About this property

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.

Diamond in the Rough

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!

About the host

Your host

I've owned the classic 1880s home in the Dayton St. Historical District for 3 years, and love it here. Great neighbors who work and play together to promote the neighborhood. Explodes with positive energy. We are so near to the heartbeat of Cincinnati.

Why they chose this property

I've spent 3-years developing the very private and tranquil carriage house, with special care focused on the beautiful garden that comes to life in the spring. It's been a labor of love, and I hope you fully enjoy this restful home-away-from-home.

What makes this property unique

There is no other property like this in Cincinnati: an inner-city garden oasis. The carriage house has a new kitchen and spa bathroom and is uber clean and quaint with high ceilings. Privacy, peace and quiet are our calling cards! Plus it's within 5 minutes of the heart beat of the city.
