About this property

Modern, cosy, self-contained studio flat within a family home

Modern, clean, fully furnished and self-contained studio flat with fully equipped kitchenette (fridge, toaster, kettle, microwave etc.) and all essentials supplied. Located in a very tranquil leafy setting, with an abundance of bird life. The flat has a separate entry, and while you'll have complete privacy, it is located within our family home (we live upstairs). With this in mind we ask guests to be mindful of noise. Conveniently located to Indooroopilly Shopping Centre, The University of Queensland, and Brisbane's CBD, with an easily accessible bus stop at the end of our street. Buses are less frequent outside peak hours and on weekends.

Comfortable retreat.

Cara was an excellent hostess - she and Lucien welcomed us and were always available if we needed any help. The studio apartment was very comfortable, quiet and well located for us visiting family nearby. We would highly recommend it and hope to stay again in the future.

It was a really nice little flat, good for a long or short stay. It was clean and the communication with the property manager was good aswell. But without a car maybe a bit to far from the CBD from Brisbane away, nethertheless a bus station is 5 Minutes away and comes once an hour.

Perfect for son studying at UQ

My son stayed here for the last 2 months of his study abroad and he found this “home away from home” perfect for him. He felt comfortable and safe and had everything he needed to feel at home. The host was very helpful. It was very clean.

Home away from home

As new Brisbane residents our home away from home's location was in a great. Waking up to kookaburras singing and the walking trails close by made us feel like we were in the country but so close to the city for exploring. Our hosts were very helpful & friendly. We felt like we were leaving a long term home at the end of our time. Thank you
