The property clean and as described, the décor was retro and interesting. It was in a good location and the unit was well stocked. The parking was a little trying but it did work. If I were returning to the area I would stay there again. It has the easiest check out process of anywhere we have stayed.

About the host

Hosted by joseph

Host profile image
HI, I'm a professor at one of the local colleges. I just spent the past 2 years renovating this space which is attached to my house. I've lived in Burlington since 99 so I know the town pretty well. Come visit, the space is really fun and so is Burlington.

Why they chose this property

Great downtown location. 7 minute walk to Church St. Close to Champlain College and UVM. 15 minute walk to the lake. Historic 1845 house sits on large fenced in yard with great people watching porch.

What makes this property unique

The apartment is located on the second floor of an 1845 Federal style brick house. You enter through a common mudroom into a dining room. Off of the dining room, there are private stairs that lead up into the apartment. You also have access to your own private porch, off of the mudroom, as well as a fenced in yard with comfy patio furniture.

The space is such a great mix of new and old. It's completely renovated but carefully nestles in a historic 1845 Federal style brick building. Exposed bricks and beams, brand new hardwood floors, new appliances, quartz counters, a really comfortable bathroom with open stand-up shower next to a claw foot tub. The apartment is decorated with lots of local Vermont art and history.
