About this listing
What We Love
Petite Maison is a freshly renovated one bedroom, ground floor apartment in a historic terrace on a tree-lined street in Potts Point, Sydney, about a 5 minute walk from Kings Cross Station. It sleeps 2 guests in a double bedroom, with a private patio opening to a shared courtyard, a dedicated study area, wifi and ethernet, and a compact kitchenette. There is no on-site parking.
It suits couples wanting a European-style village base close to the city, solo travellers and corporate guests needing a workspace and quick train access to the CBD, and longer stays.
Living & Kitchenette
Step inside to an open plan layout where light-filled living and dining spaces flow together, with premium timber floors throughout. The compact kitchenette has a plug-in Smeg hob, microwave, fridge, toaster, kettle and coffee maker, ideal for simple breakfasts and light meals. A study area carved into the layout makes working from home easy.
Sleep & Bathroom
The bedroom is your private retreat, with a double bed, a wall-mounted TV with Netflix and streaming services, and direct access to the patio. The designer bathroom has clean lines and a walk-in shower, with shampoo, conditioner, body wash and a hair dryer supplied.
Patio & Courtyard
The patio opens onto a lovely courtyard shared with residents in the immediate community. Next door is the Cassandra Bird Gallery, which occasionally hosts intimate events in the courtyard, such as jazz nights, and guests are welcome to join.

The Neighbourhood
- Mornings: Start the day at PIÑA, where great coffee and a sun-drenched setting draw devotees from across the city, or Room Ten for specialty coffee and pastries. Then explore the tree-lined streets, vintage boutiques, independent bookshops and the Saturday markets at Fitzroy Gardens.
- Dining: As evening falls, Potts Point becomes one of Sydney's best dining destinations. The Apollo is famous for its Greek flavours, from honey-drizzled saganaki to slow-cooked lamb shoulder, and Fratelli Paradiso brings warm hospitality and classic Italian pasta. Dear St Eloise serves a seasonal modern Australian menu, and Cho Cho San and Chaco Bar offer acclaimed Japanese dining. Intimate wine bars, leafy courtyards and late-night cocktail spots complete the scene.
- Harbour & Parks: The Royal Botanic Garden's sweeping lawns and waterfront paths are perfect for morning runs, picnics and sunset strolls, and Mrs Macquaries Chair has panoramic views across Sydney Harbour to the Opera House and Harbour Bridge.
- City Life: The Rocks, Darling Harbour, the Queen Victoria Building and Pitt Street Mall are all an easy train or car trip away.
Kings Cross Station connects you to the CBD and Bondi Junction in minutes, buses run along William Street, and Uber and GoGet car share are readily available.

- The property backs onto a restaurant in a lively part of Potts Point, so some restaurant noise should be expected in the evenings.

- There is no on-site parking.
- This is a smoke-free property, and pets are not permitted.
