Apartment on the edge
About this condo rental
Located in Glenorchy, this attractive condo for R 1,816 per night is a fantastic option for your next break. Apartment on the EDGE is a modern self-contained, spacious apartment for two, at the rear of a family home, located in the quiet suburb of Lenah Valley. The apartment is newly refurbished, and has been thoughtfully appointed to ensure the comfort and convenience of our guests. The open plan living area has access to the verandah and shared courtyard, where you can sit and enjoy an early morning cuppa, or perhaps a glass of something special in the evening. For those quieter evenings relax and enjoy the apartment which is equipped with a large TV, Wi-Fi, Netflix, and Spotify or perhaps lose yourself in the selection of books on Tasmanian history, culture, and the culinary opportunities that our state is so well known for. Your complimentary breakfast pantry will be stocked with a selection of cereals, muesli, bread and spreads, which may include home made raspberry jam. Tea, coffee and fresh milk is also provided. The kitchen is fully equipped with a full-sized oven and cooktop, fridge, microwave, and dishwasher. The queen size bed is fitted with luxurious linen, and for those cooler Tassie nights an electric blanket. There is ample wardrobe space and in the ensuite bathroom you will find deluxe towels, a hair dryer and a selection of quality bathroom products. Portable cot and baby chair are also available on request. Guests may check themselves in to the apartment independently using the secure pass code door, for easy after hours’ arrivals. Your code will be provided after your booking is accepted. The apartment adjoins the main house; however, it is entirely separate, with its own, private entrance. Our aim is to provide a hospitable space, allowing our guests complete independence and privacy. We are available to assist guests during the day by mobile or email or if you wish, in person in the evening. Lenah Valley is a quiet suburb four kilometres from the CBD with many amenities within walking distance-: • Salamanca Fresh grocery store and deli. • Lenah Valley Foodstore • Sublime Italian restaurant • Milano’s takeaway pizza • Whisk and Co. (breakfast and lunch) • Plus - chemists and doctor’s surgery, hairdressers, service station, newsagent, fashion boutique and florist. In the adjoining suburb of New Town, a few minutes’ drive from the apartment, there are cafes’ bakeries, grocery stores, K Mart and Woolworths and Coles supermarkets. Elizabeth Street, North Hobart, a five-minute drive from the apartment, is famous for its strip of eateries, hotels and specialty shops. Check out a film at the historic State Cinema (possibly on the rooftop) with a glass of Tasmanian wine. From the airport, you can catch a taxi or the Airporter Shuttle Bus is $18 per person one-way to the city. If you have a car it’s about a 30-minute drive. Guests have access to parking in the driveway or there is plenty of off-street parking. Public transport, which will take you to the city (via North Hobart) is only two minutes away on Augusta Road. Buses run very frequently. A taxi to the Waterfront will cost less than $20. It is 10 kilometers to MONA which can take 20 – 30 minutes depending on traffic conditions. There is a Bernese Mountain Dog called Boris in the back garden, please let me know if this is a problem.

Everything we needed. Clean, quiet, great area, spacious unit, lovely garden outlook, lovely hosts. Boris & the cats are beautiful. Just down the road from Calvary, Lenah Valley has a good variety of shops & cafes. Close to North Hobart eateries & shopping & still close & an easy drive into the city

Alison and Rick keep a beautiful accommodation and we felt so relaxed and welcome.
They deserve the highest rating as everything was of the best standard, including cleanliness, hospitality and generosity. We could not have asked for a more relaxed and easy stay. Thank you both.

This is a fabulous place to stay! The property is spotlessly clean, the bed is extremely comfy, and the kitchen is well-equipped. However, what sets it apart from other places are the hosts, Allison and Rick. They are so friendly and helpful, and are genuinely nice people. Though the apartment is connected to their home, you never feel like an intrusion. And Boris, their beautiful dog, is very welcoming too!

The apartment was lovely. Very clean and uncluttered and stocked with a few basics to get you started. Comfy bed, great shower and A very nice outdoor area. What really makes it are the hosts, Allison and Rick. Super friendly and helpful. And of course there is Boris the wonder dog. Highly recommend. This was our first try at a VRBO and was certainly nice to hit a home run the off the bat.

Arrived at our apartment after a very long day travelling and we were more than impressed with this beautiful gem so close to Hobart. Our hosts Allison and Rick were fantastic making us feel so at home. As we arrived late at night it was comforting to find staples in the fridge and pantry for breakfast the next day, plus ample supplies of teas and coffee. I would thoroughly recommend this apartment, I could not fault it. ...Denise
