Unexpected Style in a Cosy, Convenient In-Town Apartment

Our art-filled gem is recently renovated 2-bedroom, in-town apartment complete with a European-style luxury kitchen featuring Vermont marble counters. There are restored fir-wood floors, new carpeting and new paint everywhere, and brand new electrical-to-code wiring. We are air-conditioned and have toasty heating for winter. Complete with designer and heirloom furniture, antique and fine oriental rugs, nautical pieces, and original paintings by local artists; our second floor hideaway offers peace and quiet, privacy, and off-street parking with views to local shops and restaurants. Set up for work-at-home, we have high-speed internet and a work station overlooking a quiet street. across the street is a shared workspace for those who need more privacy. New landscaping, a garden sitting wall and seating; and Asian garden art line the stone pathway to the entrance to our little haven. New for fall of 2022 is a Solo Fire Pit for use in the garden and new Adirondack seating for four. Privacy fencing aesthetically separates our home from the new house next door. Soft garden & outdoor lighting guides you home at night.

Very cute and well done small apartment near main street in Manchester, and they take dogs. The dog run is perfect. Could have use a little more shoveling and snow removal during a snow storm, but well priced and comfortable. Well decorated.

Close to Everything, Surprising Spacious
Unit was bigger than we expected. We only used 1 of the bedrooms which had plenty of room for our stuff as well as beds we had brought for our dogs. The bathroom had a lot of space for things as well. The shower is very small (as other reviews have mentioned) but there are shelves for soap, shampoo, conditioner. The owner sends a PDF before check in. Some of the info might be out of date on it, so suggest confirming if anything listed is important to you.We stayed in March so we didn't get to use the yard or take advantage of walking to restaurants or shops (due to snow/ ice). But based on the layout & location staying here in the warmer weather would be nice.

Home in Manchester Vermont
Fabulous! Convenient walk to town, but private, quiet neighborhood. All amenities included, from towels/sheets, TV, speaker, kitchen appliances and necessities. Beautiful furnishings -- comfortable layout. Hot coco and roasting marshmallows at the garden firepit. So much nicer than staying in a B&B or motel/hotel -- at home in VT.

Very cute
Quaint cute apartment. Beds were comfortable. Cute tiny, but well-appointed kitchen. There was a Breville coffee maker but no instructions on how to use it, or where we could get the Breville pods. (Did not see them at the local grocery store.) Shower is understandably small, and we noticed some mold. All in all we were very happy with our stay!

Comfortable, clean, The weather was great, The only downside was we had trouble getting in as the place was not unlocked and we had to contact Verbo to get a code.. We would like to have had some spare towels (there were 2 bath towels, 2 hand towel and 1 wash cloth.)We would have liked a bath mat & spare bath towel

Clean cozy and convenient!
Family of four stayed here for the weekend. We canoed the Battenkill River into NY state and attended a friends 50 birthday party at Inn at Manchester. Very easy place to stay and very quiet with great art work, bedding and adorable kitchen that enabled us to easily eat breakfast before our local adventures.

Highly adequate
Wonderful updates in kitchen (open shelves, marble countertops, stainless appliances, mini-dishwasher, etc.), clean and comfortable bedding, nice-sized bedrooms, and convenient location. However, very squeaky floors (most noticeably sloped) and doors, cracked and sagging ceilings, very small/narrow stall shower, dim lighting, and a general “not fresh” odor. It worked for us but a recommendation would need to be qualified.

Well appointed accommodations, convenient location, cozy; would stay again.
This property was as pictured, well appointed and in a good location. Quiet surroundings. Stayed here in February during a winter weather wind warning with gusts up to 55mph and the heat in the unit was more than adequate. In fact quite cozy. As well, the beds and all furniture are very comfortable. Linens and towels were fresh and unit is well appointed. Would love to see this unit add a microwave. We did not hear back from our attempts to contact the owners through VM and text with a couple questions we had during the stay, which does not sound consistent with other guest experiences, so I do hope they are okay. I did speak with Nancy live prior to renting the unit though to be able to attest that she was lovely and very open to any question. All in all I would definitely recommend this rental to others and would like to stay again. A comfortable cozy feel to this property.

We will return
This place was a gem. The location was great. We were 2-3 blocks from the Main Street and it was an easy walk to great restaurants. The space was on the second floor of a house. The house was clean, neat and well stocked with everything you need for cooking. (Even some condiments, cooking oils and sugar, and then some.) It is a dog friendly place, however, we decided not to bring our pet because we wanted to celebrate some anniversary dinners out. I was a little nervous that the place may have had signs of past dogs (smell and hair), but there was no sign of past pets. It was clean and free of any signs of past animal stays. I regret not bringing my dog because she would have loved the large fenced in play area. She will come next time. If you are looking for a nicely stocked, clean place and very close to town, then this is a great pick and the bed was comfy too. The shower may be a bit on the smaller side, but worked well with good water pressure. We will return. Contact with the host was excellent. KB

Very cute, nice, clean place in a good location...
This little apartment is right in Manchester Center and is lovely. It's very charming and perfect for 2 people or possibly 2 couples, altho it might be a little tight with 4 people. Me and a friend stayed for a long weekend. We each had our own bedroom with VERY comfortable beds. The bathroom is clean, and has a shower only. FYI - the shower is tight. So if you're a larger/taller person, it could be an issue. The kitchen is small but again very clean. Has everything you need. You are very close to everything, i.e. shops and restaurants. We ate at Gringo Jacks one nite and loved it. And another nite we ate at Depot Street Burgers, also very good. We walked to both. And walked to many other places. Across the street is a Starbucks and some outlet shops. Note: the TV...yes there is one, BUT you need to have the Google Home app on your phone in order to work the TV. As well as something like a Netflix or Hulu account. The TV has Google ChromeCast, which both me and my friend were not familiar with, so we had difficulty working the TV. It wasn't until a phone call with Google and the router being reset, that things finally worked. If you don't plan to watch TV then it's not an issue. Overall, I loved this place! And you can't beat the location for all things Manchester.

About the host

Hosted by Nancy and Steve Burzon

Host profile image
Nancy and Steve lived in Vermont from 2000 when they left the New York area and chose a more rural lifestyle. Since then they both established businesses in the area. They have successfully operated a VRBO property for more than 12 years. This is their 3rd and newest VRBO apartment--the others have been sold.

Why they chose this property

Location is everything and this is in a residential area with private, off street parking. There is an area for outdoor enjoyment as well as a fresh and newly renovated interior. Dogs are welcome too. (No cats....not to discriminate against cats, but there are some allergies to consider.) The Manchester Depot area is home to great shopping , art galleries, and excellent dining.....all within easy walking distance.

What makes this property unique

Guests can walk to unique Manchester eateries like the famous Al Ducci’s Italian Deli, the creative Turkish restaurant & antique shop called ‘Depot 62’, or the award winning Zoey’s Sandwich Shop. Or you can hit the familiar franchise scene with Starbucks and Subway located in the shopping center almost visible just down the street. We are close to well-known outlet shopping and once you park in our driveway, you can walk to almost anything you desire. On the practical side there is a Vermont liquor outlet and a Price Chopper right in the neighborhood.
