If this house is already booked for some of your required dates we have two houses listed right next door to each other (interconnected if required for a group up to 12) just search VRBO Listing 360715.
Enjoy spectacular views in this spacious, beautifully furnished home in Balmain, with three bedrooms and three bathrooms. Street parking is available, or it’s just a short ferry ride to new shopping precinct, Barangaroo, with easy access from there to Circular Quay, the Sydney Opera House and the CBD (Downtown).

The Space:
Set over two levels, this supremely comfortable home features a spacious terrace with fantastic views of Sydney Harbour and the CBD (Downtown). The terrace is great for entertaining and offers a perfect view of Sydney’s world famous New Years Eve fireworks display.

From this terrace, you’ll enter a large living room with a comfy “melt-into-it” sofa, arm chair and flat screen TV. The living room flows through to a big dining room with a table that extends to fit ten people. From there, you’ll enter a well-appointed kitchen with a dishwasher, gas cooktop, electric fan-forced oven, microwave and coffee maker. Another generous sized table here can seat up to ten people. There’s a laundry off the kitchen which has a washer and dryer, as well as a WC and shower. Bi-fold doors connect the kitchen to a fabulous rear stepped patio courtyard with an outdoor table, colourful potted flowers, designer tile touches, and an artisan-forged iron pergola and grape vines.

On the second level of the house, you’ll find three well-appointed bedrooms, all with reverse–cycle heating/cooling. One bedroom has a queen sized bed and its own en-suite and balcony with more stunning harbour views. A second bedroom has a double bed and ceiling fan, and the third bedroom has a king sized bed and balcony. There’s also a bathroom on this floor with a WC and separate shower and bathtub.

The Neighborhood:
Historic Balmain is just far enough away from the main tourist hubs of Circular Quay, Sydney Opera House and the CBD to have its relaxed vibe, but close enough to get to the action in ten minutes. With shops, markets, public transport and an abundance of eateries in close proximity, it’s the perfect location.

It’s a short walk to busses and Balmain wharf, with regular ferry services across Sydney’s famous harbour to Barangaroo and Circular Quay, both of which are close to Sydney’s CBD and train stations. If you have a car, there’s easy parking on the street outside the property.

Beautiful House in a Great Location
We had eight amazing nights in Giacomo and Lyn's house in Balmain East. The house is very spacious (we were a party of four adults), clean and full of everything you could possibly need for a perfect stay. The kitchen, in particular, has every appliance you could wish for. It is only around 15 minutes walk to the bus stop of ferry terminal (although the hills are quite steep) and the walk to the ferry terminal is through a lovely little park by the water. The views from the balcony at the front of the house are to die for, day or night (the night time skyline, especially, is amazing!). If there is no-one staying in the house next door, Giacomo is happy for you to use their roof top garden - great for a pre-dinner drink or a night cap) We were welcomed by Giacomo and Lyn when we arrived and made to feel at home right away. Giacomo took us on a small tour of Balmain, showing us some of the many shops and restaurants (try the Royal Oak for great food and service). They were extremely helpful throughout our stay, though they weren't intrusive but just left us to get on with our holiday unless we needed something, when Giacomo was on hand immediately. He gave us lots of help and tips for getting around Sydney with recommendations for places to visit. Balmain is a great place to stay with boutique shops and lovely restaurants. It has a real vibe to it without being too busy and has everything you need. We've rented a number of properties in Europe, the USA and Australia and this has to be one of the best. If we ever make it back to Sydney, this will be our goto place. If you go, you definitely won't be disappointed.

Really great family trip, some excellent memories for us all, looking forward to our future visits.
Balmain was a great location, excellent for our New Years celebrations, a clear view of all Sydney’s fireworks, travelling daily by boat or bus to various locations, a really great base. The accommodation met all our needs and was a good family space. Lyn & Giacomo were great landlords, very helpful & going the extra mile to make our holiday special.

Lovely House in a superb location with harbour views
This property deserves the 5 * reviews due to its comfort and location. The extras supplied by Giacomo the host were greatly appreciated from coffee, tea, toiletries, tissues to the washing machine and dishwasher tablets. We were a family of 5 adults from different cities in Scotland getting together to celebrate a milestone birthday and really enjoyed the many social spaces this house offers as well as the 3 bathrooms ! The location is perfect a quiet residential area away from busy central Sydney yet only a short ferry ride away. We purchased Opal card on first day and used it on bus, ferry and train. The ferry ride across the harbour was such a joy day or night giving spectacular views of bridge, Opera house and the Sydney skyline. Balmain itself is a quaint suburb plenty of cafe culture and an array of shops to suit most tastes. We had a busy 6 days of sightseeing so really did appreciate coming back to this lovely house to relax and enjoy a quiet drink on terrace and seeing Sydney lit up at night and even a few fireworks over the bridge on our first night. Our activities included hop on/off bus tour of Sydney stopping at Fish Market where we had the best fish and chips ever; back stage tour of the Opera House, so interesting ; visit to Old Victoria building steeped in history and now home to "posh shops" ; a superb meal at the Farmhouse restaurant in Kings , advance booking required an explosion of flavours awaits you. Also took a day out of Sydney to visit Hunter Wine Valley in a small group with Kerrific Tours (Sam) which took in boutique wineries, a brewery, chocolate making factory and visit to animal sanctuary where we met sleepy Koalas and friendly kangaroos. The trip was so enjoyable as was the countryside . Also highly recommend taking a ferry trip to Manly the beach is beautiful and lots of good eating places and lots of dog lovers. Staying at Two hearts offers the best of both worlds; close proximity to central Sydney yet the peace and tranquility of village life.

Slice of serenity
What a beautiful property! The location and views from the balconies were divine - best sunrises and sunsets I’ve seen in a while! The communication prior to our trip with Giacomo were detailed and incredibly helpful - he went out of his way to ensure we had a wonderful stay. The decor was beautifully European and quirky. The property location was friendly, close to shops, ferry and bus stops. It was quiet and we will definitely return!!

Fantastic location, amenities and service
From our first email contact until our final goodbye, we were pleased and impressed with this property. The owners have left nothing undone - they've thought of everything! The house is spacious and comfortable. Every amenity we could have needed was available. The neighborhood is quiet and secluded yet a nice walk from any shop, restaurant, transport you need. We had no issues with the specific address, using Uber and Uber Eats daily. Would recommend this for families, friends, even couples.
