About the host
Hosted by Esther Boston
Hi! I’m a proud Indianapolis native and graduate of the Herron School of Art and Design. My love for art, music, the outdoors, and fine dining inspires everything I do—including hosting.
I’ve thoughtfully designed my space to be warm, creative, and relaxing, with little artistic touches throughout. Whether you’re here to unwind, explore the city, or enjoy a special getaway, I want your stay to feel comfortable, inspiring, and effortless.
In my free time, I’m often out hiking, visiting galleries, or trying out new restaurants around town. I love sharing local favorites and hidden gems, so don’t hesitate to ask for recommendations!

Whether it’s a local art gallery, a great live music spot, or an amazing restaurant, I’m just minutes away from all the creativity and culture Indy has to offer. I also love that there’s easy access to green spaces and trails—it’s a great place to relax, explore, and feel at home.
What makes this property unique
What makes my property truly special is its location and personality. Nestled in the heart of Broad Ripple, it’s just steps from Indy’s best local restaurants, cozy coffee shops, buzzing nightlife, scenic trails, and unique boutiques. You can park the car and explore everything on foot!
The home itself is full of charm, with curated touches inspired by my background in art and design. It’s a stylish, cozy space with natural light, original character, and a layout perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Whether you’re enjoying your morning coffee on the porch or winding down after a day in the city, it’s a place that feels like home.
