About this property

Best of Downtown and Belmont in cozy unique 2BD! Walk everywhere!

Best of both worlds! Minutes walk from both the lively Downtown Mall and foodie-heaven Belmont neighborhood. Cozy 2 bdrm, 1 bth suite in historic home with private entrance & porch, plus contactless checkin. Perfectly situated for wine/brewery tours, concerts at the Pavilion (you can literally see it from your living room), exploring the Downtown Mall, or visiting Monticello & Carter's Mountain. Dozens of restaurants within walking distance. Perfect for a couple or small family!

Home includes private parking off street, plus private entry and porch. The interior has 2 bedrooms and a combined kitchenette-living space. Sofa in living room can be converted to bed for extra sleeping space. Bar top table in living room doubles as work space with extra USBs and outlets. Smart TV includes access to all your favorite apps. You won't want to cook with so many restaurants within walking distance! But the kitchenette is stocked with everything you need - full fridge; Keurig with coffee pods, sugar, and cream; toaster; glasses, mugs, silverware, dinnerware.

What makes this place so great is the location! You've got the best of both worlds - Belmont and Downtown Charlottesville - and you're perfectly situated between the two neighborhoods.

The lively Downtown Mall is lined with local shops, restaurants, and businesses. The Pavilion, a popular concert and event venue, sits on one end of the Mall and is within view from your living room.

The historic Belmont neighborhood, one of the oldest in the city, is home to our favorite restaurants. Perfect for strolling and looking at the historic homes. Most restaurants in Belmont are only open for dinner, and reservations are highly recommended.

Open Table and Resy are popular apps for getting reservations locally.

Our area is super walkable! It's one of the things we love most. But, everything in Charlottesville is fairly close (no more than a 15-20 minute drive). You can be on the Route 29 corridor in ten minutes drive. Headed to UVA campus? You're just minutes walk to a free trolley station, or the drive is about 12 minutes. Biking is also very popular in Charlottesville and we're right beside a cute community bike shop.

Overnight getaway

Stayed here with another couple just for an overnight. Tiny and adorable place. Perfect for our needs as we didn’t do any meals and walked to the mall area full of shops and restaurants for both dinner and breakfast next morning. Beds very comfortable! Super easy checkin and out.

The unit was small but it was just perfect for my friend and I. The beds slept well and we enjoyed relaxing in the deck chairs. The location was close to everything we had planned to do and see. The host was very responsive to my questions.

Great stay!

This place is just as pictured and described with comfy beds and linens! Perfect for a weekend stay with our granddaughter and a Monticello visit! It was extremely hot in Charlottesville, but the air worked well, and they even had extra fans if needed. Good communication from the host.

Although the unit is small, it has all you could ask for. Check-in was seamless, place was clean, and Jason was incredibly responsive. It’s a short walk (done w/2 yr old) to heart of downtown Charlottesville.

Work trip

Super cute stay. They did offer private parking but I drive a big truck and wasn’t able to use it. Super hospitable. Had a cute welcome sign with my name on it. The internet went and they communicated asap and tried to assist with anything needed. Super nice and close to a lot of things to do.

Great Quick getaway

The location is great. The place is super clean and an awesome use of a small space. It’s well decorated and taken care of. Beds were not as comfortable as some people had said and you def hear traffic going by at all times. It is not peaceful BUT it’s perfect if you want to be close to great places to eat and drink. Would def stay again for a quick getaway.

Very sweet little apartment on the back of the house. Nicely decorated with special extra touches (a clothes steamer, for example). Care has obviously been taken to make the space as comfortable as possible.I had to reach out a couple of hours ahead of time to get the door code, but my message was answered immediately. I asked when booking for advice about restaurants within walking distance, since that was one of the benefits in the listing. I was told more info would be sent right before check-in day, but it wasn’t. Be sure to note before booking that the unit’s HVAC is controlled in the main house only; you will not have access to your own thermostat. The owners keep the temp at 70, and there are fans for hotter months and a space heater for cooler months. If that’s your preferred indoor temp, then you’ll be very happy here.Also be aware that the provided parking is a small space off a very narrow alley. If you have a compact car or sedan you should be fine. We have a Subaru Ascent, and we couldn’t navigate into the spot without scratching our car on adjacent fences. A larger SUV (e.g. Tahoe, Escalade, Suburban) would definitely not be able to fit. Parking is available on the street in front of the house, although you are limited to two hours between 8-6.

My family (4 adults) had a great time in Belmont. The location was perfect for a walk to "The Mall" and a short drive to campus for a game. The hosts were quick to respond and flexible with checking in. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect little spot for us

We were in town for my grandmother’s funeral and wanted to spend a little time exploring CVille and Monticello while we were here. It was clean, comfortable, safe, and cozy. It was perfect walking distance to restaurants and the mall. We were a quick drive to Monticello and hikes. Beds were comfy. My boys loved the sonic the hedgehog video game on the TV when we were packing up and during a storm that came through. We couldn’t have picked a better spot for our family.

A cute cozy 2-bedroom just off the downtown mall. It was quiet for us and great with 2 kids. A very quick walk to the downtown mall; we barely used the car all weekend!

Family Getaway in Charlottesville

Perfect location and had everything we needed for a long weekend getaway. It was so close to downtown, great shops, restaurants and not to far for skiing at Wintergreen. The two bedrooms were so comfortable, charming, with great design, and the fold out couch was an added bonus! It was clean, bright and cozy. You all thought of everything. I appreciated your flexibility and help with check in and how you made yourselves available should we need anything! Hope to return!!! Thank you!

Small but lovely

My sister and I stayed for two nights and found the double rooms allowed for privacy and comfort. Beds are not queen but double bed size and mine was fairly swaybacked from use but if I slept on the far side against the window it was more firm I assume due to few people using that side. Kitchen is adequate since we only used it for AM coffee. Many restaurants nearby in Belmont area. Note: Monday is when most restaurants are closed so just FYI. Parking is tight but with a few back and forth accessible. Road noise
