About this house rental

Nestled in the heart of Balmain. A captivating three-storey home exuding charm and character.

Welcome to this much-loved family home in the heart of Balmain. A charming, character-filled three-storey terrace that’s been called home for years. The photos do a wonderful job of capturing its best angles, the light-filled spaces, and those stunning views of the Anzac Bridge and city skyline, but we want to be upfront: this is a well-lived-in house, not a glossy showroom. You'll find a few signs of everyday family life. Some gentle wear on the floors, a scuff here and there, and furnishings that are comfortable and inviting rather than brand-new.

It's far from tired or neglected; it's simply relaxed, authentic, and full of the warmth that comes from being truly lived in. Rest assured, the home is thoroughly professionally cleaned between every guest stay, so you'll arrive to fresh linens and that welcoming "just-ready-for-you" feel. If you're looking for a genuine Balmain experience in a home with soul, plenty of space, and all the comforts you need for a memorable Sydney stay, we think you'll love it just as we do.

This fully furnished residence boasts three bedrooms, with the oversized primary bedroom occupying the top floor featuring an ensuite bathroom with a luxurious bath, walk-in wardrobes, air conditioning, and multiple skylights.

The spacious living room opens up to a sizable balcony offering views of the Anzac Bridge and the Sydney city skyline, perfect for enjoying morning coffee or evening drinks. Downstairs, two double bedrooms lead out to a lush private garden, providing a tranquil retreat for outdoor relaxation.

The well-equipped kitchen, complete with a dishwasher, microwave, and gas cooking, caters to culinary enthusiasts. Additionally, the living space features a cosy gas heater, smart TV, and there is a separate study filled with books and a desk, ideal for remote work or study sessions.

A residential parking permit for one vehicle is provided for on-street parking convenience. Within walking distance, residents can explore local shops, supermarkets, and the vibrant community of Balmain with its array of cafes, restaurants, and boutiques along Darling Street.

Enjoy a park and public tennis courts at the bottom of the road, plus from here you can take a short bus ride directly into the city centre.

With easy access to Sydney's CBD and iconic attractions, this residence offers a perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and lifestyle.

Everything in the description is very accurate and the pictures are a good representation of what you actually get The furniture is well worn but sturdy and that makes it more comfortable and cozy for a family, although it really does have a great kitchen and beautiful views and deck for entertaining. Lots of cute animals live in the neighborhood. The buses less than a two minute walk and get you anywhere you need to go in Sydney. The shops and food on Darling Street are great. Property managers are very attentive, and easy to communicate with. If we ever get to return to Sydney, I will definitely try and rent here again!
6 / 10Average·Jul 2024
We stayed at this location / property for 2 wks. Paid a pretty penny for the 14 days rental. It's a nice location, close to the high street in Balmain, but the property is very tired and old. Rather dark too from the insides. Humidity was very high and lots of dampness in the lower floor. Couldn't use the rooms much at all as it was very cold in the house and in the lower floors too. The front entrance area needs lots of cleaning and refurbishment. Front entrance lock is not very secure. The property managers were kind to do a 2nd cleaning as when we moved in, the kitchen floor and living area was quite dusty and kitchen floor quite oily too / the oven needed cleaning too. The master bedroom on the 2nd floor is very large and the bathroom is also quite big, but there is no blinds or curtains to provide privacy when in the bathroom / shower - quite odd. Front door lock doesn't feel very secure. The kitchen is well appointed for easy use. Overall a good stay, but quite expensive for the amount we paid for 2 wks. Signifiant TLC is needed to bring the place up to a level where paying the amount we did for 14 days would justify $460 / night. Property Managers did a nice job and were attentive - thank you.
