Forget about Melbourne's towering skyscrapers and glitzy hotels. Bowen Cottage is in a quiet street on hip Richmond Hill, making it feel like a world away from the big smoke. And yet it's only a short walk or a quick tram ride into town. It's the kind of charming, beautifully appointed inner-city terrace house that Melburnians relish and it could be all yours – for a while, at least.
The cottage's iron-laced verandah shelters a lovingly renovated and decorated interior. Two bedrooms are decked out in cool linens, the contemporary kitchen has everything you need and there's an outside courtyard to enjoy the breakfast and gourmet snack provisions. If Melbourne's renowned warming sunshine proves too much, there's a dining area indoors as well.
The living area is light and bright and well stocked with magazines, DVDs and guides to restaurants and out-of-the-way bars. Bowen Cottage's funky inner-urban location makes it easy to get out and explore Richmond, the nearby Bridge Road fashion strip and beyond. With Bowen Cottage as your base, Melbourne never looked so good. Location: Two km or 10 minutes east of Melbourne. Melway 2G J5. HEMA RA 41 D4.
Facilities: One self-contained terrace house: two bedrooms (either king or twin beds), bathroom, rest room, living/dining area (TV, VCR, CD, RC AC), two courtyards (one with BBQ). On-street permit parking available. Self-catering.
