About this property
The Artist's Sweet Spot
This is the smallest of 4 apartments in a beautifully restored, turn of the century home that was turned into apartments in the 1920s. Three huge sycamore trees surround the house. The fully fenced back yard is a nature retreat complete with pond and sometimes frogs. Large decks surround the back of the house with each tenant having their own share of deck and a BBQ. Everything has been thought of to make your stay as easy as being home but also special and different. Owner :)nga 1 block away from the town natural food store.,7 blocks from the town square, a pleasant quiet neighborhood. Easy peasey.... Half way between the town square and the university. One block down a country lane feeling alley to the grocery store. Easiest location. Free bikes for getting around or enjoying the 17 mile bike loop around Fairfield.

About the host
Hosted by Inga Frick
This house with it's 4 beautiful apartments is my forever home. Though I'm not there now it's where I come home to. I love it and I hope you do too.
Why they chose this property
In the heart of a town with a lot of heart. What seems like a country lane leads to the grocery story 1/2 block away. It seems a bit rural but the town square is just 5 blocks away.
What makes this property unique
Classy old house with a surprisingly contemporary loft (the tree house), beautiful grounds, and warm hearted caretakers. In the middle of a kind and welcoming community.
