1A student’s guide to the building

What rooms and facilities does Iglu Summer Hill offer?

Compiled · 2026-11-06

Iglu Summer Hill is student accommodation at 74 Carlton Crescent in Sydney’s Summer Hill, offering furnished private studios, study rooms, a gym, a coffee and breakfast bar, and a courtyard. Students who want their own living space and are willing to commute by train can weigh their room needs against the journey to class.

The building retains the façade of the former Western Suburbs District Ambulance building.

Getting to the University of Sydney and the CBD

From Summer Hill, the train journey to the University of Sydney is about 25 minutes, and to Sydney CBD about 18 minutes.

Allow extra time to walk to the station, wait for a train and reach your teaching building. These train estimates help compare commutes; the full journey from your room to the classroom takes additional time.

Room types, indicative prices and applications

Operated by Iglu, the residence offers Standard Studio and Premium Studio. Applications for Semester 1 2027 are open.

Public indicative starting prices for 2026 are 735 Australian dollars per week for Standard Studio and 755 Australian dollars per week for Premium Studio. Both are sample room prices, subject to change, with availability for a specific move-in date unconfirmed.

Ask an adviser about current quotes, vacancies, move-in dates and rent inclusions.

Weighing up your options

Compare class times with your journey before deciding whether the commute works for you. During an inspection, explore the shared areas as well as your room to see whether the layout suits your habits. If you rarely use communal spaces, focus on the room and commute.
