About this property

KT2 Downtown Ann Arbor/Kerrytown Love Nest

Ann Arbor Guest House is located in the heart of Ann Arbor's Historic Kerrytown District. This exclusive and private residence is on the second floor of a approximately 170 year old home surrounded by antique perennials. We are across from Kerrytown Shops and Market and the famed Kerrytown Farmer's Market (open Wednesdays & Saturdays in season). The area is vibrant with life and activity. With the Kerrytown Concert House next door, classical and jazz music often escapes their confines and fills the Guest House! We renovated this Guesthouse in February 2018 after being open since 2003. At that time we upgraded new paint, new carpet, new bed, new draperies and window coverings, new kitchen appliances and more! The charm of this house keeps regulars, such as parents of kids at U of M or those coming for football weekends coming back. It becomes their home away from home. We have housed many professors for short and extended stays or couples come to escape their work-a-day world in search of a little peace and quiet from the kids and a night on the town. We lovingly call this our "Love Nest"!

About the host

Hosted by Nina Howard

Host profile image
I call North Carolina mountains my home, where my art studio (and garden) is located, but travel back and forth to Ann Arbor, enjoying my time in one of my Ann Arbor Guest Houses. I enjoy the diversity of my life from city to country and mountains. I love my life!

Why they chose this property

I rented this property in 1995 on the first floor and began working out of my home offering massage and facelift massage. I also painted abstract art in the front room of the first floor. As time went on, this building turned into a Spa and I took over the second floor. Now, three decades later, this building has re-invented itself and houses an apartment upstairs as well as a 2 bedroom unit downstairs called, "The Tranquil Farmhouse". This property has been a gift to me and allowed me to re-invent my businesses over and over again!

What makes this property unique

Unique benefits in Kerrytown - the list is long:
Kerrytown Concert House next door (I've listened to Wynton Marsalis LIVE while lounging in bed sipping champagne); The Farmer's Market across the street; Kerrytown Shops and great food, shopping and cappucinos; Zingerman's a block away.
