We had a great weekend stay at Joe's place. Check in was easy. Joe provides all the codes and information in a timely fashion. The kitchen was very well set up and stocked with condiments and everything you need for good coffee, including a french press. We loved the location and the off street parking. The apartment was very comfortable to hang out and the bed and futon were both very comfortable. I would definitely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by joseph

Host profile image
HI, I'm a professor at one of the local colleges. I just spent the past 2 years renovating this space which is attached to my house. I've lived in Burlington since 99 so I know the town pretty well. Come visit, the space is really fun and so is Burlington.

Why they chose this property

Great downtown location. 7 minute walk to Church St. Close to Champlain College and UVM. 15 minute walk to the lake. Historic 1845 house sits on large fenced in yard with great people watching porch.

What makes this property unique

The apartment is located on the second floor of an 1845 Federal style brick house. You enter through a common mudroom into a dining room. Off of the dining room, there are private stairs that lead up into the apartment. You also have access to your own private porch, off of the mudroom, as well as a fenced in yard with comfy patio furniture.

The space is such a great mix of new and old. It's completely renovated but carefully nestles in a historic 1845 Federal style brick building. Exposed bricks and beams, brand new hardwood floors, new appliances, quartz counters, a really comfortable bathroom with open stand-up shower next to a claw foot tub. The apartment is decorated with lots of local Vermont art and history.
