We had our first post-pandemic family get-together at Helen's house over the Christmas holidays and had a wonderful time. It is a beautifully designed, open concept building sitting on a quiet hillside surrounded by trees. At the bottom of the hill is The Great North Trail which is one of the best hiking trails in Australia. We were close to everything we wanted to get to in Sydney but I would recommend having access to a car. Although we were in the centre of Sydney the neighborhood felt like a small village with good grocery stores and restaurants. Everything was in working order and well maintained. If you are lucky and your dates corresponds to availability we would highly recommend that you book Helen's excellent home.
