Tranquil In-Town Garden Carriage House

Lovely, secluded, roomy 700 sq foot carriage house with private entrance in tranquil setting welcomes you—and your pets (no pet fee)! Bubbling fountain, vegetable and flower gardens, and a place to cookout. Your home-away-from-home has every amenity, including a thick queen-sized bed, new kitchen, new washer-dryer, and spa shower/bathroom. Very spacious (check the reviews!), even more so with Murphy bed up. Two space garage if needed. WIFI, YouTubeTV, Apple TV, Netflix, HBO, Hulu, Amazon Prime, Paramount+.

Note that this carriage house has been extensively reviewed on Airbnb, where I am a superhost with a near 5.0 rating--best rating in Cincinnati! Check out the reviews: tinyurl.com/w3cvdbha

The carriage house is fronted by an enclosed garden that springs to life each March. Bubbling fountain and vegetable patch. The carriage house has been entirely renovated with wood-beam 11-foot ceiling, lovely exposed brick walls, spa bathroom and new kitchen. Fold up queen-sized Murphy bed (it's really thick and comfortable) means you have a large daily living space.

Like the 1880s classic Cincinnati mansion that it sits behind, the main house and separate carriage house are a preservationist dream. The property is on quiet, shady "Millionaire's Row" in the Dayton St. Historic District. 3 minute drive/15 minute walk from historic Findlay Market with its indoor and outdoor food stands and restaurants. Dozens of restaurants and boutique shopping are within minutes in Over-the-Rhine. 5 minutes to the opera, symphony, Shakespeare Theatre and Washington Park, which has outdoor events almost every day and a great pet park — and has underground parking making it very accessible. Theatre is minutes away. 10 minutes to Kroger grocery store and downtown where the baseball and football stadiums are located. New soccer stadium is 5 minutes away by car, 15 minute walk.

Guest access
You enter the house via a private locked gate to the side of main house front entrance ... path takes you through the tranquil back yard to the carriage house door. There is also a separate entrance via the 2-car garage in the back underneath the carriage house (accessible via an alley street behind the main house)...up a few stairs into the garden and to your secure, private entrance door.

Animal limit: 2 pets, with no pet fee charge! No pet supplies provided, so bring what you need to attend to them. Would consider additional pet/s for a negotiated fee.

Early arrival or late checkout: If you desire an early check in (as early as noon) or late check out (as late as 5p), just let me know and we will make it happen if there are no conflicts.

Adorable carriage house/pretty garden area
This home is a well done , comfortable carriage house behind the owner's home. It is nicely done for a huge one room area- a nice size kitchen, a wonderful shower, a comfy bed and a comfortable roomy living space. The owner was very responsive to messages and has obviously put a lot of thought and care into his VRBO rental. The street has some very nice homes that have been redone or are being renovated. I attended a conference literally right around the corner and felt safe to walk to and from but not alone as a female. It is not an area I would take a walk in myself so I would caution renters to consider the area. I love to walk and felt a bit stifled in that regard.

Perfect spot for a weekend getaway but also has everything you would need for a longer visit! At first glance the neighborhood looked less than ideal, however, once we checked in and got a feel for the area, we felt safe and were surprised at how quiet it was. Jon was a great host and answered any questions within minutes. Will definitely be back!

Weekend stay
We traveled to Cincinnati to visit our son at the University of Cincinnati. We wanted to stay close without paying the outrageous hotel prices or travel from further out for cheaper hotel rooms. The drive was less than 10 minutes from campus. The rental was perfect for what we were looking for in our visit. We plan to use this place for our future stays.

Relaxing garden oasis
Upon arriving to the property we were greeted by a relaxing and tranquil garden that was even more beautiful than the photos in the listing reflect. The on-street parking was easy, safe and well lit. The carriage house offered comfort, cleanliness and all the amenities of home. Our 2 dogs loved being able to stretch their legs by roaming free within the fenced in garden area. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Cincinnati and this property gave us the perfect location to rest and refresh. Its close proximity to downtown allowed for a short drive (or Uber ride) to anywhere we wanted to go. Delicious food options, outdoor parks with walking trails and historical things to see/do are all moments away from this property. All communications with Jon were seamless and prompt. We definitely recommend this property to anyone looking to visit the area.

The carriage house was a gem!
We were very pleased with the location and carriage home. The bed was comfy and the shower pressure was amazing! We walked to Findlay Market almost daily and walked from the river back home from a Reds game. The full size gas stove was great for preparing breakfast and the fridge was just large enough to stock everything we needed for a week. The garden was beautiful and we felt like we had plenty of privacy. Jon let us use the garage for our huge lifted Jeep and it fit just fine. We normally use Uber, but Jon recommended Lift and that was a better choice for Cincy. Overall, we’d love to stay here again!
