About this property
4BR UNL East Campus Historic Home | Sleeps 8 | 3–4 Parking | Pergola + Porch
4BR historic home on UNL East Campus (“Professor’s Row”).
Perfect for UNL visits, graduation weekends, and family weekends; with space to spread out.
Walk to Cultiva, the Arboretum, the Dairy Store, and nearby trails (Trolley Trail + MoPac).
Sleeps 8 with 2 full baths, a dedicated workspace, fast Wi-Fi, and easy parking (driveway 3–4 cars plus free street parking, except 8am–10am weekdays).
Enjoy a covered front porch swing and a shaded backyard pergola—beautiful landscaping with 1,000 tulips in the spring and several master-gardener neighbors.
SPACE & LAYOUT
You have private access to the entire 1st and 2nd floors. Basement and detached garage are owner storage and remain locked.
Coffee + kitchen:
Keurig single-serve with a starter supply of pods. Coffee pot, french press and water heater also available if you bring supplies.
The kitchen is well-equipped for cooking with pots/pans, baking basics, measuring cups, and common starter items like salt/pepper, spices, oil, and condiments—just bring your main groceries.
• 2nd Floor: Three bedrooms + a full bathroom/shower (original wood floors, ceiling fans, ample closet space).
• Main Floor: Study can serve as a 4th bedroom with a futon, desk, owner-built credenza, and ceiling fan. Adjoining full bathroom has a step-free shower plus washer/dryer, ironing board, and a portable shower seat if needed.
• Living Room: Cozy with original hardwoods, fireplace, smart TV, and historic pocket doors to close off the stairwell/upper level.
• Dining: Hand-built farmhouse table seats 8 comfortably (benches + extensions in the coat closet can seat up to 12).
HISTORIC CHARM + MODERN ESSENTIALS
Original hardwoods and pocket doors with updated essentials: smartlock/self check-in, modern showers, and strong Wi-Fi (1 gig).
GUEST ACCESS & PARKING
Driveway holds 3–4 cars. Please drive slowly if using the carport. It’s original to the home and was built when cars were smaller. Free street parking is also available (except 8am–10am weekdays).
LOCAL TIPS
• Game days: Memorial Stadium is ~25 blocks (a bit far to walk comfortably). Uber there; after the game, walk east to 14th & Vine for an easier pickup.
• Walkable favorites: Cultiva Coffee + Valentino’s Pizza (1 block west), the Dairy Store (across the street), and the Arboretum close by.
• Trails: Trolley Trail and MoPac Trail are 1–2 blocks south.
• Food: Try HR Crave for burgers sourced from a local farm family.
HOUSE RULES (SUMMARY)
Quiet hours: 11pm–7am (please be respectful outdoors as sound carries).
No parties. Small daytime family gatherings (e.g., a parent luncheon) may be allowed with prior approval.
Registered guests only for overnight stays. Daytime visitors must be pre-approved and are limited to 12 people total on property. No DJ/speakers, no amplified music, and no large “open invite” events.
Work crew bookings: the names of all overnight occupants must match the reservation. Crew swaps (different people staying overnight) require prior approval.
Pets: Up to 2 dogs allowed. Pet fee applies and must be included in the reservation. Please keep pets off beds/furniture and crated if left alone.
SECURITY & PRIVACY
Exterior security cameras (no audio): doorbell camera at the front entry, back-porch camera facing the backyard (captures only a small portion of the patio), and a garage camera facing the driveway.
No cameras inside. Cameras are not aimed into windows and do not record audio. You have the entire home privately; I never enter during your stay. All communication stays in the app.

About the host
Hosted by Brian
I grew up in Papillion, just south of Omaha and fell in love with Lincoln when I attended the University of Nebraska in 1995. We enjoy gardening, landscaping and fixing up this beautiful old property. Much of the furniture was hand made in my shop including the farmhouse dining room table, front porch chairs and the credenza in the study.
Why they chose this property
This part of Lincoln’s historic East Campus district is special—tree-lined streets, front porches, and the kind of neighborhood where people still wave and chat on summer evenings. Many neighbors are master gardeners who take real pride in the area, and it’s an easy walk to coffee, trails, campus, and great local spots.
What makes this property unique
Built in 1919, this home blends classic character with modern comfort—original hardwoods, pocket doors, archways, and crown molding, plus a spacious front porch with a swing. We’ve added modern essentials like strong Wi-Fi, smartlock self check-in, and updated showers, so it feels historic without feeling dated.
