Charming Graham House

What a cute house in a great part of town! As a Graham native, this house offered lots familiarity and nostalgia as well as convenience to anything you might need! Just a very short drive from downtown, this nicely updated home had tons of charm and comfort. We are a family of 6 and the sleeping arrangements worked out nicely for us with privacy for teens upstairs and plenty of space for adults and young kids on the main level. The beds were comfy, the home was clean and spacious. I highly recommend checking it out if you’re visiting Graham or surrounding towns.

not good

left a note at the house telling of our problems. 1. Garbage from previous guests never emptied. Could not put our garbage in there. 2. Bugs and crickets in the house from cracks under the door, doors hard to open and close to screened porch, kitchen door and back gate, 3. Only 3 rolls of toilet paper for 10 people for 5 days. 4. Dogs barking from midnight till 3 or 4 in the morning. 5. Not enough towels and washcloths. The list goes on

Short, sweet stay

The property is an older home that has a few upgrades. One bedroom door upstairs didn't have a knob, or close and the downstairs bathroom didn't have a lock. Overall though, the house was clean and decently stocked with games, dishes and cooking supplies. It was perfect for our shirt stay in the area.

Very beautiful

I loved the property- it is an updated older home with lots of charm. The upstairs rooms have their own AC units since it is in a sort of attic type location but the bathroom upstairs is so nice. The beds are very comfortable as well and it is nice to have a well stocked kitchen. The only improvement I would suggest is to make a wider driveway since the second one is faraway, and the trees and bushes near both driveways needed trimming. Overall, love to stay at Elmay Properties they are always clean, comfortable and a nice home away from home!

Beautiful old house

This house worked well for our multi-generation family…darling room for children and comfortable rooms for adults. There is a step down into the living room that might be a challenge for some older people. Altogether we had a wonderful time here…lovely screened porch, fireflies at night…beautiful.

Greensboro Visit

This property was extremely comfortable and convenient for our stay in the Greensboro area. The online pictures gave an accurate portrayal of the property. It was nicely decorated and all of the living areas and beds were comfortable and clean. The location was a 5 minute walk to the charming downtown area of Graham, which had restaurants and most importantly for the kids, ice cream!. Aside from being near downtown Graham, the property was also conveniently situated for access to grocery stores, Greensboro, and for college visits for our oldest son to all of the nearby universities. The property came well equipped with extra toiletries, soap, shampoos, coffee, and the basics required for cooking meals. Overall, an excellent property.

Picture perfect!

Everything went smoothly from check in to check out. The house is lovely and the natural lighting is fabulous. We took so many amazing family pictures .The pillows were a bit firm for my liking but that’s just a personal preference. We quickly remedied the situation by running to the local Dollar General to by softer pillows for $3 each. Easy fix and we left them there so fingers crossed they will still be there for the next soft pillow enthusiasts. Tip: if you find that it is super hot in the bedrooms and cold in the kitchen and living room try covering the majority of the bedroom vents to force more air to the rest of the house (we prefer our bedrooms cooler anyways) . We had a rough first couple of nights sleep until we figured it out. After that the temperature in the house was very consistent and comfortable.

Host profile image
I have a deep appreciation for the Graham’s rich history and vibrant community. My family and I have lovingly restored this historic home, preserved its unique character while infusing it with modern comforts. We believe that the best way to experience a new place is to live like a local, and we've designed our home to provide just that - a warm, inviting space where you can immerse yourself in the authentic, small-town Graham lifestyle. As your hosts, we're dedicated to ensuring your stay is nothing short of exceptional, and we're always happy to share our insider tips on the best local spots to eat, drink, shop, and explore.

Why they chose this property

We chose Graham's historic district for its unparalleled charm, rich history, and strong sense of community. Our home is surrounded by stunning architecture that tells the story of the town's past, while also being just a short walk away from the best that downtown Graham has to offer. The neighborhood is a true gem, offering a perfect balance of tranquility and convenience.

What sets our home apart is the perfect balance of indoor coziness and outdoor tranquility.

Step outside, and you'll find yourself in a private oasis featuring a charming screened porch, an expansive backyard with a grill, firepit, and dining area, and a fully fenced yard that adds to the property's allure.

However, the true showstopper is the home's proximity to downtown Graham, providing a convenient and exciting backdrop for your stay. It's a rare find to have such a beautifully restored historic home just a few blocks from the heart of the town, and it's just one of the many reasons our home stands out as a unique and unforgettable destination.
