The Darling | Sydney, Australia | Luxury Vacation Rental

 

Located in the vibrant harborside suburb of Balmain, Sydney, The Darling is a beautifully restored vacation rental offering an exclusive retreat. The property seamlessly blends heritage charm with modern luxury and it offers great accommodation for up to 6 guests.

This beautifully restored 1858 sandstone home provides three comfortably designed bedrooms. While the property embraces its rich architectural past, its interiors have been reimagined with modern design elements, making it an elegant yet comfortable space. From the outside, the iconic sandstone façade sets the tone for a home steeped in history, seamlessly blending into the classic Balmain streetscape. But step inside, and you'll find bright, open-plan interiors that exude a sense of space and style, with high-end finishes, sleek contemporary furnishings, and a sophisticated color palette. The ground floor is dedicated to expansive living spaces, including a stylish sun-drenched lounge area complete with a cozy fireplace, perfect for unwinding on cooler Sydney evenings. Adjacent to the living room, a state-of-the-art kitchen and dining area serve as the home’s centerpiece. Whether you're preparing a gourmet meal or simply enjoying your morning coffee, this kitchen is designed to impress.

Through floor-to-ceiling glass doors, the home seamlessly extends into a private courtyard oasis. This beautiful decked outdoor space is an entertainer’s delight, complete with a large dining table, stylish outdoor seating, and lush greenery, making it the perfect setting for al fresco meals, sunset drinks, or a leisurely weekend barbecue. Upstairs, three spacious queen bedrooms offer the ultimate in comfort. Crisp linens, plush bedding, and curated décor create a tranquil retreat for restful nights. There is a fourth bedroom which is locked off and not accessible, ensuring ample space for all guests. Each bedroom is bathed in natural light, with soft tones and contemporary styling. The two full bathrooms (one on each floor) feature sleek modern fittings, rainfall showers, and ample vanity space, ensuring comfort and convenience for all guests.

Set in Balmain, one of Sydney’s most sought-after neighborhoods, The Darling offers the perfect location for everyone visiting this beautiful city. With its streets filled with elegant Victorian terraces, cozy pubs and bustling cafes the area is really great choice - the main area of Darling Street is only a short walk away from the house, and the same goes for the ferry to the city. The Darling is more than just a place to stay—it’s an experience. Whether you're soaking in the history, entertaining in the stylish kitchen, or unwinding in the private courtyard, this home is designed to make your Sydney getaway truly unforgettable.
