John and Mel have created a cozy space to relax and recharge! Bristol was beautiful and we were able to get in a 20 mile bike ride on the Creeper Trail which was so beautiful!

About the host
Hosted by John Wright
I’m a Bristol local, born in the 70s, and after a 30-year career in corporate America, I transitioned into my true passion: Real Estate. Today, I focus on growing our local business and mentoring others in the industry to help them build their own brands. My life is rooted in family—I share my home with my wife and our two dogs, Alcey and Atticus. When we aren't working or enjoying the outdoors, we are soaking up every minute with our grown children and grandchildren.
As a host, I combine my corporate background with a personal touch to provide a seamless, professional experience. I love sharing the hidden gems of the Twin Cities with visitors. To make sure your trip starts on a high note, I always leave a small local gift so you can take a piece of Bristol home with you.
Why they chose this property
I love this neighborhood because it’s the 'quiet corner' of downtown. While you’re close enough to hear the faint music from the Rhythm & Roots festival in the distance, the Studio is tucked away in a private courtyard that feels incredibly secluded. It’s the perfect location for someone who wants to experience the best of Bristol’s breweries and museums by day but needs a peaceful, secure 'home base' to retreat to at night.
What makes this property unique
This Studio is actually the estate's original historic kitchen, completely reimagined into a modern, industrial-chic loft. It is the ultimate 'flex space.' What makes it stand out is the total privacy; it has its own entrance and doesn't share any walls with the main house. It’s uniquely suited for the modern traveler: I’ve outfitted it with a dedicated workspace for digital nomads and high-end coffee amenities for those slow Bristol mornings. It’s compact, stylish, and carries a 'hidden gem' energy that makes it feel like your own private secret in the heart of the city.
