About this apartment rental
The Hive Graffiti Apartments is a building inspired by street art and hip hop culture. A larger than life concrete graffiti relief façade complete with arrows, swooshes and drips has been knitted into the existing heritage brick shell of an old Carlton shop. An urban street is celebrated by making permanent this ephemeral art.
The interior has been shaped by the expressive hip hop language of the façade, remnants of the existing brickwork, beehive patterned travertine floors and designer furniture selection.
The ground floor apartment with outside patio is available for short stayz rental. This spacious 75 sqm one bedroom apartment can easily convert into two bedrooms with a sofa bed and privacy screen.
Complete with a 1970's Bang & Olufson hi-fi system and record player, you can enjoy Melbourne from this inner city street art haven!
The Neighbourhood
Carlton is a suburb of Melbourne 2 km north from the central business district. Tram and bus stops are nearby and it is walking distance to most inner city destinations, including Melbourne University.
The suburb is well known for its "Little Italy" precinct on Lygon Street, for its Victorian architecture and its garden squares including the Carlton Gardens. It is situated nearby to Melbourne's many street art attractions.
Located in the heart of Carlton on Rathdowne St, the apartment is directly opposite to the popular El Capitano restaurant and walking distance to shops, restaurants and Melbourne nightlife.
Other things to note
- Guests have access to entire ground floor apartment and patio area.
- The TV lounge area can convert into second bedroom with sofa bed and privacy screen.
- Double glazed windows are installed.
- There are 1 hour, 2 hour and 4 hour parking restrictions from Monday to Saturday in Carlton so parking can be difficult. Subject to availability, parking in a secure basement in the apartment block next door may be able to be arranged for an additional fee.
- The owners and architect of the Hive Graffiti Apartments live in the upstairs apartment and are more than happy to provide a tour of the building and talk about the design of the Hive or the End-to-End building.
