Beautiful house
We had a perfect, comfortable visit in Northampton. The house is lovely and the host has provided everything you will need. The location is fantastic—short walk to town and Smith College. We hope to book the house again one day.

Comfortable property with attentive but unobtrusive manager.
Comfortable and well equipped property. Nice touches on arrival with chocolates and flowers. Kitchen had all things needed and quite a few bits and bobs that otherwise you might find yourself having to buy during a stay. Quiet street, walkable to town centre shops and restaurants in Northampton. Northampton is an interesting if a little quirky mixture , it made for a good base to explore the area. I’d suggest the town needs to do something re it’s homeless / beggars -as it seems to be a bit of a magnet given its liberal image - but that’s no doubt just an unfortunate illustration of wider social problems.

About the host

Hosted by Christopher

Host profile image
I'm an enthusiastic restorer of beautiful old homes and fell in love with this charming turn of the century Dutch Colonial. After 6 years of restoration I find I'm away from the area more and more for extended business trips or visiting relatives. When I'm in the area I use the detached Carriage House apartment and park on the street.

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location. Situated 2 blocks from Smith College campus, this home offers the best of vibrant Northampton within walking distance in any direction, while being nestled into a mature quiet neighborhood with tree lined streets and sidewalks.

What makes this property unique

If outdoor living space is your thing, you'll love the covered front porch with rocking chairs and bistro set, as well as the furnished backyard garden and patio with 45' waterfall, gas BBQ, gas fire-pit.
