About this property

Burlington Walkabout Peaceful City Retreat-Walk to EVERYTHING downtown.

You will love this completely remodeled, late 1800's duplex. We have full time tenant/caretakers in the front apt, with the short term rental in the back of the house. It's a luxurious suite, with all the amenities for a relaxing, delightful stay in Burlington! Uniquely situated with a private covered deck and off street parking. This is a one bedroom, one bath efficiency apartment. The open living space has a full galley kitchen & stackable washer/dryer. A high efficiency cold climate heat pump heats and cools the unit. There is a natural gas firplace for ambiance and extreme cold weather provides heat back up to the heat pump system. A very high quality queen sofa sleeper ( Note: NO cross bar ) sleeps 2 for additional guests, maximum 4. The apt comfortably sleeps 4, but the space is small. NO MORE THAN 4 PEOPLE ALLOWED, STRICT FIRE CODE.
NO PARTIES ALLOWED, NO EXCEPTIONS. The 3 season covered porch adds more space to move about and relax, with a sofa, chairs and table. The very large porch windows give you a sense of being outside, with privacy shades-a great place to take an afternoon nap during warmer weather. There is a private, fenced in yard, shared with our on-site tenants/caretakers who live in the front apt. Please respect their space-there is a separate table and chairs near the porch for your use, the rest of the yard/furniture belongs to the full time tenants. PLEASE NOTE: Both apartments have separate, private entrances. You will enter your apt at the rear of the house, through the back yard gated entrance. The SIDE PORCH BELONGS TO THE FRONT APT NOT THE SHORT TERM RENTAL. We've included many nice touches like organic bed linens, marble kitchen countertops, subway tiled shower, heated bathroom and kitchen floors for cooler weather comfort. Included also is a high quality Nikken Air Wellness filtration system-making the "Burlington Walkabout" truly a health and wellness retreat. You have off street parking for max. 2 vehicles. Parking on the right side of the driveway on the cobblestone ( The left side of driveway is the caretakers parking )

Wonderful apt with great location
This apartment was so warm, cozy and decorated with taste. The location was so great and it was nice to not have to drive around everywhere we wanted to go. We love Burlington and will definitely stay here again when we come back! The owners were very responsive and checked in with me during our stay. Thank you!

Lovely alternative to a hotel
I have to admit I was a little skeptical when all the reviews were 10 out of 10. Happily, the apartment lives up to its reputation. It was extremely clean and comfortable, very well-equipped, check-in and check-out were simple, and the location is convenient. I will definitely be looking to see if this place is available the next time I visit my Champlain student.

Jus at listed
Property is lovely, clean, and updated. Just as listed and perfect for a weekend away. So close to the main strip - it felt like we could easily access our "home" at any time.

Great Spot for a Couple
Right in downtown Burlington so it is walkable to that area. Also not a bad drive up to Stowe if you like to ski. Kitchen was good for light cooking if you do not want to eat out for every meal.

Why they chose this property

This property is a gem in the middle of the city. We purchased this property from a friend, and feel like we hit the jackpot! It is very hard to find great locations like this in Burlington-they never go on the market, people hang on to them. It is quiet, safe, and you can park your car and walk to everything. We live 5 minutes away in Burlington and can be available to assist when needed. Additionally, we have great tenants/caretakers in the front apt. for emergencies, or when we are away. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO HOST A PARTY, THIS PLACE IS NOT FOR YOU. We are sorry if this sounds harsh, but we have had a couple of incidents, and need to be CLEAR on this. Thank You!

What makes this property unique

WE LOVE this location. Mark and Laurie personally renovated -with some help from contractors and friends ! This late 1800's home is rich in history and is in the Burlington Historical Registry. Originally a single family home, we converted it to a duplex in 2016. Careful attention to detail was important, with marble kitchen counters, heated kitchen and bathroom floors, hand crafted kitchen floor tiles and organic bed linens. The very high quality living room leather couch is very comfy, we spend many hours searching for something we would actually sleep on-NOTE: no cross bar!!! The covered porch is a great place to relax after a day out-take a nap, read a book, enjoy a glass of wine! We love this sweet apartment and know you will enjoy the surroundings, restaurants, boutique shopping on Church St, The beautiful Burlington Waterfront and Bike Path ( that will take you all the way to the rail trial in Colchester and a short bike ferry ride to the lovely Champlain Islands ) Breweries, Whiskey room, Night Life, bike path, lake front all just a few steps away. We are happy to share this Burlington GEM with you!
