Transforming a Sydney CBD Residence into a High-Performing Short-Term Rental
Interior Design
Sydney
Property Overview
This stunning 3-bedroom apartment is located in the heart of Sydney CBD and was originally the owner’s primary residence. In 2024, the owner approached 360 Lease with the goal of converting it into a high-yield short-term rental property.
While the owner moved out part of the furniture, they sought our expertise to upgrade the interior, enhance the property’s appeal, and maximise rental returns through short-term leasing.
Challenges Faced
Seamless Interior Alignment
The existing furniture needed to be blended with new furnishings to create a cohesive and stylish aesthetic.
Optimised Presentation
The property required high-quality photography to attract guests across multiple booking platforms.
Maximising Rental Revenue
While Sydney CBD offers strong long-term rental returns, the owner wanted to generate higher income through short-term stays.
Comprehensive Property Management
The owner needed a full-service management solution, from listing setup to daily operations.
