Private cottage on the park

A tranquil oasis in the inner west! Come and stay in a New-York style loft apartment, filled with natural light and surrounded by parklands. Be within easy walking distance of local cafes and shops, buses and the train, which offer easy transport to anywhere you may need to go. Pets welcome! The cottage is separate to the main residence and adjacent to a park, with your own entrance. Downstairs there is a fully equipped kitchen, bathroom, washer/dryer, and generous living area with a Queen sofa bed big enough for 2 guests. A staircase leads up to the bedroom where there is a Double bed, small desk, sitting area, and ample storage for your belongings. There is an outside sitting area that benefits from morning and afternoon sun, and is a lovely spot to enjoy a drink or cup of tea while watching the bird life. The garden is fully enclosed for guests bringing pets. Guests have the entire accomodation to themselves. The cottage is separate to the main residence, where Lizzie and Cam live with their 2 year old twin girls - happy to engage with you, but far enough away not to disturb you. The property is adjacent to a park and you will have your own entrance on the side. The backyard is shared. Lizzie and Cam live in the main house and Prue lives nearby. All 3 are readily available at all times to answer any questions or difficulties you may have. Happy to interact with you, but also happy to leave you to your own devices if that suits you better. The accomodation is located in a quiet residential street in Dulwich Hill. The property is bordered by Laxton Reserve - a small park that is a favourite among local families - and Arlington Oval - a neighbourhood soccer field. There is free, unticketed street parking. There are many amenities within walking distance of the property: • Sideways Deli Cafe (4 min walk) • Dulwich Hill Village Shops (2 min drive, 10 min walk) • IGA supermarket • Australia Post • Pharmacy • Gleebooks • Local cafes and restaurants • Dulwich Hill Train Station (15 min walk) • Arlington Light Rail Station (3 min walk) *The light rail will be closed for construction works until early 2023.
