Description

A gorgeous pied-a-terre in the heart of the city, overlooking The Botanical Gardens and Sydney Harbour. One block from the Opera House, The Astor is Sydney’s first high rise apartment building. Now 102 years old, the building is a grand example of 1923 Inter War Free Classical style 20th architecture in Australia.

The apartment was beautifully renovated 5 years ago by esteemed architect Iain Halliday of Burton Katon Halliday (BKH) reflecting the
elegance and tradition of The Astor in its superb modernizing for 21st century living.

It is compact but offers all the amenities one requires for a short stay in Sydney, including one of the best locations. The stunning design highlights the main bedroom with period inspired silk panelling, extensive built-ins and ensuite WC. The custom-designed gas kitchen includes marble benchtops and breakfast bar, integrated fridge and Miele appliances. The luxurious marble bathroom with freestanding bath, shower and twin vanities, includes a concealed laundry. The apartment is fully air conditioned with high speed internet, smart TV and concierge.

The Astor roof terrace with its generous rooftop loggia is an oasis, unique in its size and offering spectacular Opera House, Harbour and Botanic Garden views.

Fabulous in every way!

Our stay in Penny's gorgeous Parisian style apartment was absolutely wonderful! From the start, Penny was so lovely, sending through lots of helpful information in the lead up to our arrival. What can I say, the views are incredible, as is the location, just a short walk to the Opera House and Circular Quay. We enjoyed daily strolls through the Botanical Gardens, dining out at local restaurants and ferry rides to the beaches. The styling of the apartment is stunning, great kitchen with everything you need, including barista coffee machine. Beautiful bathroom and very clever use of space so the home felt larger than the pictures. Thank you Penny for hosting us, I highly recommend this as a 5 star Third Home stay :)”
