  accommodation & location details


Situated in the heart of Newtown, STUCCO houses a total of 38 people in 8 self-contained units. There are six 5-bedroom terraces and two 4-bedroom flats, all of which face onto a fantastic, leafy courtyard. In each unit there is a kitchen, phone and bathrooms. We have a common a laundry with two washing machines. Each household decides how it will be run. Some may have communal cooking and a cleaning roster, whereas other units may be less strict. There is also a hall with a piano and pool table, beautiful gardens and a sundeck.


cost of living

Rent at STUCCO is one of the cheapest at just $70 per week, and this is primarily due to it being run as a cooperative. Whilst STUCCO picks up the gas bill, each unit is individually billed for their electricity and phone usage. The only other costs you will incur is a bond of , equal to 4 weeks rent.
