About this property

Elegant Villa Near University of Oregon and Matthew Knight Arena

There's a video of the house on this website which will give prospective guests a good idea of the layout. This lovely home, built in 1926 and extensively updated, sits overlooking the University of Oregon. Fairmount Blvd.,one of the most prestigious streets in Eugene, is a short walk from the University and the Matthew Knight Arena. (Great for events including the U of O woman's and men's basketball!)

The fully equipped kitchen had granite counters, two drop-in gas cooktops, two refrigerators, dishwasher, garbage disposal and a lovely antique dining table that seats twelve.

The balcony/covered deck with gas barbecue and outside dining table has a magnificent view that makes it a perfect place to cook and entertain friends.

All rooms are fully furnished with king, queen or standard double beds. Linens, towels, paper products and all household items provided.

The owner's have a separate space below the house used as their office and storage for supplies for the house.

We are delighted to welcome family gatherings at our home. However we do not permit weddings.

Eugene Marathon Runtrip
We had 6 of 8 siblings (and some kiddos) fly in from all over the country to do the 5K, Half, & Marathon. The home is within walking distance of the race start, Tom's Party Store, coffee shops, Pre's Rock, & the beautiful Hendrick's Park with rhododendrons in full bloom in April. This is a perfect house for family gatherings! Those who need quiet can take the rooms up on the 4th floor & others who don't like stairs can take the 2 bedrooms on the lower levels. The house is older, but we were all really pleased with how clean it was! It rained all weekend so we were unable to enjoy the outdoor spaces. I ordered groceries to be delivered from Albertsons as we had no car & who want to spend time grocery shopping on vacay! Highly recommend! Lastly, Wendy was fantastic helping us add a night and answering questions. Thank you for sharing your home!

Great house for a group
By far the best stocked house I've rented. Plenty of dishes, glasses, utensils, pots and pans for a large crowd.

Great home for large family gatherings!
We rented 1819 Fairmount for my 40th birthday party- We hosted a Masquerade Murder Mystery Dinner Party and it was the perfect setting. The house had everything we needed and the owner of the home is wonderful and great with communication.
