The Carriage House Loft at Marion Hall Mansion

Stay in the Fully Renovated Carriage House Loft at the Historic Marion Hall Mansion

Step into the original 1897 stables of the Enger family carriage house, now transformed into a bright, stylish 1,000 sq ft private loft with soaring 12' ceilings, exposed brick, and modern designer furnishings.

The space is rich in both history and comfort. Once part of the estate of Frank Enger—founder of the Enger Motor Company—you’ll now enjoy amenities that make this one-of-a-kind loft feel like home.

Highlights of the Loft:
Massive chef’s kitchen island + fully equipped kitchen

Spa-style new bathroom with updated fixtures

Dedicated workspace for remote professionals

Cozy lounge area — perfect for wine or movie nights

High ceilings, original brick, curated modern decor

On the Grounds:
Enjoy full access to the 1.8-acre gated property, featuring:

Lush garden paths and private seating areas

Secluded spots to relax with coffee or cocktails

Free gated parking for 1 vehicle (additional free street parking)

Perfect For:
Traveling professionals, nurses, and doctors

University visitors (Xavier & UC)

Couples or small families on a getaway

History lovers and architecture buffs

We’ve preserved the original charm of the stables while adding every modern touch to make your stay both inspiring and comfortable.

A Special Stop!

The carriage house was an interesting and super comfortable place to stay with our two dogs. The bed is especially comfy- we have been in dog-friendly Air B&B’s for the past 6 weeks, so I say this with lots of comparison sleeps! The neighborhood is interesting and the grounds are beautiful- we felt lucky to be guests there!

Unique Accommodations in a Classic Neighborhood

This is a wonderful place to stay. It is in a classic neighborhood full of late 19th and early 20th Century estates. The rental is quiet and secluded within a large landscaped property behind the main house. The carriage house rental needs a little attention to make it stellar. none-the-less we recommend the Carriage House
