This townhome is a delight! It has been beautifully restored with all the right modern updates in all the right places. The kitchen is good sized, with a stove any chef would enjoy, and a small bar for socializing with the cook. The living room is open to the dining room and large enough to host a full family but still feel cozy and homey enough to curl up with a good book by the fireplace. Upstairs the main bathroom has a full washer and dryer. Bedrooms are furnished with antiques to compliment the home's origins. The master suite has a large shower and closet which have both been tastefully updated for peak modern functionality.
As with any historic home it is in a neighborhood where some houses have yet to be restored and appear quite run-down. To me, this is all the more reason to choose to stay here, as it inspires investors to continue making improvements to the area. During our stay, Jack and his wife graciously gave us a tour of the connected townhomes, which are in the process of being restored, and a brief history of architecture in the area. The location in terms of proximity to attractions and restaurants is beyond ideal! We were within walking distance to the Freight House Farmer's Market, Mantra (our new favorite Indian restaurant), and Modern Woodman Park. For the younger crowd, or simply the young at heart, there were nearby parks and Poké Stops for Pokémon Go!
Overall, our VRBO experience was a little slice of heaven! We were able to relax and feel at home without the stressors of home, and we are looking forward to staying again in the future!
