About this property

Spectacular home in prime location close to venues, hospitals, and universities.

We took our time renovating this bright and welcoming 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath apartment so you can truly enjoy the best of comfortable, easy living. The open layout, thoughtful updates, and great amenities make it a place you’ll love coming home to. Both bedrooms feature queen-sized beds, plush carpeting, and generous closet space—perfect for unwinding after a full day.

There’s plenty of room to spread out, whether you’re settling in for a movie night, hosting friends for dinner, or enjoying a cozy wine-and-cheese evening for two.

Located on the second floor and ideally situated near Rochester’s arts and entertainment districts, top restaurants, universities, and hospitals, this apartment makes getting around a breeze. Highland Hospital and Strong are just a quick side-street commute away, with the Eastman Theatre and Auditorium Theatre close by as well. Ideal for a short visit or an extended stay if you’re in Rochester for a few weeks.

Lovely, spacious, and meticulously maintained—this is sure to become your favorite home away from home.

Home was clean with a friendly atmosphere, made us feel right at home. Located on a quiet Street, yet close to the Planetarium and Highland Park (where we visited). Home was so quiet like no one else was in the building. Beds were very comfy and we enjoyed having the 1.5 bathrooms in a smaller rental, perfect for my daughter and I! The Owner was great with communication. 5 Star in every way. Thank you!!

Wonderful stay. Very quiet, safe neighborhood within easy distance to several Rochester venues. Apartment is immaculately clean, check-in a breeze and host is a great communicator. 5 minutes to Strong Museum and great restaurants in the Park Place / Berkeley St area. Off street parking and plenty of on-street parking if you prefer. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Great Place! We were in Rochester visiting our son for parents weekend at RIT. Apartment was clean, comfortable and exactly what was advertised. Great location…about 10-15 minute drive to the campus and pretty much anywhere you wanted to go in the Rochester area. Highly recommended and will definitely stay again. Thanks Melanie!

This is a lovely spot in a very convenient neighborhood in Rochester. The space is perfect and nicely renovated. If a 2BR apartment works for your group, you really can't go with with this place!
