Unique and private loft that was once the stables of the carriage house of Frank Enger. Mr. Enger’s family manufactured carriages and shipped them around the country in the 1800s. When Frank took over, he eventually began putting motors in the carriages and ultimately founded the Enger Motor Company. This beautiful space combines old-world character with the modern amenities of today. The fully renovated space highlights exposed brick, a new kitchenette, new bathroom, and beautiful furnishings.

You`ll find the kitchenette is a perfect launching point for your night and for making everyone coffee in the morning while you relax. The private patio is great and beautifully furnished with plants and plenty of seating. It will be great for having a bottle and enjoying the evenings. This space is the perfect option for travelling professionals, nurses, doctors, or simply couples or small families looking for a getaway.

We tried to strike a perfect balance between the original character of the property and designing in features to make the home really enjoyable day-to-day.

Our guests will enjoy a private loft in the carriage house stables of our historic home. The 1.8 acre, fully gated property boosts lush gardens, secluded landscape, and various sitting areas around the grounds to enjoy.

Our family lives in the main house at Marion Hall Mansion and are available for anything you might need during your stay

North Avondale has been described as a piece of heaven...right in the city. Some of the grandest homes in Cincinnati grace the winding streets of this historic neighborhood. The homes here represent a wide range of architectural styles dating back to the late 1800s.

    This is by far the best accommodations that we've had! Love the history of the place. Love the way it's being restored. Love the idea of a gated fenced-in area. Almost a park-like setting. The amenities were great. The only thought that we had is switch to a better bed and maybe a king size bed.

    We booked the studio for a writers retreat. The ambiance and overall eclectic vibe was perfect for the pair of us. The kitchenette was well appointed, but to be fair the Keurig was the only appliance we used. Communication was thorough and appreciated, but we had no concerns or issues that warranted anything further. Again, all very much appreciated. The highlight of the location was the joy of being in a dog friendly environment and getting to interact with each of the pups! We will return and have already started making plans for the next retreat.

    This was our first time using a service like Vrbo, and probably had more questions than most guests. At just under a thousand square feet, the place was plenty big and comfortable enough for us (myself & 2 kids). I assumed that, at that size, that we would have the entire Carriage house, but it was *much* more impressive than that. While there were no ‘shared’ spaces as part of our rental, I did not anticipate being under a second floor unit. It was not overly loud by any means, but I’ve never lived anywhere that had a shared wall/ceiling/floor. Had I known that, I likely would have ruled the place out, and that would have been a mistake. Even with the shared ceiling/floor, it was great. I’m sure we used the kitchen more than most, having groceries in the fridge, using the toaster oven to bake cinnamon rolls in the morning(s) and dinner as needed. The kitchen(-ette) is not fully equipped for everything you might possibly need for a group of 4, but was perfect for us.The foldout couch was surprisingly very comfortable. Advertised as pet-friendly, we did not see any evidence of previous pets having stayed there, which was nice. It would be nice if the lights were wired differently to allow for a little better darkness in the sleeping area, while having a single light on in the kitchen, but I’m probably reaching at this point. It was great.

    It's an old carriage house, so despite three heaters, it was cold and drafty. Plenty of warm blankets were provided and the heat lamps in the bathroom helped a lot. Shower was hot, but tiny.

    My sister and I came for our great-nephew's wedding. 10 days before our trip my email was hacked and I couldn't get into my email at all. Then 2 days before our trip, I went through Hurricane Milton in Fl. I was able to contact Matt to explain about my email problem, and he agreed to send the check-in info to my cell phone. My sister was able to get there on time, but due to an airport closure on my side, I was delayed by a day. We had a lovely time at the wedding, and was able to visit a museum downtown on Sunday and go to the Cinci museum in the old train station (Beautiful and very cool place). The wedding was in DT Cinci, and your location was great and easy to get back and forth to the wedding activities. My only suggestion would be to put a 'No Parking' sign on the garage door that was next to our rental, since we mistakenly parked in front of it, not allowing the person who lived there to be able to get out. We were sooo sorry that happened.
