About this property

Laidback Lygon: A Two-Storey Inner City Oasis

Nestled on Lygon Street and just a 5-minute walk to Sydney Road, this split-level apartment epitomizes convenient inner-city living. Enjoy Melbourne's acclaimed restaurants like Etta and 400 Gradi, uncover hidden street breweries and cafes, or take a quick 10-minute tram ride to explore the neighbouring city suburbs. This modern and luminous residence provides generous space for families, featuring multiple alfresco areas, sunlit open living, a study nook for remote work, and convenient parking.
Arriving at this apartment, you’ll be immediately impressed by its proportions. Staged across two levels, it offers a fantastic urban hideaway for families or small groups. You’ll find everything you’ll need for both long and short stays while being moments from Melbourne’s cultural and culinary heartland.

Entering the home, you’ll ascend the stairs to the main living and dining area. This is a bright, open-plan space that flows to a covered balcony, creating a lovely transition between the indoors and out. Come together for a shared meal around the dining table or enjoy cocktail hour in the fresh air. While compact, the kitchen comes fully equipped for your holiday catering with sleek appliances and cooking utensils. In the evening, kick back on the leather lounges for movie nights at home.

Descending to the lower level, discover a dedicated study nook, ideal for those on a working holiday. Both bedrooms feature queen-sized beds and offer ample storage space, complete with block-out blinds for a restful sleep. Although there is no air conditioning downstairs or in the bedrooms, we provide plug-in fans in each room to ensure your comfort. Each bedroom opens to a private balcony, providing serene spots to enjoy a quiet read. The bathroom features a combination bathtub and shower, and the convenience of in-unit laundry facilities includes both a washing machine and dryer.

Garage parking is available for your convenience.

Complimentary toiletries and consumables are provided for your comfort upon arrival. Once consumed, we kindly recommend that guests bring or purchase their own for the rest of their stay.
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.
