About this property

Our historic 140 year old home is a minutes walk to Downtown Flushing

.Very nice and comfortable house, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, fully equipped kitchen and a comfortable living room. Our house has a 140-years history, so we tried to decorate it in the old style so that you can feel a bit of history, but with all modern amenities. We travel a lot, so we value comfort and style. On the walls of the house you can see photos from Iceland, which is our last fascination.
We invite you to three comfortably furnished bedrooms with king, queen and full size beds. Each is in a different style, each with a wardrobe, table and chairs or comfortable armchairs. In the main bedroom you can watch TV lying in bed, or sit comfortably in an armchair.

You have two bathrooms - on the ground floor and on the first floor.

In the kitchen you will find all the equipment, dishes and appliances to cook, bake or simply make a delicious meal or make coffee. A large fridge will hold all your supplies.
You can eat a meal in the kitchen - at the small, fold-out table or in the dining room - where there is a comfortable place for 6 or 8 people. If you don't like cooking - the nearest restaurant is only 3 minutes' walk - Jacks Place Bowling. Next 5-minute walk to Kathy's Restaurant, Little Caesar's, or a little further is the Flushing 'A' close to Riverview Park (formerly A & W), Skips, and finally the Pour House all within walking distance no more than 10 minutes.

You have a living room with two comfortable sofas, an armchair, and a 50" TV.

On the ground floor there are also laundries - two washing machines and two dryers are enough to quickly wash things after outdoor activities.
If it's cold - you can turn on the heating or fireplace, in summer we have added a new air-conditioning that will help you keep cool.

On the yard - new barbecue grill, patio table with chairs, and deckchairs.

Great location! Easy walking distance to the downtown Flushing area for the Candlewalk. The house was clean and looked just like the pictures. The kitchen was well-stocked with coffee and tea. Could drive to Frankenmuth for the waterpark and had a nice dinner at Johnny's Pour House.

We loved the quaint holiday decorations. The size of the house was perfect for our needs. We wished the snow would have been shoveled in the driveway and sidewalks. We really didn't know where the driveway edges were.

Beautiful home. We all enjoyed our stay. We were there from Florida for my brother’s memorial service and we were able to relax and enjoy family living in the area. I would highly recommend this home for your next stay. Everything was clean and ready when we arrived. Thank you for making this difficult time a home away from home experience.

About the host

Hosted by Jeffery and Sylwia Lennerth

Host profile image
Sylwia and I met in Oslo Norway in the Winter of 2014 and date for three years before marrying in March of 2017. I grew up just around the corner at 122 N. McKinley street and know the neighborhood very well. Graduating high school from Flushing and eventually moving away to San Antonio, Texas where we make our home.

Sylwia grew up in Wolsztyn, Poland and moved to Wroclaw, Poland for 30 years going to College, raising a family before becoming adventurous moving to Norway were we met.

Why they chose this property


Since moving away from Flushing coming back for family events and reunions if we didn't stay at my Mothers new home in Flint we had to stay at hotels in Flint away from Flushing making it difficult to spend time with friends. Originally I had the idea of purchasing a Condo to rent to friends and classmates that may want to stay in Flushing too. A few years ago a very good friend purchased the home down the street at 129 N. McKinley for him and his family with the same idea as I (I actually found the house and provided the information to my friend!).

First looking at Condominiums from my original idea it became apparent the association agreement were not friendly to setting up a VRBO so then search for a property within walking distance to downtown.

Growing up in this neighborhood in home located around the corner at 122 N. McKinley street from 1960 I really wanted to purchase that home if possible but the owner was reluctant to sell. After finding a property close to St. Roberts that we really wanted fell through, unbelievably this property became available and made the purchase!

It is just so nice to have this property so close to the home I grew up in and still be in the neighborhood where myself and friends knew where every fruit tree and raspberry patch were located! Such beautiful memories and so close to my childhood friends VRBO two houses down the street.

We now have home to come to for family and friends gatherings for a couple of weeks a year and be able to share with my friends or people from across the world that would like to enjoy Flushing too!

Hope you enjoy our home, family photos and our pictures from Iceland through the house!

What makes this property unique
