About this place

Heart of Short North | 7 beds + 2 parking spots

✔️ Three bedrooms over three floors, sleeping up to 9 in 7 beds
✔️ A kids' lounge off the kitchen with a daybed, trundle, Roku TV, games and bean bags
✔️ Coffee station: Keurig K-Duo (pods or a full pot), burr grinder and French press, with coffee to start you off

Freshly furnished in 2026, this three-story rowhouse in Italian Village has room for the whole group: a king in the front bedroom, a queen in the middle bedroom, and a long third-floor bedroom that sleeps four with a second king plus a daybed and trundle.

First floor: The front door opens into the living room, with a decorative fireplace, a 43" Roku TV, a sofa and armchairs. The dining room seats 8, and the bookcase on the stair wall is stocked with board games. The kitchen has an island with the sink and dishwasher, everything you need to cook for a crowd, and a coffee station between the windows. Behind the kitchen, in what was once the breakfast nook, the kids' lounge has a daybed with a trundle (2 twins), a 55" Roku TV, bean bags and a basket of throws. The half bath is on this floor.

Second floor: The primary bedroom at the front has a king bed, a 43" Roku TV, a desk and a full-length mirror. Bedroom 2 has a queen bed and its own floor mirror. The full bathroom and the washer and dryer are on this floor.

Third floor: Bedroom 3 runs the length of the front of the house, with a king bed, a daybed with a trundle (2 twins), a privacy screen between them, a reading chair and a walk-in closet. There's a second full bathroom up here, and a desk in the hall with a wireless-charging lamp if you need to get some work done.

Every bedroom has bedside lamps with USB charging, a 3-in-1 phone charger and a white noise machine. Please note this home has stairs on every floor.

Guests will have private access to the entire home.

Most of your interaction will be with the property co-hosts, Kate and Nat. We live here in the neighborhood and we'll be available to help if you need anything, though we usually don't meet our guests in person.

About the area: Italian Village sits just east of High Street, so the Short North Arts District, home to some of the best restaurants, shopping, art galleries and nightlife in the city, is a short walk away. Park your car and walk everywhere!

Parking: Two off-street parking spaces, stacked end to end. Additional parking on the street requires a city permit, so we can only accommodate two vehicles.

Pets are welcome! We charge a fee per pet (up to 2 pets), and all pets must be included in your guest count when you book (on Vrbo, check "I am traveling with pets" under Travelers).

*The TVs do not have cable or access to any free live channels. They are Roku TVs only. You will need to log into your own streaming accounts to play content.

We expect our guests to move the trash and recycling bins to and from the curb for pickup days. We'll send a reminder message, and we're happy to help anyone with physical limitations.
