About this space

Tranquil Farmhouse - Kerrytown Historic District

STR21-2054:Cook dinner in a beaming kitchen with nut-brown plank floors and dine with family and friends at a trendy handmade table. With its vivid original artworks, pops of cool colors, and modern furnishings, this guesthouse feels at once magical and restful.

This is a complete, private apartment with two private entrances in a duplex house. It is on the first floor of the building and the entrances are on the side and back. The upstairs unit enters at the front of the building. The description says 'entire place' but that means entire first floor, totally private.

Newly renovated space with all new furniture and kitchen appliances. Decorated in a modern farmhouse style with touches of m odern and all original abstract expressionism art by owner.

The entire floor is available for you only. Also, we have a Guesthouse upstairs with a door that connects. Of course, you control the lock on your side of the door! If you rent both guesthouses and open the door between we can sleep 10!

The house is set in the Kerrytown district, a historic enclave boasting vibrant boutiques, charming eateries, and artsy cafes. Across the street is the Kerrytown Market and Shops, while the Ann Arbor Farmers Market is just a stone's throw away.

A private space is provided for parking but there is a bus line a block away as well. Street parking and parking lots within the block.

We have provided ear plugs in case you are a light sleeper. Remember you are in downtown Ann Arbor and street noise is common although it does quieten down as the night progresses as most everything is closed on the street except for a bar three doors down.

About Nina Howard

Ann Arbor Vacation Rentals by Nina Howard My life is ruled by my 5 pound dog, Ling-Ling. I never thought a tiny dog could have such power over me! When I am not playing with her, I am busy running 5 Guest Houses in Ann Arbor or painting and gardening at my mini-farm in the mountains. I call North Carolina mountains my home but travel back and forth to Ann Arbor, enjoying my time in one of the 5 Guest Houses. What a life! Nina Howard purchased this apartment in 1901 Why Nina Howard chose Ann ArborThe growing demand for short term rentals (or vacation rentals) in the downtown Ann Arbor area have propelled me to continue to expand my offering. This sweet apartment is located in the old Pasadena Apartment Building on Division Avenue. The building is over 100 years old but the interiors have been completely renovated including newly refinished floors, walls, kitchen, bath making it a jewel box, much like a pied-à-terre in central downtown Ann Arbor. What makes this apartment uniqueClose to everything. Within walking distance to U of M (near Diag), U of M Museum, Law School, library, restaurants, shopping. Park your car behind this Guest House and walk to everything including the Big House (U of M Stadium). Relax on your private patio. Laundry facilities in the basement. It's all here!
