General overview
Our funky 1 bedroom retro style apartment is located in the heart of South Yarra, just 15 minutes via train to the City of Melbourne.
The space
Our sweet retro style apartment offers a ‘home away from home’ experience. It has been recently renovated with a new kitchen and appliances, a refurbished retro bathroom, gorgeous plantation shutters and new wool carpet.
The apartment is private and secluded as it is set at the back of a small apartment block with views of lush green trees during the day and the lights of South Yarra on the horizon as the sun sets in the evening.
There is a super comfortable queen size bed (153cm x 203cm) and high quality linen. The apartment has all the comforts of home.
You won't need a car here - but if you have one then there is allocated free off street parking for 1 car.
The patio/walkway is a great place to sit and enjoy the afternoon sun from the West.
The small private garden, behind the apartment, is a 'cool' place to sit with a glass of wine on a warm night.
Guest access
The apartment can be accessed via a ramp, near the front of the apartment block, or via one set of stairs, at the rear of the apartment block, that lead directly to the front door.
Notes
Please leave our home as clean and today as you found it, when you arrived. If you would like to arrange cleaners please let us know. Cleaning fee will be $150 AUD.
The washing machine and dryer are located in a community laundry and there is a west facing clothesline, for lovely afternoon sun.
Our apartment is rented for medium term periods and we make it available in between rental periods and at the end of a period, when we are not staying there and while we await rental bookings. For more information see our listing on Airbnb

Neighbourhood
A wonderful base for exploring Melbourne and its surrounds. No car is needed. The apartment is in a very quiet location and just minutes from the heart of bustling Chapel Street and Toorak Road in South Yarra, which is on the south bank of the Yarra River. The Hawksburn train station is a 1 minute walk from the apartment and from there it is only 2 stops to the centre of the City of Melbourne. South Yarra is a fabulous area for shopping, cafes, restaurants, movie theaters, parks and gardens. The Prahran Market is a short walk from the apartment as is the Hawksburn Village and the Toorak Village shopping areas. There is a wonderful outdoor 50 metre swimming pool nearby - Prahran Aquatic Centre. Melbourne's Royal Botanical Gardens are a short tram ride away or a longer walk (if you prefer walking). It is also an option to walk along Chapel Street to the Yarra River and then along the river to the City (Melbourne). There is a diverse range of public transport available - trams, trains, buses - that can quickly take you all over Melbourne. Trams along Chapel Street will take you in one direction to St Kilda and St Kilda Beach or in the other direction to Richmond. Trams along Toorak Road will take you to South Bank on the Yarra. See our photos for some of the attractions and activities.
