About the host
Hosted by Brendan O'Shaughnessy
Brendan and Laurel O’Shaughnessy graduated from Notre Dame and St. Mary’s College in 1993. A former teacher and journalist, Brendan works at Notre Dame as a writer in the Communications department. Laurel works as a special education teacher at St. Joseph High School. We have three children (Maeve, 14; John, 13; and Kate, 10) whose pictures are all over the house – at least it has more character than an impersonal hotel!
Why they chose this property
We bought this house, built in 1927, from the original owner’s son in the summer of 2010. We did a lot of renovation work to make it more up to date, including new windows, counters, bathrooms and paint, as well as refinishing floors, finishing part of the basement and changing the layout. We like to think the result is an older home with both character and modern conveniences; it has the original colonial door hardware, but also WiFi, flat-screen TV's, and new appliances.
What makes this property unique
Located about a mile from the Notre Dame campus and a half mile from Downtown, our house is in one of South Bend’s best neighborhoods, near some of the original Studebaker residences. The back yard is spacious and has a patio, grill, fire pit, basketball court and zip line. Parking is available in the 2-car garage and the extra-long driveway.
