Committed to transforming properties into stylish, sustainable homes for all
We started Urban Nests as a way to share our passion to tackle an ever-worsening rental crisis by providing a comfortable private home for single people looking for a safe and secure place to call home. Every nest is unique, with hand-picked decor to match the special theme curated by our interior designers. Each dwelling is fully self-contained with its own bathroom, toilet, kitchenette, shower, and study.

We offer a variety of rooms to suit every need, from cosy and intimate to spacious and luxurious. All of our rooms are beautifully appointed with comfortable furnishings and modern amenities. All our dwellings are furnished and self-contained. We take away the stress of sourcing furniture and securing a place with affordable rent, while not compromising on comfort and choice to live on your own terms. We are providing significant assistance to people currently in rental stress and looking for affordable, high-quality, self-contained accommodation.

We purposely upgrade homes and rent them out. We choose these homes based on proximity to public transport, access to shops and amenities, access to major universities, and arterial routes. Our spaces offer a lifestyle that is conducive to modern urban living. We try to remain closer to the city in the locality. We offer dwellings that make it possible to explore your natural environment and to undertake fun activities such as hiking, biking, fishing, and more in the great outdoors. Explore historic landmarks, art galleries, and quaint shops in nearby attractions.
