About this property

Little Charles (Pet Friendly)

Tucked away in the heart of Fitzroy, Little Charles is a heritage-listed worker’s cottage that has been beautifully transformed into a stylish and contemporary retreat. While compact in size, clever design has opened up the space, creating a split-level home with multiple inviting areas. The cozy living room provides the perfect spot to unwind, while the sunny outdoor courtyard offers a secluded escape for your morning coffee or evening wine.

This home comfortably accommodates up to four guests. On the ground floor, you’ll find a spacious king bedroom, which can be converted into two single beds upon request. The modern bathroom with a walk-in shower is conveniently located for both bedrooms to share. Upstairs, a queen-sized bed in the loft-style mezzanine overlooks the living area, creating an airy and open feel. While this space is semi-enclosed, the design allows natural light to filter through, enhancing the home’s bright and inviting atmosphere.

Located just steps from Smith Street, one of Melbourne’s most vibrant cultural hubs, this home is ideal for travelers attending events at the MCG, Marvel Stadium, or Rod Laver Arena, all easily accessible via the nearby tram line. A parking permit is available for guests bringing a car.

Perfect for families and pet-friendly stays, this property welcomes furry companions on request, with an additional pet fee. Whether you're exploring Melbourne’s iconic laneways, enjoying its renowned dining scene, or attending major concerts and sporting events, Little Charles offers the perfect blend of history, style, and unbeatable location.

Luxico manages luxury properties and have great marketing. Unfortunately, their marketing is the only thing they do well. Maybe a name change to Basico is required.

So close to everything we need. A great yard for our dog. Very clean and comfortable. Everything you need in the kitchen and more. Nice and quiet while being so close to the centre of town is a real boon.

High quality accommodation in a bustling area of Melbourne. The apartment was perfect for our family and small dog. It was a lovely treat to receive the welcome pack. All appliances were of a high standard. We were close to shops, public transport and a lot's of amazing eateries. All efforts were made to ensure our comfort. Parking was very convenient. The apartment is well insulated against noise and had good security. The kitchen is well stocked and easy to use. Having an outdoor area that was quiet and private was a wonderful bonus. Highly recommended, and we will definitely be returning.
