Who this room is for
It suits students who spend a lot of time in their room, want space for a proper desk setup, and like the idea of a private retreat inside a social, boutique home.
The room
A generous private room with room for a full study setup and more, a comfortable bed and good natural light, plus a shared bathroom and the run of the kitchen and lounge. There are 4 large rooms in the house, so this is the type we can most often place you in.
Where it sits in the house
INSULR Glebe is one house with 7 rooms across two floors, not a corridor of identical units. The plan below shows every room, so you can see exactly where the 4 large rooms are in relation to the kitchen, the bathrooms and the front door.
Every large room in the house
There are four of them, each a little different in outlook and light. One is free right now.
What the room does not have
Worth saying plainly, because the aggregator sites have not always got it right. This room does not have its own bathroom. Every bathroom in the house is shared, cleaned weekly, and there is no ensuite anywhere in the building. There is no kitchenette in the room; cooking happens in the one shared kitchen, which has everything you need and a big table. There is no laundry inside the house either, but there is a laundromat directly across the road. If any of that is a deal breaker, better to know now than on move in day.
Living here day to day
You get a key and secured access around the clock, with security cameras on the outside of the building. The shared areas are cleaned every week, so the kitchen and bathrooms stay the way you would want to find them. WiFi is unlimited and already connected. Rent is one weekly figure with every bill inside it, so you never split a power bill with a housemate or wait for an account to be set up.
Getting around is easy. The Glebe Light Rail stop is 2 min on foot, the University of Sydney is about 20 min away on foot, and UTS is 12 min by light rail. Glebe Point Road, with its cafes and the weekend markets, is the street you live on.
Bond, lease and moving in
The bond is four weeks of rent, held and returned at the end of your lease subject to the usual condition check. The minimum lease is six months, and leases never end in December, so a mid year start runs through to January rather than leaving you looking for somewhere over the summer. Viewings are in person, or live over video if you are still overseas, and we usually reply the same day.
What is included in the large room rate
There are no separate bills at INSULR. Your weekly rent covers furniture, electricity, gas, water, unlimited WiFi and weekly cleaning of the shared areas, with 24/7 secured access and security cameras on site. Read the full breakdown on our all bills included page.
