Is this the best Airbnb in Sydney?
Renovated house full of character and charm, right in the centre of the action, "Sinjin" is a design-forward house that appreciates history & architectural detail. With modern comforts like aircon, you'll love the quality fit-out, peace and quiet and location which is central to everything, including the city, Central, Glebe & Newtown.
If you love design and interiors you'll love this house! An epic renovation has lovingly brought this old dame back to life, with no expense spared in creating a made-for-Airbnb space that exudes charm and character.
From custom made marble floors, to gorgeous brass lights, to restored fireplaces and decorative ceilings, there is something of interest in every room.
Private, secure and quiet, Sinjin is perfect for those studying or teaching at nearby universities (on the doorstep of both Sydney Uni and UTS) or those visiting our fair city and wanting a central but friendly neighbourhood base from which to explore the city. Note this is a luxury stay and isn't best suited to backpackers or those looking for budget accommodation. Bookings of 2 singles sharing a room not accepted. Couples welcome, LGBTI friendly.
Features:
- Reverse cycle air conditioning
- Lockable room door for privacy
- Free wifi
- Ceiling fan with remote
- Pillowtop queen mattress and hotel quality linen
- Possibly Sydney's most Instagrammable bathroom, with amazing marble tiles and a freestanding clawfoot tub
- Underfloor heating in all bathrooms and the entire downstairs floor
- Huge emerald green kitchen, with french door fridge with chilled water, 5 burner induction cooktop, 4 ovens, dishwasher and integrated microwave
- Breakfast (cereal), a range of teas, pod coffee machine and all essentials supplied
- Toiletries (soap, shampoo, conditioner, etc) supplied
- Double glazed windows in all new areas keeps the house beautifully quiet
- Eco-sensitive build with top of the range, super efficient appliances running off solar
- Washing machine and heat pump dryer available in concealed laundry
Aside from their private room, guests can access all shared areas: open plan kitchen, dining and family room with Netflix, as well as the shady, private backyard.
The kitchen has tea and coffee and all cooking facilities, with a fully kitted out kitchen - though why would you cook with so many great restaurants nearby!
I have 3 gorgeous little pet ratties. They live in the separate loungeroom so you may never see them, but just ask me if you'd like to meet them, they love making new friends!
Only fully vaccinated guests are invited to stay (proof of vaccination may be required).
As I have a Strict cancellation policy, travel insurance is recommended to cover you in case of any disruptions to your travel, such as delayed/canceled flights, illness (incl Covid), or other circumstances.
Neighbourhood Description
Forest Lodge, New South Wales, Australia
Forest Lodge is a vibrant, unique suburb only a stone's throw from the dazzling city, gentle Glebe, hip Newtown, buzzing Surry Hills, and a walk to the water. Being opposite the stately Sydney University, it is a bohemian place populated with a mix of students, young families, and older residents. Comprised of gorgeous Victorian terraces you can get a feel for 'old Sydney town' by walking its tree-lined streets. Take a rest from admiring the architecture by stopping in for a coffee and maybe a cronut at any one of a multitude of cafes right outside your door, enjoy a meal at foodie heaven "The Tramsheds", or just get a beer at the Nag's Head or Forest Lodge Hotel.
The location really is hard to beat! Whilst on a quiet residential street, buses to the city, Central Station, Bondi/Clovelly and outer west are all available a 30 second walk away and you can walk to Central (the main railway station). It's walking distance to the city, Broadway, Glebe, Newtown, Ultimo, Chippendale, and Annandale. Taxis and Ubers are plentiful, and walking is safe any time of the day or night. On-street parking is available on the street outside (there are both unrestricted and restricted spots. If you miss out on an unrestricted spot, visitor passes can be purchased off me for $10/day).
