About this apartment rental

New additions mix with restored historical details to help this 1888 home feel ahead of its time. Tucked into a quintessential SE neighborhood, discover a custom blend of vintage allure and modern comfort in our moody 3-bedroom, 2-bath home. Featured in Sunset Magazine and more, every surface and system has been redone by the owner, who operates a green building firm, along with local designers and architects, to create a one-of-a-kind curated experience.

You`ll be greeted by the neon numbers of this eggplant-black house and a front door that is decidedly modern, tall and skinny, on the small front porch. Step into the living room where the warm palette sets a cozy tone: Eleven-foot ceilings, mahogany wainscot and trim, the tin ceiling and the troweled plaster walls... There is an upright piano, plentiful seating arrangements and an office nook. Unique light fixtures and colors add a touch of personality, casting an enchanting glow throughout the space.

The living room gives way to an open kitchen/eating area where rustic floors meet crisp, locker-like metal cabinets, a marble backsplash, handsomely retrimmed windows. Stainless steel, industrial appliances and a fully stocked kitchen allows you to be the culinary creative you`ve always wanted to be. The 10- by 10-foot tower allows sunlight from 11 windows facing north and east travel through an open loft space above the kitchen to the main floor’s living spaces. Venture outside to the large patio, a secluded oasis where you can unwind, dine, or simply soak up the ambiance.

Skylights and exposed original rafters are visible in the hallway. A hall wall, covered in white mirrors large and small, throws light and interest from floor to roofline. The three bedrooms are styled with vintage flair, retaining as much of the rooms original molding as possible, and offer a comfortable retreat for a restful night`s sleep. The primary room has a King bed and a wash room, or water closet just outside of it. Plenty of storage in the dresser and closet. Around the corner you`ll find a whimsical bunk room, outfitted with a Twin bed up top and a Full bed below. The shower room in the hallway has glazed porcelain tile, colored to look like metal, while the glass ceiling pulls in light and reveals the rafters above. Metallic elements mingle with warm woods for contrast. Narrow stairs to a transformed attic nook tucks away a Queen vintage bed, powder-coated cyan blue. The operate skylight window and open rafters create an open yet private feeling and is perfect for a retreat or quiet nap.

Last but not least, cascade your way to the basement -- with the 2nd bathroom, shower room & sauna! A washer & dryer is available for use and an exit door to the backyard is also on this level.

Nestled in a vibrant neighborhood, this is your gateway to local gems and cultural experiences. Immerse yourself in the moody elegance of this vintage haven and create lasting memories in a home that seamlessly marries nostalgia and modernity.

Guests will enjoy exclusive access to the entire main floor, patio, yard, attic and basement area -- except that the laundry machines will be shared with the owner, who resides on a very part-time basis in the completely separate basement studio with its own entrance on the west side of the home. Please reach out with any questions or concerns.

We had a wonderful time and is in a great location. House was cute and fully stocked the only thing I was not a fan of was the way the toilet and shower are in different rooms made it a little inconvenient and the queen bed being upstairs with no bathroom I would switch it to the down stairs room, but nothing major will stay again if I return

this place was absolutely amazing. From the cozy feel of the home to the relaxing sauna, this home made it easy to be comfortable.
6 / 10Average·Jul 2026
We stayed for three nights. It was warm outside and only one box fan for house. There is air conditioning but it did not distribute through the large house. First floor bedrooms were warm. Second floor bedroom was really hot, so we did not use it. More disturbing is the ant traps on kitchen counters near the stove. The other counter where the sink is, ants came in through the window and all over that counter. They did provide ant spray, under the sink. The house looks so pretty in the pictures. Lots of plants. Well, most of those plants were still there but dead. I would not stay here again. It could be really nice with a really good cleaning and TLC.
