About this property
Better than a 5-star hotel - Free high-speed WIFI, Netflix and parking - - Perfect for Home Quarantine if needed.
The Kings Domain at the House of Windsor is one of two totally self-contacted townhouses.
Melbourne is continually voted the most liveable city in the world and Windsor is the diamond in her crown. From dining to shopping and nightlife, Windsor has it all
Nestled in a quiet and peaceful street, but only a 2-minute stroll to the famous Chapel Street. Within walking distance to trams and trains and The Avenue Hospital.
THE SPACE The Kings Domain at the House of Windsor is one of two totally self-contacted townhouses.
Why book just another apartment in a big block and no views, when, for the same price, you can stay at The House of Windsor.
The King’s Domain which is the entire ground floor apartment represents open plan living at its most stylish and luxurious and sleeps 5. This townhouse is fitted out to the highest standard of appointments and luxury fittings, ideally suited to extended bookings, including hotel quality, starched and laundered bed linen.
I also have a 1 bedroom apartment on the first floor, that sleeps 4, which you view by going to my profile attached to this listing. Both apartments are fitted out to the same exceptionally high standard.
At about 100 SQ/M the space is about 75% larger than other apartments in multi-unit developments and about 4 times the size of a standard hotel room, yet well under half the price.
The townhouse features extra high ceilings and open planned living, dining and entertaining spaces with custom steel-framed doors that can be thrown open onto an awesome front courtyard.
The gourmet kitchen, designed for entertaining, comes complete with an induction cooktop, along with a full oven and butlers pantry. There is also a fridge/freezer, a dishwasher along with a washer and dryer, all of which are full size.
The townhouse features reverse cycle air-conditioning and an awesome gas fire.
Unlike other listings that are often not much bigger than studio apartments in large blocks of hundreds of units, this is completely your own space, in a low rise neighbourhood of local homes, not tourists or student accommodation.
This is a large open plan space with two bedrooms with 1 queen in each and another single sofa bed.
The bathroom has two toilets and hand basins. Both are separated by 4/5 metres from each other. There is a massive rain head shower between the two bathrooms. The show has floor to fully frosted ceiling glass. It is designed so that someone can use the shower and leave one side, while someone else can use the bathroom on the other side or then enter the shower when vacant. If total privacy is required you just have to wait until the other side is free.
GUEST ACCESS You will have access to the entire unit with a private entrance.
BEDROOM CONFIGURATION 1x Queen size bed 1x Queen size bed and 1x Single sofa bed
GUEST INTERACTION We’re fully contactable before, during, and after your stay should you have any questions. Other than that, we will respect your privacy and leave you to enjoy yourselves!
OTHER THINGS TO NOTE There is limited street parking available down a dead-end street, however isn't usually a problem finding a park. We will supply you with one parking permit for the home.
GETTING AROUND The Sky Bus runs every 10 minutes to/from the airport to Spencer St. $18 O/W $35 RTN. The trip takes 20 minutes outside peak. You can then catch a train or tram to the House of Windsor. Goog le Maps and the PTV app are great tools for navigating Melbourne’s public transport.
Sky Bus also runs a service from the airport to/from St Kilda. This is the same price point as above and as such is a better/cheaper option. However, it only runs every 30 minutes between 6:30 am - 7:00 pm. I'd suggest having the Uber app installed to then get an Uber to the House of Windsor. It would only take a few minutes from the Sky Bus stop in St Kilda.
Myki – public transport card is used on all trains, trams, and buses. The CBD is a free travel zone and Windsor is in zone 1. A 2-hour pass costs $4.10 and a full day is $8.20. Myki cards can be purchased at many convenience stores, 7/11 stores seem to be the most common and easiest to remember, the closest one is on the corner of Chapel and High Streets. Myki cards can’t be purchased onboard.
The best tram route is number 6 Glen Iris line, get off one stop past Chapel St. If you aren't rushed for the time the number 6 tram is a great option as it takes you past loads of Melbourne's best landmarks, Bourke St Mall, Flinders St Station, the Yarra River, Fed Square, the Arts Centre, the Shrine Royal Domain. Just catch a tram first along Bourke St and transfer to a number 6 at the stop after the Bourke St Mall.
The closest train stations are Windsor or Prahran and are equal distance and it is the Sandringham line.
Taxis and ride-share to/from the airport are about $50-$75 or higher depending on traffic. 30 minutes off-peak, but can take approximately 45 minutes in peak traffic.
RULES We don't like rules ourselves, however, this is a multimillion-dollar apartment and sadly we have only one bad incident which involved people using drugs on the property, so we hope you understand our caution.
1/ ABSOLUTELY no parties or events.
Any breach will forfeit the security bond in full. The police will be called and you will be asked to leave.
2/ Without prior approval only registered guests can be on the property at any time.
3/ No smoking inside. No smoking on the rooftop terrace.
At no time must any noise emanate or be able to be heard outside of your apartment.

Failure to do so will see forfeiture of the entire security bond and police will be called.
