We spent a month here and we had a really nice stay in this house, although we had some issues (which have been fixed quickly). A massive 48 hours rainfall caused some leaks in the roof (in the veranda) but the agent sent someone the day after to stop the leaks, the gas oven wasn't working but we could use the electricity supply to grill and still use the stove, the light in one wardrobe kept on flicking but we simply plugged out the light and a few other small issues that we could easily solve... That's all the charms of an old house, and still very comfortable, cozy, spacious and fully equipped. It has been decorated with style and personal touch, every piece of furniture, sculpture and painting seems to have an history behind. The house is in a very convenient location, a few steps away from Erskineville train station, in a friendly and quiet district, but yet close to Newtown, a lively scene of bars, restaurants etc. We recommend this house for its unique flavor.
