About this property
Sustainable Luxury in Australia's 1st Passive Apt
Welcome to the Fern, Australia’s first certified Passive House apartment building. Tucked away in Sydney’s Redfern/Eveleigh/Alexandria triangle this two-story executive apartment is a cocoon-like haven in proximity to major event precincts, parks & eateries. Taking thoughtful design to another level, every decision and detail in the Fern has been considered in terms of liveability, and impact on the environment. Featuring a private terrace in the sun, it’s the perfect home away from home oasis.
Entering on the first of the two floors, step inside the indoor-outdoor open plan living and dining area. Enjoy bright interiors aided by high windows spilling in natural light. Wander out into the private terrace and bath peacefully in the Sydney sun.
The roomy living and dining area yields plenty of space to sit, study, rest and play. Lounge atop the sofa in front of the TV overlooking the private terrace. The triple-glazed glass, acoustic woollen block out blinds and filtered purified air system will guarantee optimal peace and quiet.
Homemade meals are made easy in the state-of-the-art kitchen with Smeg oven, microwave/grill, and induction cooktop. The large dining table provides plenty of seating and entertaining space for you and your guests.
Upstairs, you’ll find both the generously sized bedroom and bathroom to wash up and rest up perfectly after a long day. The bedroom features a king bed fitted with hotel-quality linen, ample built-in storage space, block out blinds and pops of sublime, one-off local artwork. With triple-glazed doors and windows throughout, enjoy a good night’s sleep in complete peace and quiet. Also featured in the bedroom is a large workspace.
The pristine, double-sink bathroom comes stocked with eco toiletries and plush towels amid premium stone finishes.
Built-in laundry & ironing facilities are also handy additions for your stay.
Due to local regulations, we can happily host you for up to 90 nights. Any bookings that exceed this duration will be cancelled by Vrbo.
Sorry, this home is not suitable for infants.
We are pet-friendly - please add the number of pets you're travelling with and let us know about your furry friend at the time of booking. We’ll reach out to charge a standard pet fee of $50.
~Long Stays~
Stays of 21 days or more will incur an additional $120 fee, charged separately, to cover the cost of a deep clean and maintain the property's cleanliness after an extended stay. In-stay cleans are available for $275 and include a full cleaning service with professionally laundered fresh linen.
