Woollahra

Description of the home

Our roomate is moving overseas leaving a room open in our beautiful, large ground floor apartment that feels more like a house; 3 bedrooms, dining room, lounge, office, breakfast room, and the greenest bathroom on the planet. The entire building of 10 apartments has been owned and maintained by the same family for 50 years; tenants are generally friends as the apartments are rarely publicly advertised. This means no real estate agents, no strata hassles and a real vibe.

SHORT TERM ONLY
The room is available until end of March, as we’ll need to move out; the building has been sold and they will renovate it entirely by March 2025.
You’ll have the master bedroom + garage parking.

Lovable: Heritage building, dark wooden floors and high pressed ceilings - in the perfect location between CBD, Double Bay (15 minutes walk) and Bondi Beach (10-minute drive). Edgecliff station is a 7-minute walk even for the slowest of walkers. Arguably one of the most tranquil streets in the East. Loads of on-street parking. Walking distance to cafes, Chiswick, Woollahra Village, Bondi Junction and Double Bay.

We have crazy fast internet, Netflix, gas heating, gas cooking, unlimited hot water and more books than shelving space. There's enough room in the apartment to find time to yourself and sit, eat, read, work, or drink and chat with others. Large dining room table can comfortably seat 8 for gatherings. A study if you ever need to work from home. The road, building and area is quiet residential, no street noise, no pub noise, the neighbours dogs are the loudest thing around and we've made friends with most of them.

Learn to love: It's a heritage building, so expect an old-school doorbell, interesting chandeliers, heavy wooden sash windows and separate hot/cold taps in the bathroom. We've never connected the TV aerial, so if you watch something that's not streamed or on-demand via Netflix/iTunes/Stan you'll have to make a new plan (we'll help you back from the dark ages).

The bedroom available isn't furnished, but easily fits a queen-size bed, and is the lightest and brightest bedroom in the house. Our leaving flatmate is wanting to sell some furniture if you're needing anything.
