About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Historic, creative, close to downtown!

Historic, creative, close to downtown! Set aside day-to-day distractions to focus on writing or to simply relax. Grab a book from the library to read on a blue velvet sofa or in the backyard with the birds under the maple and walnut trees.

The kitchen has a stove, oven, microwave, refrigerator. and the pantry is stocked with dishes, pots, and pans, and a range of utensils for cooking or baking. There are two coffee makers: a single cup Keurig and OXO for larger pots.

There are several local coffee shops nearby if you prefer an active environment. But when you're ready to lay out materials on an inspiring desk, we have two! One is walnut with lyres carved into the base and a surface inlaid with sheet music. The other is Victorian walnut with a solid pull-out surface and many drawers and compartments. In the drawers, you'll find paper and pens. Each bedroom has a desk and a view of a red brick church through the pine branches. There are several lighting options, outlets for your laptop, and free wifi.

No parties. Please do not disturb the tenants next door. They have a gentle, friendly older dog who does not bark but may pop out in the yard with her owner.

The TV in the living room that has streaming apps. The house has a security system and we live about a mile away should you need anything.

The property was very unique in having a lot of antiques and interesting decorating throughout. The property was clean and comfortable. Kitchen had everything you'd need to prepare a meal. Location close to Interstate and convenient for getting around. Host was friendly and easy to reach.

Super cute place in a pretty great location! However the beds were fairly uncomfortable and lumpy. We also came back covered in red dots so we have slight concerns about bed bugs :(

We stayed here to attend a wedding, we had long days and when we needed to do laundry our host graciously stopped by around 10pm to drop off laundry detergent! Very helpful and accommodating. Also, this place has tons of character, the study desks came in handy!

Very Comfortable and Charming
This was a very comfortable, cozy and charming home. The kitchen was very well supplied. We appreciated the supply of not only coffee and tea, but coffeemate, snacks and bottled water. There were also several extra cozy blankets for getting comfy while watching Tv, etc.

Owner is very responsive and welcoming
This cozy and beautifully decorated house was exactly what we had expected. It was in a quiet neighborhood and parking was easy to find. Communication with the owner was easy and delightful. It was our first trip to Columbus Ohio and we were surprised how well the city was structured. Whole Foods and Costco are about 15 minutes away. We enjoyed our stay.

Eclectic home in a great location
We wanted to see all of Columbus and this house ended up being the perfect location between 5-20 minutes from anywhere we wanted to be. House was cozy and loved the decor. There was coffee and some snacks provided. We initially had difficulty setting up the Roku, but Constantine was quick to respond and stayed on the phone until we got it working. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Columbus and would definitely stay here again.

Adorable house
We enjoyed our stay there. About 15 mins from the OSU campus, 5 mins from Downtown, Kroger, and German Village. No problem with street parking by the house. Curb appeal is top notch. Insides are exactly like the listing promised. We will consider staying there again, for sure.

Conference at Columbus Convention Center
My adult son and I are professional engineers who attended the steel conference (AISTech) at the Columbus Convention Center. We had wanted to stay in something other than a 'regular hotel' and in this regard, this place worked quite well. The beds were very comfortable, the bedrooms were large and one had a very nice desk for working on. The rest of the house... living room, kitchen and bathroom were fine as well although we spent so much time at the conference that we barely were at the house other than for sleeping. We never had a problem finding parking right out front and the neighborhood (and inside the house) was quiet and conducive for a good sleeping... although there was evidence of homeless people on the street not too far away (however, this never was a problem and did not interfere with us). The bathroom isn't fancy but it worked (although I did wonder where the exhaust fan was located). One strong suggestion for the owner is that the brickwork leading up to the front door be fixed up. We never had a problem but there is some unevenness so that there is a potential for someone to twist an ankle. All in all when considering all the factors including cost and the convenience for driving daily to the convention center (10 minutes away), this place was a good choice and I'd stay here again.
