I was fortunate enough to have a split stay at this wonderful, stylish home and my second week was just as amazing as the first. JP & Heather are outstanding hosts. Their farmhouse is spacious with a mix of traditional, modern, chic styles...eclecticism at its best! The garden is an amazing bonus and they are generous to share this incredible space...a perfect way to wind down after a hectic day or get some work done enjoying the outdoors. Likewise, the trees surround the windows of your second floor home away from home...it was often hard to believe I was still in the city! Do heed the notice--the steep stairs with narrow tread & step up in to the claw foot tub--could be tricky if you have any physical limitations; however most will be just fine. Their home couldn't be more perfectly placed--quick and easy route to the downtown sights, close to the hip neighborhoods, and access to all public transportation. If you want to live more like a local and still have a boutique hotel feel...this is the place! Thankfully I was able to get booked for another week when I have to return to Chicago...but I do think the secret is out!
