Historic Beauty in ❤️ of Downtown. Fam & Pet Friendly. 5 miles to Liberty.

New to VRBO! Historic charm meets modern luxury at "Harrison House." This 1905 beauty features 4 bedrooms, highlighted by a stunning master suite w/ a 25 foot cathedral ceiling. Airy 10 ft ceilings complement an open floor plan w/ updated kitchen & two downstairs living areas. Relax on the front porch, grill on the deck, enjoy the 65 inch tv, or stroll the historic streets & enjoy all that downtown Lynchburg offers! All area campuses are w/in a short drive. I'd love to host you & yours @ Harrison House!

This spacious, stylish, modernized piece of history is perfect for whatever brings you to Lynchburg! Our pet-friendly home is a great fit for families, larger groups, and any visitor to the “city of Seven Hills.” You’ll have plenty of space in our home to entertain and relax. And, you’ll have wonderful proximity to all that Central Virginia has to offer. Harrison House is minutes (just a short hilly stroll) from Lynchburg’s bourgeoning downtown with wonderful shopping and restaurants, a few miles from local college campuses, and in the heart of the Virginia Blue Ridge with an abundance of outdoor and indoor entertainment options.

Our family (including two small children) loved living here as our primary residence for 2+ years. We experienced the neighborhood to be safe and serene, but we recommend you engage in safe practices such as locking your car doors and being mindful if you’re walking in the surrounding areas past ~10-11pm or so.

Living room: This space is designed to entertain and relax. A luxurious vanilla leather sectional seats up to 6 along with modern seats and decorative pieces. The original pocket doors are restored and functional and open up to a spacious foyer.

Kitchen: Enjoy new, stainless steel appliances, open wood shelves, ample storage space, a gorgeous coffee bar in an original built-in, in the updated kitchen.

**All bedrooms have blackout curtains for your maximum rest and relaxation**

Den/Bedroom 4 (downstairs): This relaxing space includes a tasteful queen sized sleeper sofa and provides access to the back deck that boasts great views of downtown Lynchburg.

Downstairs bathroom: the full downstairs bathroom with original clawfoot tub and laundry services the needs of any and all guests downstairs and especially the overnight needs of the guests sleeping in bedroom # 4.

Bedroom # 1 (master suite): The master suite -- with vaulted ceiling -- is stunning. You will love the king-size bed, spacious private bathroom, adorable double vanity, his/hers closets, and charming desk/workspace!

Bedroom # 2: This bedroom features a queen bed, side tables that capture the home's historic time period and offer convenient storage, large windows, and wonderful natural light.

Bedroom # 3: Our third bedroom can comfortably sleep up to 4 with a queen bed and two twin bunk beds. An original closet and newly designed closet provide ample storage space.

Lovely, comfortable, and roomy
My youngest son got married near Lynchburg, so I needed a place for 9 people--my other 4 sons and their families/girlfriend, my husband and myself. The photos of the Harrison House displayed a spacious old house that had been renovated and decorated beautifully. It had the charm of an old house with high ceilings and wood floors and the beauty and comfort of a modern house. I would recommend bringing your own towels as there was not enough for the 9 people in our party. Everyone of our guests were pleased with the house, commenting on how pretty and comfortable it was. The house is located in a neighborhood that seemed a little sketchy to me, but we didn't encounter any problems that you might imagine. It was a perfect place for us to stay as we celebrated our son's wedding.

Great, with a few issues.
Very clean and accommodating. Inside is beautiful and comfortable. We enjoyed the older charm of the house. The door lock is complicated. I never did fully figure it out and had difficulty every time. Hurt my manliness, lol. The sofa bed sheet did not fit and had to make due until the next day when sheets that fit were provided. We indicated in the reservation that we had 9 guests. But there were towels for 6. We had to make due until more towels were provided the next day. None of these things would prevent me from renting again. I would just check right away if everything is in order before night time falls.

Fantastic Home
We rented this home for a couple of weeks and it was perfect for our needs. Home was clean when we arrived. Bedrooms were large and comfortable. Lots of time went into updating it while keeping the feel of an early 1900’s home. Host were great to communicate with and made sure we had everything we needed. We could not have been happier.

Quick family get away before the Spring semester at LU
We loved our stay at your home. We love history and to be in the midst of the homes of Federal Hill was an unexpected pleasure! We loved walking our dog through the streets, admiring the homes, imagining what they were like in their heyday, and letting our imagination run wild on what it would be like to buy up all the neglected homes and restore them to their full glory. While out walking, a gentleman was gracious enough to stop and chat with us and share so much history that it enhanced our walks. The home was cozy and well-appointed. We loved that the tree was still up and we were able to enjoy the ambience of it. Thank you for a lovely get-away, The Fillman family

Wonderful stay
Our stay was great! The touches inside the house were amazing. The neighborhood was a little scary at night while walking the dogs. We ended up staying real close to the house, where it was well lit. Otherwise, amazing and would recommend!! Big and spacious for all we needed.
