It is almost time to start booking houses for this fall’s football season, as hosts all over South Bend prepare their homes for all of the Fighting Irish’s out-of-town fans. And this week, our home highlight is actually a mansion highlight, as we take a look at Eric and Nancy’s beautifully restored mansion located a few blocks from downtown South Bend!
This castle can accommodate up to 20 people with a comfortable 7 bedroom and 6 bathroom setup. Any group who rents this house for the weekend will be in for a treat. The home features stained-glass windows, a spacious sandstone porch – and it even features its own tower!
"This expansive historic home is an extraordinary example of the splendor of the Queen Anne style," says the home's listing, "and is replete with fine details inside and out including a stained glass window that was a medal winner at the famed 1893 Columbian Exposition in Chicago. Lovely architectural details decorate the outside including finely turned spindles on the cut sandstone porch, a corner turret with a conical roof, and cut and leaded glass windows."
Plus, with a close proximity to downtown, and famous eats like Café Navarre and LaSalle Grill, this mansion provides access to entertainment options the whole group will be sure to enjoy!
Past renters have had an amazing experience here and have raved about Nancy and Eric as being wonderful hosts. Hugh stayed here in October of last year and he had this to say about his experience: “Eric and Nancy were fantastic and did everything to ensure our stay at their beautiful home was extremely enjoyable.”
Juan, who stayed here just a few years prior, agrees: "It's safe to say the homeowners made every effort to ensure we had a 5-star experience. The house is AMAZING with plenty of rooms and bathrooms for a pleasant stay. The beds were very comfortable and the home was furnished with ample linens for all. We could not have found a better place for our ND-TX weekend! If you want a combination of excellent customer service, a beautiful home and a convenient location, this is the place for you. Go Irish!"
Make sure all of your family and friends (they will surely all fit in this house!) have an amazing game day weekend and reserve this mansion for the upcoming season…
