Nestled in the heart of Irvington’s historic district, the Parker Lane is a tastefully furnished home with a nod to mid-century modern design - a spacious duplex with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, and outfitted with a generously stocked kitchen, so you have the option to cook meals and brew up fresh coffee during your stay. Stroll the brick lined streets of Irvington and discover the local shops, restaurants, and coffee houses.
Originally constructed in the early 1900s, the Parker Lane house features beautifully restored hardwood floors, high ceilings, original wood trim and solid hardwood interior doors. Each space has been thoughtfully outfitted to make your stay comfortable, cozy, and relaxing. The house is designed to comfortably accommodate six guests.
The main floor features an amply stocked kitchen, a coffee and tea nook, a mudroom with an in unit washer and dryer that guests can use during their stay, a full bathroom, a dining room set with six seats, a Crosley record turntable and a vinyl collection, a stack of fun, interactive board and card games, and a cozy, inviting living room set up with a 65 inch television - the perfect space to relax.
Three upstairs bedrooms - including a master bedroom with a king bed and a desk, a bunk room with two twin beds, and a third room with a queen bed - are outfitted with 12 inch memory foam mattresses that provide support and comfort. Each bedroom has a 55 inch TV, and we provide sound machines to help promote restful sleep, and drown out noise from the occasional passing trains and the ambient city sounds. The second bathroom is thoughtfully stocked to make your stay more comfortable.
Finally, there is a partially fenced in backyard that is shared with the other side of the duplex. The back lot includes two guest parking spaces, as well as a cozy fire pit area, complete with outdoor chairs and tables, lit with strings of suspended patio lights.
Enjoy the walkability of Irvington - local restaurants, coffee houses, taprooms and cocktail lounges, shops and bookstores, are all just up the street from the Parker Lane townhouse. Amble along the Pennsy Trail, grab a pastry from Landlocked, savor a slice of upper crust pizza from Jockamo’s, or try a hearty skillet breakfast at Lincoln Square.
Downtown Indy is a mere 15 minute drive away - discover the fun shops and food offerings in Fountain Square, Mass Ave, the Bottleworks district, and enjoy a leisurely Canal walk. Whether you’re settling in for a weekend visit, planning to stick around to see the sights, or just passing through, the Parker Lane house is the perfect place for you to book while you’re in Indy!
ACCESSIBILITY //
The home was built in the early 1900s and some features were not originally designed with accessibility in mind. We've updated it to make it as comfortable as possible, but here are a few things you may want to note:
1. There are 4 concrete steps leading to the entrance to the home. The last step is particularly tall.
2. The bedrooms are all located on the 2nd floor of the home. There is a flight of stairs that are relatively steep to reach the second floor.
3. There are 2 full bathrooms. One is located on the main floor, one on the upper floor.
OCCUPANCY //
The house is set up to comfortably accommodate 6 guests. If your party is larger than 6, please reach out to the hosts so we can navigate hosting a larger group. Pack and play cribs are available upon request - please give advance notice to your host.
Guests have access to the entire living space of the home and share access to the front porch and backyard with the neighboring unit. Self check-in allows guests to enter the home and come and go freely via a digital keypad. Two off-street parking spots are allotted to guests and street parking is available if you have additional vehicles.
