This charming historical home is close to everything! You can be downtown within 5 minutes. You'll be minutes from the stadiums, museums, and the casino! Pamper yourself. Relax in the hot tub while listening to the sounds of the waterfall over the pond. Watch the colorful Koi splash and play. The meticulously landscaped grounds have countless surprises and beauty in every season. You will enjoy every comfort in this luxurious three-bedroom and 2.5 baths. There's even a shower for your furbaby! You have the whole house to yourself. It was built in 1933 and is packed with original details and Craftsman charm, including hardwood floors, built-ins, and stained glass doors and lights. The three comfortable bedrooms feature televisions, plenty of linens, and all that you'll need for a cozy visit. There are two living room areas, a laundry room, 2.5 bathrooms, a well-stocked kitchen, and a dining room and bar/ breakfast nook area. There is also a large office space that has all that you need to set up an efficient workspace for those working remotely. The outdoor space is a total retreat! You will feel like you've traveled to some remote place with the waterfall, pond, pergola, hot tub, firepits, BBQ Grill, and other outdoor amenities. We welcome small to medium dogs for a pet pet fee. (3 max) Unfortunately, the property is not suitable for large breed dogs. There is a private driveway for off-street parking, and there is ample free on-street parking as well. You can easily walk through the neighborhood, and there is an excellent butcher / market nearby, as well as an awesome gym, and an adorable, award-winning coffee shop. The house was featured on the 2017 Brighton Heights house tour and was featured in the North Side Chronicle. Additionally, it has been photographed for its professionally landscaped gardens.

This was perfect stay for our family in town for a funeral. The owners were extremely responsive and miraculously secured an a/c repairman immediately when we noticed it not working. The home and grounds were a welcome beautiful hidden gem as respite for our grief.
