This 2 floor home was built in the 1870s, so please be mindful of the original hardwood floors, and interior brick.

The bottom floor has a living room with a couch (sleeps 1 comfortably) large dining space, dedicated workspace, full kitchen, 2 seater bar, and bathroom.

Access to the back porch is from the kitchen, where you will find 4 chairs and an outdoor table. The string lights can be plugged in outside next to the door to light up this space.

The upstairs is where you will find both bedrooms.

The master bedroom has a queen bed (sleeps 2), and a master bathroom with 2 sinks, a shower, and jacuzzi tub. Fire up those jets! :)

The 2nd bedroom has a twin bed (sleeps 1), and a queen bed (sleeps 2).

Both bedrooms have spacious closets with hangers as well.

The guests will be able to access the entire home and the 1 car garage attached to the house. One door on the first floor is a locked utility closet.

The 1 car garage is currently in its original state from over 140 years ago. It opens and closes like barn doors and fits 1 sedan or SUV.

*If you drive a large truck it would be a tight fit pulling in from the alley, so we recommend using street parking.

*Please refer to the pictures and let us know if you have additional questions.

Additionally, we are German Village and Columbus experts, so if you need recommendations please ask.

Cute house in a cute village!

Such an amazing property! Our family enjoyed walking around the neighborhood. So many interesting houses! The neighbors were very friendly. Jacuzzi was really nice.We lucked out with their free garage parking space but bigger cars would still be able to park close by. It was in walking distance to many very popular bars and restaurants. It was only a few minutes drive from COSI and the Botanical gardens (the reason for our trip). Really great location to visit the city!

Great house, great location

I really enjoyed my stay here, and the location can’t be beat! Right off the highway, in a quiet historic neighborhood. The garage happily fit my Honda CRV with room to spare, check-in was easy. The neighborhood is great for walking, with a fantastic park and several good coffee shops. Will definitely stay here again next time I’m in town.

Overall, the stay was satisfactory for a one-night stay. The location is in an alley, and parking is inconvenient, as we had to park three blocks away since the garage they included is only for small cars. They said it has A/C, and while it was cool on the first floor, it was quite warm upstairs where the bedroom was, but they provided a fan, so that was helpful. Upon entering the house, it had a strong cleaning smell that caused some discomfort for us with sensitive smell. The closet in the upstairs bedroom had a deadbolt that only a key could open, and the light was still on inside, so it bothered us just a bit. Other than that, it is a neat neighborhood for shopping.

Would stay again

It was a lovely house with the usual Columbus parking. I will look for it again on the next trip as I would love to see more of that area. The only thing we had time for this round was the jet tub, which was excellent after the long drive.

Stopping through

Wonderfully large space on our way passing through Columbus. Convenience to stores and delivery options. Fenced in yard for ease with pups and potty time at night. Enjoyed the private parking & one of the world’s largest & most beautiful bathtubs ever! Found memories at our halfway point of travel. Would stay again if in the area!

Location, Location, Location

We came to Columbus for just one night to go to the WMU/OSU football game. The location was very convenient and German Village is an amazing area in Columbus. It feels very European walking around the village and was very convenient to get to and back from the game. We did not spend much time at the house - ate out at a wonderful German restaurant the host recommended and found a First Watch for breakfast before heading back to Michigan. Will come again.

Great host!

I would give this place a 5/5 stars. There are always some improvements to be made but it is a comfortable place to stay w/ a beautiful hot tub. I would recommend young people to middle aged people for this location. The stairs are very steep but they arent too bad. & It's right in the center of downtown, which is great but if you're from the country like we are and arent used to the outside noises, you should be prepared for that. But again, we were very grateful for our puppy being allowed to stay as well and a beautiful city scape in a nice area. The host was very responsive if we had any questions. Would stay again :) -Trisha

Charming vintage home

The location of the house was perfect for exploring the German village. The book loft is very walkable as are coffee shops and restaurants. Its takes a little longer to get to Schiller park but the streets along the way are pretty in summer and it feels like I imagine a European village might. The house is spacious. Bed was comfortable. The ac on the main level was a relief from the heat. Upstairs got a bit warm but the fans helped and the master bath is beautiful. The garage parking fit a Suburu outback.
