Modern and well-equipped, an open flow with timber flooring adds to the apartment’s spacious feel, while a sliding glass door opens out to the compact balcony revealing idyllic views of Abbotsford Convent and the suburb’s modest skyline. Astroturf and potted plants create a comfortable spot to savour the outdoors, with a two-seater table for sipping your morning coffee or unwinding with an evening drink as the sun sets.

Back inside, relax on the cozy L-shaped lounge. Use the Chromecast to stream your favourite movies and shows or play one of the Xbox games provided.

Abbotsford is a leafy pocket of Melbourne’s inner north, sandwiched between the vibrant suburbs of Collingwood, Richmond and Clifton Hilll—which are easily accessible via public transport. The Yarra River runs adjacent to your stay, making it easy to start your day with a stroll along the Yarra Trail to check out the scenic views at Dight Falls and Deep Rock Historical Swimming Hole. The Abbotsford Convent and Collingwood Children’s Farm are just down the road where you can make friends with the animals, dine on fresh produce, or relax amongst the manicured gardens. Depending on when you’re travelling, you may be able to catch a women’s AFL game at Victoria Park.

Enjoy the hip and trendy end of Abbotsford—just a five-minute walk from Johnston Street, lined with cafes, sandwich shops, pizzerias and boutique shopping.
