About this property
Prof's Place: by IU Stadium, Griffy Lake/Woods
Enjoy a peaceful, totally private, newly renovated ground level home featuring hardwood floors, quartz countertops, and top of the line appliances. Set on 2 quiet, wooded acres, this space offers a calm, restorative environment just steps from the IU football stadium, other sports arenas, Assembly Hall, Griffy Lake, and the IU golf course.
This is an ideal retreat for guests seeking comfort, nature, and convenience — not a suitable space for parties, loud gatherings, or high traffic stays.
THE SPACE A spacious and thoughtfully furnished 1200 sq ft home designed for relaxation and quiet enjoyment, and with everything you need for comfortable home living.
- Large living room with twin sofa bed - Dining area - Two bedrooms (each with a queen bed) - Study with queen sofa bed - Huge, fully equipped kitchen - Full bath - Top-of-the-line laundry machines
The home is bright, airy, and surrounded by forest views — perfect for guests who value peace and comfort.
GUEST ACCESS Guests have full access to the entire private, self-contained ground-level unit with its own entrance, no stairs, plenty of natural light, and beautiful views of the woods. The utility/furnace room and garage remain locked. Guests can easily park at least three cars on the driveway.
OTHER THINGS TO NOTE Your unit is directly below the homeowner (an IU professor) who lives upstairs, and this is a quiet household. We maintain a peaceful environment and will be respectful of your stay — we kindly ask that guests do the same.
- This listing is best suited for quiet, considerate travelers. - No parties, gatherings, or loud group activities of any kind are permitted. - Quiet hours are strictly 10pm–7am. - Please review all House Rules before booking to ensure this is the right fit for your stay.
If you’re looking for a calm, comfortable home base close to IU and nature, I'd be delighted to host you.
REGISTERED GUESTS ONLY The primary guest/renter must be at least 25 years old. The maximum number of guests is six. I can use the exterior Ring security camera to check that the number of guests entering the premises matches the number you indicated when you made the booking. (There are no interior cameras anywhere.)
