Alexandria at a Glance
Why Live in Alexandria?
Alexandria is an appealing spot for couples, 12 minutes from Sydney CBD with Sydney Park, Power Station conversion for weekends and good transport in the City of Sydney area. It balances a social shared-home setting with the privacy of your own room together.
Alexandria is the former industrial heart of inner Sydney — warehouses now hold breweries, design showrooms and large format cafes; quiet residential pockets sit between.
The Grounds of Alexandria sets the tone for the suburb's food scene; Bourke Road and McEvoy Street carry most of the activity; Erskineville and Green Square stations both serve the area.
Street life: The Grounds for brunch, Three Williams and Bread & Circus for coffee, Young Henrys brewery on Wilson Street for evenings.
On the weekend: Sydney Park (the old brickworks) and the Alexandria Park sports fields are both close by.
For anyone considering coliving in Sydney, Alexandria is often a smart place to start because it combines accessibility, flexibility, and local lifestyle in one suburb.

| Bills | Managed separately | One fortnightly payment |
| Furniture | May not be included | Fully furnished rooms |
| Property quality | Can vary significantly | Professionally managed |
| Cleaning | Depends on housemates | Regular cleaning |
| Move-in process | Can be complicated | Simpler, faster |

Trust & Safety
Shared living, without the risk
Most share houses quietly rule couples out, and the ones that do not rarely say how it works. Every CDA home and resident is screened and managed, and couples are accommodated openly rather than case by case.
Housemates who know the arrangement
Every resident is ID-verified and reference-checked, and the household knows a couple is part of the home before anyone moves in — no awkward renegotiation later.
Professionally managed homes
CDA manages each property directly, with coordinated cleaning of shared spaces and clear house standards, so the home stays in good shape long after you move in.
Maintenance handled for you
Something breaks, you lodge a ticket and our team handles it. No chasing landlords or splitting repair costs with housemates.
One room, one clear price
Couple pricing is set out up front with all bills included and no traditional bond, so there is no per-person surcharge appearing after you apply.
