About this property

Spectacular home in prime location close to venues, hospitals, and universities.

We took our time renovating this bright and welcoming 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath apartment so you can truly enjoy the best of comfortable, easy living. The open layout, thoughtful updates, and great amenities make it a place you’ll love coming home to. Both bedrooms feature queen-sized beds, plush carpeting, and generous closet space—perfect for unwinding after a full day.

There’s plenty of room to spread out, whether you’re settling in for a movie night, hosting friends for dinner, or enjoying a cozy wine-and-cheese evening for two.

Located on the second floor and ideally situated near Rochester’s arts and entertainment districts, top restaurants, universities, and hospitals, this apartment makes getting around a breeze. Highland Hospital and Strong are just a quick side-street commute away, with the Eastman Theatre and Auditorium Theatre close by as well. Ideal for a short visit or an extended stay if you’re in Rochester for a few weeks.

Lovely, spacious, and meticulously maintained—this is sure to become your favorite home away from home.

The whole place was great!The bedrooms were comfortable, the kitchen was furnished with anything that we would have needed to make meals, though we didn't do any cooking this trip. Appreciated that there was a full bath and a half bath and the number of clean towels! The living room was comfy and we appreciated the streaming services provided during our down time. This gem is located in a very nice neighborhood yet just a few minutes drive to the university campus. I was very pleased that off street parking was provided!Loved this place and would book it again!Dorene

This is a great apartment in a quiet area with off street parking and centrally located to many areas. It is nicely decorated, clean, comfortable and has quality linens. We had no issues at all during our stay. Melanie was communicative and responded to messages right away. She was also very helpful in getting an item back after accidentally leaving without it. Would definitely stay here again.

The neighborhood is very quiet and parking is easy. The apartment is very tastefully finished and decorated. There are 2 bedrooms that lend some privacy as they are located on opposite sides of the apartment. The shower is fantastic, with beautiful tile and natural light. Everything seems quite new! In general, a lovely 2 bedroom with 1 bathroom.
