About this property

Historic Downtown Carriage House

This upstairs apartment is in a classic looking 1920's stone carriage house in a prime location in center of historic downtown Flagstaff. The property is entirely enclosed with a quaint lighted stone and cedar wall with free off-street parking, stone fire pit and sitting terrace, trees, seasonal flowers and vines, and grassy lawn (Please Note: they all lose their foliage during winter months. Yes, some guests have asked why the landscape color is gone in the winter time ... :). You'll be within just a few minutes walking distance to dozens of shops, restaurants, nightlife, and public transportation. It's warm, cozy, secluded, accessible - you’ll love my place because of the ambiance, the location, and the lighted enclosed exterior and fire-pit stone terrace. This is a perfect place for all types of travelers and activities.

This malapai stone house is a perfect mix of classic and modern, with warm wood interiors and modern updates, including hydronically heated wood floors and a freshly remodeled bathroom. The kitchen is original with a few aesthetic improvements, and the queen bed is new and comfortable. In addition, the entire house is on a charcoal filtration water system.

I’m sorry you were not aware that the apartment is upstairs Lisa, however, it’s in the first line of the property description :-) I’ll try to be more clear that I also live on the property.

A really lovely apartment, beautifully furnished. The host is gracious and friendly and my wife and I had a very good time. Off-street parking, walking distance to the. most interesting parts of Flagstaff’s historic center. (Note: you climb a flight of stairs to get to the apartment, which is on the second floor.)

Joe gave us a tour of the property when we arrived and made sure we have everything we needed including providing a secure indoor location to store our mountain bikes. We were 6 minutes from the museum of northern Arizona and 8 minutes from the Schultz creek trail system (beautiful) the home was clean, comfortable and we wished we were staying longer.

It was such a lovely charming place to stay! A nice blend of the historic building's charm and updated in practical ways, and the location is absolutely fantastic, within nice short walking distance of many good places in downtown Flagstaff, but not overly close to the highway either. The host was very helpful and accommodating when meeting to go over things initially.

About the host

Hosted by Jac Shinaman

Host profile image
My name is John, but I go by Jac. I grew up in Upstate New York, but I've lived and worked in beautiful Flagstaff, Arizona for over 40 years. I’m retire from my job in Astrogeology for the U.S Geological Survey (solar system research and mapping). It was a great career in a great place. I have four grown children, all boys. They are the center of my world! I love outdoor sports, adventure, and travelling to meet new people and see new places. I hope my road takes me to you, or yours takes you to me! Cheers!

Why they chose this property

The neighborhood is the old residential west side part of Flagstaff. However, it's also right on the edge of the downtown district and in easy walking distance to everything the city has to offer. City Hall, Wheeler Park, and the public library are just one block away; Northern Arizona University is seven blocks to the south; Flagstaff High School is two blocks north; and Lowell Observatory, Thorpe Park, the local softball fields, and one of Flagstaff's famous disc golf courses are just six blocks to the west. In addition, Basha's grocery store is six blocks up Humphreys Street. This is a classic property in a classic location!
