Perfect for a couple or solo traveler, this restored 1940’s holiday flat is sunny, comfortable and a short walk to the most important views and walks in Katoomba.
The space A one bedroom holiday flat at ground level, just five minute walking distance to the famous Three Sisters and Echo Point. This is a perfect location for hiking.
The floor area is 40 sq. meters, larger than most studios and smaller than the average one bedroom urban apartment. It opens to shared garden spaces. There is a bedroom with a queen bed and built in wardrobe. The narrow bathroom has the original cast iron bath and basin. There is a hallway and a living room with dining table, lounge, TV/sound and a small kitchen. Please note there is no oven or dishwasher. There is however, an induction cooktop, microwave, electric fry pan, rice cooker, blender, toaster and jug. So you can definitely cook a meal if you don’t want to go out to one of the many restaurants and cafes in Katoomba and Leura.
The flat is sunny, insulated and well heated with a gas fire, electric column heater and electric blanket.
These apartments were purpose built as holiday flats in 1950. Rather than renovate we have restored them, keeping as many of the original features as possible. It is furnished with collected mid century items such as a 1960s Danish lounge and Eames dining table. We have attempted to create an interesting space that brings the original intent of the building back to life.
Other things to note
The flat is at ground level.
Remember that this flat has been 'restored' not 'renovated'. Most of the surfaces are original (floors, tiles, bath fittings, kitchen cabinets) and have had over 70 years of use. In some places they are scratched or might appear dusty (e.g. edges of bathroom tiles and toilet base, hardwood floors). Please appreciate the patina and be reassured that all surfaces have been well cleaned. We like the history, we hope you do as well.

The flat was perfect for us! It’s right down the street from Echo Point, which leads to trails and various bus routes. It ’s a little far from the main hustle of the small downtown area, but with the bus that wasn’t a problem. The flat was clean, had everything we needed, and the laundry was a great plus! I highly recommend this stay!
Nice, easy and simple spot! Had everything we needed.

About the host
Hosted by Tracey Mills
I host this property with my husband Tony. We live in Sydney but love to visit Katoomba to hike, eat and rest. We also love to travel.
Why they chose this property
What I love most about this property is that it is very close to dramatic hiking on all levels of difficulty.
I also appreciate that the property has history as a holiday flat from the early 1950s.
What makes this property unique
These flats were originally built as holiday flats. When we found them they were in original, if worn, condition. We have restored them carefully and filled them with collected mid-century items from Australia and Scandinavia.
