Townhouse in Harborne

Spacious, bright and private top-floor suite with it's own full bathroom, in a charming old rowhouse in the heart of Harborne. Central location: 2 min. walk to the popular Harborne High St, with numerous restaurants and pubs, cafes and stores to browse; good transport connections (bus). 10 min walk (0.5 miles) to QE Hospital, 20 min walk to University of Birmingham (0.8 miles), 50 min walk or 15-30 min bus ride to city centre depending on time of day (2.4 miles). Pets welcome. :) The space Plenty of room to relax and spread out, including a desk to work at overlooking treetops, cozy chair for reading, open space to do some yoga / work out, full private bathroom with new fixtures (sink, toilet and shower), a kettle if you'd like to make yourself a cup of tea in your suite, and of course, a comfortable queen bed to sleep in. Usually very quiet (faces garden), with great treetop and sunset views. Inside lock on suite door for extra privacy (although I typically have no need to go upstairs unless it's an emergency!). Parking: Free street parking (although it's not always easy to snag a spot). Bikes: There's also a safe place to keep bikes (walkway between houses behind a locked gate). Guest access In addition to your private suite upstairs, you're also welcome to use the kitchen for light food prep / cooking and eating (seating at island), and backyard garden (highly recommend the hammock in the warmer months!). You're also welcome to use the washer / dryer machine. During your stay I do really enjoy being a host... I'm happy to be social / offer advice on best places to eat or explore nearby; also equally happy to leave people to themselves. :) I do like to be able to greet guests on first arrival, but if that's not possible, there is a designated lockbox key (instructions shared via Airbnb app before arrival). Once you have your set of keys (separate from lockbox key), you're welcome to come and go as and when you like. I have lovely neighbours that have been very supportive of my Airbnb efforts, so you're welcome to say hello if you see them (up to you!); my only ask is that you're conscious of noise late at night. If I'm not home, I can be reached via phone / text or via Airbnb messaging if you have any questions or issues. Other things to note Suite is on top floor which means good privacy, but also two flights of somewhat steep stairs (well-lit with handrail). Fine for most, but worth noting! Really appreciate if you can remove your shoes when you come in. Feel free to store shoes in cubby at front door of house, or bring upstairs if you prefer. Please only book for yourself (and a guest), as I will not host "third parties" (also against airbnb rules). Thanks!
