Charming 1901 Victorian Gem - 2BR Urban Escape AC Apartment in Downtown Tacoma
Step into a piece of Tacoma history with this beautifully remodeled 1901 Victorian home, offering a warm and inviting two-bedroom apartment in the heart of downtown. Thoughtfully updated while preserving its classic charm, this unit is perfect for travelers seeking comfort, character, and convenience. Inside, you’ll find a spacious layout featuring one king bed and one queen bed, both adorned with soft linens and cozy pillows to ensure restful nights. The living space is designed for both relaxation and productivity, with two smart TVs for streaming your favorite shows, a small desk for remote work or planning your itinerary, and free high-speed Wi-Fi to keep you connected throughout your stay.
The fully equipped kitchen includes a full-size gas stove and oven, a large refrigerator, and all the essentials you need to cook meals at home. A vintage German wood stove adds a unique touch of antique charm to the space, while modern touches like a washer and dryer ensure all the comforts of home are at your fingertips. The antique clawfoot bathtub in the bathroom invites you to soak and unwind after a long day of exploring the city.
Outdoors, you’ll find even more to enjoy. Sip your morning coffee on the private balcony with an outdoor heater, or gather in the backyard around the Solo Stove fire pit for cozy evenings under the stars.

The home is also decorated with Tacoma-themed memorabilia, adding local flavor and a sense of place.

Meet Your Hosts – Matthew & Desyrai
Matthew and Desyrai are both proud Army veterans who recently returned to their roots in Washington State. During their move, they stumbled upon this charming historic home in the heart of downtown Tacoma—a hidden gem that had clearly seen better days, but still radiated character and potential.
Originally converted into seven apartments during the Great Depression, the home felt like the perfect place to breathe new life into while also opening its doors to guests from near and far. They saw not just a house, but a story worth preserving—and sharing.
Though still a work in progress, Matthew and Desyrai are lovingly restoring the property, blending thoughtful renovations with its original 1901 beauty. Their goal? To create a space that feels like home, filled with warmth, history, and the kind of welcoming spirit only a labor of love can offer.
