through sites like Parkhound if you need parking in the area for a longer stay.
The house is located in a popular, bustling, active residential and entertaining area and as such, you have wonderful proximity to bars and restaurants nearby. Guests should understand this comes with the possibility of some street noise but the reward of such a central location and walkability more than makes up for it we feel.
Please note if your stay is to include the nights of Christmas or New Year's Eve a 3 night minimum stay is required.
We're a kind, honest, hard-working team that genuinely wants to deliver 5 star guest stays. During your stay please reach out if we can help you in any way; we can only help if we know and we're dedicated to making your visit a happy one. This property is managed by Holiday Rentals Australia, a professional and licenced dedicated holiday rental agency. By choosing to book with professionals, you can be assured your stay is in the best possible hands.
All guests are urged to read the House Rules prior to completing their booking, these can be found on the final booking page along with Airbnb's Terms and Conditions.
The Neighborhood:
Darlinghurst is an inner-city suburb located just east of Sydney's Central Business District. Like many of Sydney's inner suburbs, this was once a rundown part of town known for its red light district. Today this is a youthful, vibrant neighborhood with an abundance of cafes, restaurants, and nightlife.
It's a popular area for young professionals, creatives and is the heart of Sydney's LGBTQ community. Every year it hosts the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras, a huge parade and festival which attracts hundreds of thousands of people. Parking can be difficult here.
When you want to see some nature, you're just a stone's throw to the harbor and some of the beautiful nearby parks.
