About this property

The Whistle Stop Tiny House- Close to Downtown, light rail, Sloans Lake

This tiny house is ideally located just a block from the light rail, playground, a the bike path that runs into downtown (just 15 min if pedaling fast) and Sloans Lake a very popular location to relax with a super cool market area just north of it.
This mini-tudor home is only 450 sq feet but has a living/dining area, full bath, bedroom with queen, closets and a front porch. It is well equipped with most everything you need to cook and serve food on. Please note that the fridge and stove are also tiny, as one might expect.
The Whistle Stop is decorated in train décor, in keeping with the history of the area. The trains used to stop on Tennyson St, just one block away, let the cattle out and they were then herded up to Colfax. The convenient BBQ joints were nearby and at least those are still standing.
This is a month+ rental. Great for travelling nurses, remote workers, University guests etc.
The items provided such as coffee, TP etc are your starter pack and you will refill these as you see fit. The price is lower to reflect this and as a bonus for your longer stay.
We love this little home and can't wait to share it with you.

Amazing little house for our stay

We were in Denver for 2 months and loved our stay at the Whistle Stop! The decor of the house is cute and everything has been very well planned. Although it is a "tiny-home", it never felt too small we had ample room for storage, to cook, to eat, work and relax. We also took advantage of the quick walk to the light-rail, to the Ice Cream store and to the Alamo Draft House!
