Details
Journal Campus House (172 Bouverie Street, Carlton) is marketed as an all‑inclusive student co‑living building located immediately opposite the University of Melbourne and within short walking or tram distance of RMIT, Trinity College and other Parkville campuses. The development emphasizes proximity to Melbourne’s CBD and cultural amenities (Queen Victoria Market, Melbourne Museum, Lygon Street dining) and public transport (Parkville station ~330 m, Melbourne Central ~980 m, major tram and rail links nearby).
Accommodation mix and pricing
The building offers a range of room types and apartment configurations for single and multiple residents, from studios (standard to large corner suites, 16–35 m²+) to 2–4 bedroom ensuite apartments and shared twin studios. Published rates span from approximately A$459 per week up to about A$859 per week depending on room type and size; individual room listings show detailed pax/bathroom counts and m² for comparison. Prospective residents can select specific rooms when booking directly (subject to availability), request to room with friends, or join waitlists for popular types.
Included services and facilities

Onsite operational and convenience features listed include two cafes, laundry, a building app, parcel handling via reception, bike share, and optional airport pickup via a partnered provider (contact reception for pricing).

Bookable rooms and curated event programming (rooftop BBQs, market trips, weekend surf trips, cultural celebrations) are promoted to support community building.
