Who it serves

Relocations, displaced households and work assignments

The house takes extended stays from three kinds of guests: households relocating for a new job, families displaced while their own home is repaired, and professionals on assignment in the Raleigh area. Both homes are fully furnished, with bed linens, towels and a stocked kitchen.

A household relocating for a new job can live in Tessa or Julianne while it looks for a permanent home. Walgreens, the O2 Fitness gym and a WakeMed walk-in clinic are within about a mile on foot, and our things to do near the house page gives directions to each.

Families displaced by home repairs can stay in either home while the work is finished; the questions below explain how an insurance-paid stay is booked. Professionals on assignment can book one home alone or share it with colleagues on the same project. For a shorter trip, see places to stay near Raleigh.

A desk for two in Julianne

Julianne's fourth bedroom holds a double daybed and a desk for two: a floating wood desk with two chairs and wall shelves beside a window. Free wifi covers both homes. The room has its own door, so it works as a quiet office for one person or a shared workspace for two.

Tessa has no desk, so a guest who works from the house most days should book Julianne or the whole house.

Before you book

Check-in, parking and house rules

  • Visitors: only registered guests stay inside the homes, for insurance reasons. Message ahead if you expect a visitor.
  • Quiet hours: 10pm to 8am.
  • Stairs: four stories and no elevator. Tessa's bedrooms are one flight up and Julianne's are three.
  • Pets: not preferred. Ask before you book and we decide case by case.
  • Smoking: no smoking of any kind.
