About this house rental
Welcome to our Character home!
The property was originally built in 1912, has been remodeled multiple times since, and definitely retains its character. It has new furnishings and lots of natural light. Fully fenced backyard backs up to the Kensington Plaza venues. There are a few rooms, and each one is decorated differently. All feature modern décor, bright pops of color, and cool artwork. Our property is spacious and freshly renovated. We recently replaced windows and window coverings, all floors, installed Air conditioning, and working on a couple projects to fully upgrade the unit.
You will find everything you need to ensure a relaxing and comfortable stay.
The unit offers 2 floors of living space, 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and an open concept kitchen/ living area ideal for entertaining/ family time.
The ground floor features a sitting area, TV, a dining space, kitchen with necessary appliances and full bathroom.

If I could give 4.5 I would!Great host, awesome stay. Had all the amenities! Negatives, back parking is hard to find but they give a map, and smells a bit of mildew (nothing candles didn't fix)
