“Serendipity in Kirribilli”
We came across this house at short notice after being let down late on our original booking elsewhere. This might be a house with old Victorian bones but make no mistake, it has been meticulously maintained and modernized. Everything you need and nothing you don’t. T.Vs and heatpumps /air-con everywhere for example – large bedrooms. On three levels with urban views from the top level and a sunny courtyard at the bottom, this place has a quirky design (see how quick you can find the ‘Harry Potter’ toilet) and fronts onto a quiet leafy street. We had a ball in this place.
Other things we loved - This house is 2 mins walk to Kirribilli Village with all its cafes, coffee, mini supermarket and pub etc. Five minutes to get up onto the north end of the Sydney Harbour bridge walkway and also the Milsons Point train station. Ferries were handy too. Luna Park ten minutes by foot. We had no need for a car, it is a 2.3km walk to Circular Quay across the bridge, 3.0km walk to the Opera houses. 15 minutes walk the other way to North Sydney.
Pam the landlord was fantastic to deal with.
While we stayed close and walked most places, the location of this house would give you a great launchpad for exploring further afield by car or train.
Highly recommended by all 7 of us!!!!!
