About this property
Macpherson Luxe 4BR House by A & T
Macpherson has everything you could need, including lock up garage for two cars. The kitchen is the envy of all cooks, fully equipped to allow you to self cater. However, if you would rather eat out, Footscray Village is just a short stroll and has many restaurants and cafe options than most local areas. Or head into the city for a taste of the local nightlife.
Macpherson was designed to impress. Expansive living spaces are complemented by gorgeous modern furnishings and four bedrooms, plus a second living space (with a sofa bed) make it an ideal urban retreat for families and groups alike.
Accommodation
Bedroom 1: 1 X Queen size bed with Ensuite (Shower) Bedroom 2: 2 X Singe size beds Bedroom 3: 2 X Single size beds Bedroom 4: 1 X Queen size bed
Upstairs Lounge: 1 X Queen size bed.(Additional)
Upstairs 1 X Shared Bathroom (Bath + Shower)
Area Description
Footscray is a suburb 5 km west of Melbourne, Australia.
"More than a century on from its industrial past, the suburb has earned a new reputation as a hipster hub with an enviable restaurant and bar scene. It is now one of the top 10 most liveable suburbs in Melbourne, according to the Domain Liveable M elbourne study by Deloitte Access Economics and Tract Consultants."
These days Footscray is home to Chinese, Vietnamese, and increasingly, North African immigrants and their gastronomic traditions. Slurp a bowl of pho at a Vietnamese noodle house, get a masala dosa near Victoria University, or tuck into traditional Ethiopian injera flat bread at Nicholson Street Mall. Alternatively, opt for one of Melbourne's best steaks at the Station Hotel.
STRICTLY NO PARTY
The home is equipped with a motion detector camera at the front and the back for the purpose of Guest ID as we are not onsite at this property. It is for both yours and our security.

The house was very clean and well presented, Alan was also very quick to help with answering any questions we had, would highly recommend staying here for anyone needing a place to stay with quick access to the city.
Outstanding accomodation for a group of 8 adults. Plenty of space, very well equipped and good transport options into Melbourne. Alan is an excellent host and always willing to help. Thoroughly recommend!

Thanks Jynell for your review! Thank you for your recommendation to the other travellers. I have the same bed mattress at home too. They are very comfortable and is of the perfect firmness, hence fitted Macpherson with the same. We look forward to have you back.

Dear Lisa, I appreciate your positive feedback about our house. We do take pride in making sure the place is clean and in order, and our guests stay are comfortable. Thank you for the perfect rating, and looking forward to seeing you again soon.
Stayed here with family. Alan the host was very accommodating and the house was fantastic. Beds and pillows very comfortable, kitchen excellent, and house nicely furnished. Would love a bit more lighting in the lounge area as it was a little dark, but that's the only thing that could take this from a 9/10 to a 10/10. Fantastic, highly recommend staying here.
The house is newly built and very spacious . Perfect for families with kids. Fully stocked bathroom and kitchen. The owner goes out of his way to provide smooth check in experience. Highly recommend!!

Me, my family and the staff are thrilled and appreciative of your kind words. We pride ourselves in challenging the status quo, to cater to our guest's needs the best way we can, and offering great value. If you are travelling to Melbourne again, don't hesitate to call us.
7 members of our US family stayed in this home while visiting Melbourne for a wedding. The home and amenities were exactly as advertised. I felt it was actually a little nicer than the pics portray. The backyard is lovely with St.Augustine grass, nice on bare feet. The host was quick to answer questions. The neighborhood is quiet and many grocers, cafes and shops within walking distance

Excellent property
Our stay at the Macpherson house was just wonderful, we had plenty of room for our group of nine and they all enjoyed their stay. The house is in a great location, close to the city, Flemington, shopping and public transport. We would certainly stay in this house again and recommend it to anyone who is looking for a house in Melbourne. The owner was also very helpful and prompt at responding to messages.

Excellent property exceeded all our expectations.
We could not have asked for any more than the property offered. It was clean, homely and very comfortable. We had 8 people in our party and the house offered plenty of spaces for us all. With two lounge area and TV's we could all watch what we wanted. We would stay at this property again and hihglyrecommend it to others looking for accommodation.

Thank you so much for your feedback! We are glad to hear that the property exceeded all your expectations. Thank you for your a generous and kind review. We look forward to welcoming you again.
This is an excellent 4 bedroom house with a great host surprisingly spacious and surprisingly close to the city. We had a hired car so never used public transport. We were surprised daily how quickly we got to the city and how central it was to other places around. It's a real hidden gem and amenities and security are top notch. I'll highly recommend this place in a quiet and peaceful neighbourhood
