About this property
The Gustavus House – For 4!
Summary:
Tucked in the heart of Columbus, The Gustavus House places you right in the middle of the Old Towne East neighborhood—one of the city’s oldest and most architecturally rich communities. You’ll be minutes from downtown Columbus, the Columbus Museum of Art, Franklin Park Conservatory, and local boutiques and coffee shops lining Parsons Avenue. For a weekend escape or a longer stay, this location gives you easy access to city energy while keeping you rooted in a quiet, historic pocket of town.
The Space:
Step inside and get ready to unwind in the cozy living room, where a plush couch and comfy chair invite you to kick back in front of the smart TV above the decorative fireplace. The casual eat-in kitchen features glistening black countertops, a Keurig for your morning brew, and counter seating and a table for two—perfect for a casual breakfast or chatting over wine while dinner simmers. The charm continues outdoors with a classic front porch—ideal for sipping coffee and watching the neighborhood come to life—and a private patio made for quiet evenings under the stars. After a day of exploring the area, retreat to restful bedrooms outfitted with room-darkening shades that promise a peaceful, uninterrupted sleep.
With its welcoming interiors, stylish details, and unbeatable location, this Old Towne East retreat is your gateway to everything Columbus has to offer.
This home comfortably sleeps 4 guests between 2 private bedrooms.
Bedroom #1 includes a king size bed and a smart TV.
Bedroom #2 includes a queen size bed.
This home includes a half bathroom as well as a full bathroom with a single vanity and a walk-in shower.
