My Sister's House is a revitalized 1949 cottage within walking distance of Downtown Greensboro and Cone Hospital. Two bedrooms, one bath with side by side front loading washer and dryer in the kitchen. Off-street parking in back, TV (no cable - on purpose) with internet utilities, central heat and air, hot water heater, linens and cooking tools are all provided. This space was created as an outlet for the love we have for our sisters both blood-related and from another mother.
Sisters is a small cottage-style home in Idlewood neighborhood within close proximity and pedestrian-friendly to downtown Greensboro NC, Cone Hospital, Mid-town, Latham Park, and many urban trails.

We live up the street in the brick house on the corner of Grayland and Wendover. We love to meet our guests but occasionally don't cross paths.
