About the host
Hosted by Tara Jenkins
I have a deep connection to this home—I actually grew up here! My family has cherished and enjoyed this house for over 40 years, creating a lifetime of memories. Today, my brother Tim lives on-site, and I serve as the co-host to ensure our guests have a wonderful stay. We love sharing this special piece of our family history with travelers who appreciate a home with character and heart
Why they chose this property
North Center and the St. Ben’s enclave have been 'home' to us for decades. We chose to stay here because it offers the perfect Chicago balance: it’s a quiet, safe, and tree-lined residential pocket, yet you’re just a short stroll from the vibrant energy of Lincoln Square and the easy transit of the Brown Line. It’s the kind of neighborhood where neighbors know each other, and everything you need is within walking distance.
What makes this property unique
What sets this home apart is its intentional blend of vintage Chicago charm and modern accessibility. Having been in our family for 40+ years, the home has been thoughtfully updated—including a rare single-level layout, a mobility-friendly walk-in shower, and ultra-fast 1Gbps Wi-Fi. It’s a spacious 'Seeley Dollhouse' that offers the comfort of a real family home with the premium amenities of a luxury rental.
