Why Is RoomingKos Expanding to Fitzroy?

|

RoomingKos is proud to announce Johnston House, our latest rooming house project currently in development at 177 Johnston Street, Fitzroy VIC 3065.

Scheduled to launch in late 2026, Johnston House will deliver 20 fully furnished private bedrooms, providing safe, quality, and professionally managed accommodation in one of Melbourne’s most sought-after inner-city locations.

So, why Fitzroy?

The answer is simple: demand.

Fitzroy continues to attract students, young professionals, and renters seeking access to Melbourne’s universities, employment opportunities, public transport, and vibrant community lifestyle. The suburb is home to more than 10,000 residents, with a relatively young population and a strong rental market, reflecting the growing need for accessible housing options close to the CBD.

Projects like Johnston House are a direct response to the increasing pressure on Melbourne’s rental market. As affordability and housing supply remain ongoing challenges, RoomingKos remains committed to delivering reliable, quality, and safe accommodation in locations where people genuinely want and need to live.

The addition of Johnston House further strengthens our growing presence across Melbourne’s key rental demand corridors, allowing us to support more students and young professionals with community-focused living experiences.

We look forward to sharing more updates as the project progresses towards its late 2026 launch.
