About this apartment rental
Set against the backdrop of North Melbourne, this contemporary apartment offers an ideal location, with trendy shops and eateries just beyond your doorstep. Recently built with heating and cooling and designed with a focus on style and comfort, the property boasts skyline views that can be admired from your balcony or the shared gym – set against the skyline of Melbourne's CBD. Public transport is easily accessible while secure parking for a single vehicle is also included.
This recently constructed apartment serves as a welcoming open-plan sanctuary elevated above the urban hustle and bustle. Floor-to-ceiling windows bathe the space in gorgeous natural light while creating an ever-changing neighbourhood scene below.
Featuring a bright and airy living space that seamlessly extends to a private balcony, you can put your feet up on the sofa or enjoy your morning coffee al fresco, all while basking in the morning sunlight. The contemporary kitchen, complete with a marble worktop, is fully equipped for home-cooked meals and features a breakfast bar with stools for casual dining, as well as a dishwasher for effortless clean-up. Additionally, a spacious six-seater timber dining table is available, which can also serve as a dedicated workspace should you be visiting on business.
Two light-filled bedrooms comfortably accommodate three guests, featuring a queen-size bed in one and a single bed in the other. The primary bedroom conveniently features an ensuite with a walk-in shower and modern vanity, while the main bathroom is equally sleek. Both bathrooms include complimentary toiletries.
Additional amenities feature high-speed Wi-Fi and an in-unit laundry facility complete with a two-in-one washer/dryer. Don't forget to take advantage of the shared gym, which offers a workout experience set against the stunning backdrop of Melbourne's CBD. Family amenities include a high chair and portacot (bring your own linen and blankets when using).
The property is equipped with basic sundries to help you settle in, perfect for a short visit or to kickstart a longer one. While we don’t replenish these items, we recommend bringing some extras or picking up what you need locally.
During your stay, you and your group will have the entire apartment to yourselves. Please make yourselves at home!
Nestled in the heart of North Melbourne, the apartment offers an enviable location with the CBD just a quick train or tram ride away. For foodies, the area features an eclectic mix of dining options. The Queen Victoria Market, one of the city's most iconic food markets, is just a short 13-minute walk away and offers a wide array of fresh produce, gourmet foods, and unique souvenirs. Please note that the market is only open from Thursday to Sunday. Be sure to enjoy the nearby Flagstaff Gardens, a quick 15-minute stroll from the stay. Here, you’ll find a lush, green escape right in the city centre, perfect for a stroll or a picnic. And for those who wish to venture further, public transport links are easily accessible, making the entire city of Melbourne readily explorable.
Due to local regulations, we can happily host you for up to 90 nights. Any bookings that exceed this duration will be cancelled by Vrbo.
Standard check-in time for meet-and-greet is from 3pm-8pm. Check-in after 8pm will incur a $35 fee. If you are running late to meet our key handler, please let us know ASAP. We will need to charge $50 per hour for late arrival to meet our key handler, as this is what the service charges us.
Please note that this property may experience some noise from nearby streets, which could impact light sleepers.

6 / 10Average·Nov 2025
This is a difficult apartment to rate. On one hand, it is inna great location on Flemington Rd. It has a lovely layout and finishes, pleasant outlook from the 9th floor (even though there is construction over the road, not the fault of the apartment). On the other hand, as a ‘shoes off’ apartment one would expect an excellently clean and well equipped apartment. This was not the case. Cleaning was very average. Simple things like no tea towel, how is one expected to wash and put away dishes if there is no tea towel. Extra blanket or doona for Melbourne’s cold nights, are we expected to run the air conditioner all night to stay warm. And after getting the ‘anything we can do’ email after the first night - nothing! So hosts, just a little more and it would be excellent.
