The Space:

An entrance area leads to a large kitchen/dining space with polished floorboards and eclectic artworks throughout.

The Neighborhood:

Situated just 5 kilometres from Melbourne’s CBD (Downtown), Footscray is characterised by its diverse multiculturalism and cool vibe - Time Out magazine placed it 13th in its list of ’50 Coolest Neighbourhoods in the World’ of 2019, and since the eclectic suburb has only improved with further gentrification. The warehouse apartment itself is well positioned, walking distance to eateries and the Footscray Community Arts Centre which is host to theatre performances, a bar, cafe and gallery spaces. It’s a 5 minute drive to a Coles supermarket, while Footscray Market, offering a wide variety of fresh foods and other stalls, is a 7 minute drive (or 18 minutes on foot). Footscray Park is heritage listed as one of the most intact examples of an Edwardian designed park and only an 8 minute drive from the apartment. The Western Health Footscray Hospital and Western Private Hospital are both a 12 minute drive, as is Flemington Racecourse.



Getting Around:

The apartment comes with a dedicated parking spot. If you prefer public transport, nearby buses service the area, and Footscray train station is a 17 minute walk from the apartment.

* **Long-Term Stays:** For bookings longer than one month, a mandatory full cleaning and linen change is scheduled every 4 weeks to keep the apartment fresh for your extended stay. This will be added to your total booking amount.



* This apartment is accessed via stairs and is therefore not suitable for guests with mobility issues. Whilst it is only one level up, being a warehouse conversion, the ceilings are high so there are three flights of stairs to apartment level. Definitely worth the climb:)



* Extra $40/night will be charged for guests after 4 or if the sofa bed needs to be prepared.
