Country Cottage Apartment - Entire 2nd Floor (UPS District - N Tacoma)

This completely renovated home is located in a quiet tree-lined Jo neighborhood just two blocks from the beautiful University of Puget Sound campus. Guests share the entrance with hosts who live on the first floor. Up one flight of stairs and through a doorway to the second floor, guests have exclusive use of the second floor in this spotless home. This entire floor was added 10 years ago and features two large bedrooms (air conditioning), bathroom with shower, sitting room, and fully equipped kitchen. There is a door at the top of the stairs into the sitting room, which closes off from the downstairs, allowing total privacy.
There is a laundry room located on the first floor, which guests are welcome to share with the hosts.

No minimum night stay requirement. Ample free parking.
No pets or smoking please.
Easy access to local amenities, waterfront restaurants and downtown Tacoma.

This home has undergone a very long and extensive, COMPLETE remodel. All work has been done by us. "This Old House" enthusiasts would be proud. We have striven for an English country cottage look - down to the numerous gardens and hand-planed white picket fence.

To reiterate above information: Guests will have use of the entire second floor where two bedrooms, full bathroom, kitchenette , and sitting room are located.
Hosts live downstairs and share the front door/entrance with guests.
The sitting room has an HD TV and small dining area. There is a fully equipped kitchenette; and a huge master bedroom (queen bed) with HD TV, sitting and desk areas; a bathroom with shower and small tub, fully furnished kitchenette and a second bedroom (queen bed). Guests have full use of the front porch with old fashioned porch swing and wicker furniture - reminiscent of days gone by. There is also a private brick patio with gardens, a water feature, firepit and patio string lights. You have complete access and use of these areas. Enjoy your morning cup of coffee or afternoon cocktails overlooking our lovely gardens either on the front porch or patio.

Parents visiting their student(s) at UPS are always welcome. We are literally two blocks from the main entrance of the Administration Building from our property.
We designed our renovations with the intention of offering UPS parents a welcoming place to stay when visiting their children at the University.

Our downstairs dining room (seats 8) (and full kitchen) can be available upon request for a special meal/occasion. (Parents of UPS students can prepare their favorite meal and/or have them bring a few friends over for dinner). With notice, hosts will make themselves scarce for the evening.

Location: Two blocks from the beautiful University of Puget Sound campus; within one half mile of the waterfront; within walking distance to the charming Proctor District (and STARBUCKS); one mile to Old Town; two miles to the waterfront restaurants and walking trails; and, three miles to downtown Tacoma; 30 miles south of Seattle.

Logistics:
* 45 minute straight shot on I-5 South from SeaTac Airport

We look forward to sharing our home with you.

The owners were so kind and accommodating. They went above and beyond with providing basic breakfast foods for our first morning in, and even offering a ride to the concert venue. The property was beautiful and neighborhood was quiet. The place was super cute and quiet, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again!

Wonderful stay!
Kathleen and David were the perfect hosts - friendly and helpful. The apartment, and the bed, were extremely comfortable, and the neighborhood was charming and walkable. A lovely coffee shop was a 10-minute walk, and we enjoyed Peaks and Pints - a 5-minute drive. We were visiting family and hope to stay here again!

OBSESSED!
I 10/10 recommend this stay. The hosts are kind and communicative. They have very clear instructions on how everything works. The apartment is sooo cute, I’m obsessed with it. They had snacks and some breakfast stuff in the fridge for our first morning there. If you’re looking for a place to stay, this is it.

Charming well appointed upstairs apartment with plenty of space. Close to campus and places of interest. The owners are friendly and welcoming without being intrusive. The front porch is a beautiful place to sit and read or chat about your day. I had a very pleasant and relaxed stay while visiting with my daughter.

Great location, wonderful stay
This is a great property with wonderful owners. Charming cottage with beautiful gardens and lovely porch to sit out on in nice weather. Very convenient ( only two blocks) to University of Puget Sound. While we were only there for 24 hours the lit hen was well equipped with everything someone would need for a longer stay.
