Perfect house for hosting, great location

We had a fun weekend at this unique property. Everything went smooth, the house was well-equipped, on a quiet street, close to stores. Has plenty of beds, a Foosball table, big windows, and lots of character. :) I would definitely rent this property again!

Big Old House

Amazing first impression as we walked through the front door. We came to Mnpls for a family wedding at the MIA so the house accommodated 5 adults easily + several family members who were also in town who stopped by to gather. The location was perfect for groceries/beverages/dining and about a 20-minute drive from the airport. The deck off the master was terrific for morning coffee and sunshine. The house is over 100 years old and beautiful, but with a few quirky elements. Our host Gregory was very responsive with detailed instructions which is always appreciated.

Absolute gem!

Beautiful ornate classic residence in a quiet neighborhood but close to everything. Chef’s kitchen with everything you need aside from ingredients. Gorgeous living room with piano, books, good light, and character. Comfortable beds! This cannot be overstated. I have stayed in enough places with a thin foam over plywood for the bed. This property has actual beds that practically demand oversleeping. Next time I find myself in Minneapolis, I’ll be back!

Excellent place to stay!

We enjoyed the mansion. It was conveniently located and easy to get on and off the freeway. Six of us helped cook the Thanksgiving meal in the spacious kitchen. It was a wonderful holiday. We loved taking walks in the neighborhood and found that it was close to grocery stores and restaurants.

Second time here and still as charming as ever

We rented this Vrbo to host a murder mystery dinner party. The home was beautiful and the kitchen was amazing to work in with the chef. Have visited this brownstone previously and so happy we decided to rent it again. Lovely owner who communicated proficiently. Can’t wait to book our next event.

Historic Home

We enjoyed our stay in this unique home. A large main room with a grand piano was lovely for visiting with friends. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was fully stocked and the dining room was perfect for a special dinner. The home appears to have some renovations underway, and the bathrooms could use more updating, but that did not detract from our stay. Overall, a nice stay in a quiet neighborhood.

Fantastic Christmas week!

This beautiful Victorian house is exactly as advertised and then some! It’s funky, quirky, fantastically built, luxurious, and such fun! The great room was such a special; place to gather and celebrate Christmas with our family!! We really enjoyed the fireplace. The kitchen is well equipped with pots and pans. The appliances are newer and work very well. There is quality dish and glassware for 12. The beds are comfy and the house is nice and warm…I was expecting cold and drafty. The game room and fuzzy-ball table was an added bonus. The host is very quick to respond to any questions which really helped us plan a great Christmas week. We loved our stay!

Beautiful house! Gregory was an amazing hostess. He was very responsive. The house is beautiful and architecturally stunning. It is an old house and parts of it are being renovated. Loved the woodwork all over. Only thing we feel is missing is access to either cable, roku or a streaming service. Thank you Gregory for a wonderful stay! Maria Carmichael

Gregory is one of the best hosts I have had on VRBO!

This was the perfect listing for our daughter's recent wedding at a nearby wedding venue. Gregory was a fantastic host and the accuracy of his listing was spot on. He met us at the property, told us a little history of the property and trusted us to take good care of his beautiful property. We rented this for our daughter;s wedding weekend and Gregory was kind enough to let us host our daughter's post wedding brunch the day after. How great was that? We cannot say enough about what a unique, beautiful home this is and it was perfect for all our needs. Thank you, Gregory!

Stately Home, Disappointing Features

This home is quite the showplace; the pictures show a beautiful, older and classic home, however, there are several issues that the owner needs to attend to. The house is in various stages of repair (unfinished/unpainted walls and ceilings, no access or egress to the side or back doors, only front door entry), the water pressure in the primary shower is almost non-existent, towels are marked and old/shabby, dust and dirt evident. Not worth the $3300+ that I spent for the week. The place looks in some parts to be virtually a construction site, particularly the front porch/entry. Not sure if this is a work in progress and we just happened to be guests who were helping to fund the normal upkeep, or if this is what the final state to be. It's a venerable older home in a beautiful neighborhood, true to the pictures. What's not clear in the pictures is that this older home needs a lot of work and the interior elements are in need of attention and care.

Unique, beautiful, quirky mansion

This house is, in many ways, gorgeous. It is huge and has old world, luxurious charm. The living room and kitchen are large and beautiful. It has several (not working) fireplaces in many rooms around the house. The decor is quirky, artsy, and odd. I really loved the place, because I enjoy quirky, artsy, odd decor. But some people may find it a bit strange. For instance, in the biggest, nicest bathroom, there is a very large mechanic's toolbox that serves as a cabinet. But it's a great place to gather a large number of people and the kitchen and living room are grand. Also worth noting, there are many various places where the house has a "still under construction" feel. Nothing major, but some people won't like this aspect.

About the host

Architect, father of twins, interested in history, art, music, travel, great food with family and friends.

Why they chose this property

Comfortable, convenient combination of classic and contemporary.

What makes this property unique

Close to everything but on a quiet 2 block long street. Its like living on an island, at the top of a ridge, yet only 10 blocks to the epicenter of Minneapolis. Can walk to most things in 15 minutes on city streets or take the scenic route through Loring Park.
