About this property

Spacious Craftsman Charmer

Welcome to a timeless treasure, a 105-year-old Craftsman masterpiece meticulously updated to embrace the essence of today`s modern living while preserving its historical charm.

You will just be minutes away from downtown and the football stadium. The property has a few bakeries within walking distance from it as well.

This Craftsman`s generous layout offers plenty of room for everyone in your group featuring 6 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 2 different living room spaces, a dining room with a table that seats 8 comfortably and a gorgeous brand new kitchen with a butlers pantry attached.

You will have access to the entire home and yard.

I can be reached by text, email or phone. I am also available most times to be on site if needed.

The house offers plenty of parking in the driveway (6 cars can fit) and more parking is available on the side street`s. The bus runs right by and it’s easy for Uber and Lyft to find the house.

House was wonderful just what we had hoped for a 40year college reunion get together. Was spacious but intimate with dining and living room so close to each other. All bedrooms were well maintained and fans in all the closets (hot weekend).

This home is fantastic! It’s spacious, beautifully remodeled and decorated, and stocked with everything you could possibly need. Kenneth was great at communicating and clearly pays attention to all the little details that make guests feel comfortable, such as providing hangers, toiletries, kleenex, plush towels, and having an extremely well stocked kitchen. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again!
