Downtown Midcentury Home- Walk to Everything!

Enjoy all that Downtown Edwardsville has to offer while staying at a local, luxury accommodation within walking distance to all the action. Less than 0.2 miles from the Courthouse, cafes, bars, breweries and restaurants! Whether you are traveling for business or pleasure, the Kansas Street Guest House can connect you to one of the most charming small towns in the Midwest. We can help you create an incredibly memorable stay, one in which you can eat, drink, and LIVE like a local.
One dog is welcome to stay for a nightly fee of $25 (fee collected after booking with pet agreement). Weight limit is 50 lb. Pets are not allowed on furniture but we will do our best to make them comfortable during their stay at KSGH! Our yard is fully fenced for your pup’s outdoor fun (and safety!)
The house is located just off of Main Street- less than 0.2 miles to the courthouse, restaurants, coffee shops, shopping and more.
You’ll be provided a door code for your property access- no key handoffs needed!
Modern amenities and updates make this midcentury home the perfect place to live and work while in Edwardsville. From the decorative original front door in the perfect downtown neighborhood to the completely renovated master bedroom ensuite, you'll be delighted by the charm and functionality of this home. The restored original hardwood is met with clean and updated paint & trim. Kitchen is newly renovated with beautiful Cambria countertops, a Nespresso coffee bar, and a cozy eat-in breakfast nook. The open concept dining room is a great gathering place with plenty of room to enjoy a special meal and chat. Working remotely? No problem! A dedicated office with printer and high-speed wifi is exactly what you need to work efficiently so you can enjoy more time downtown. In addition to the new master bath, two classically midcentury-style bathrooms are a throw back to days gone by. There is a fully fenced outdoor living space so feel free to enjoy your morning coffee or evening cocktail al fresco on the patio. Luxury mattresses and percale cotton hotel linens are in every room ensure you'll wake up feeling refreshed.
You’re so close to downtown, you can enjoy all of Main Street's amazing restaurants, shops, cafes and watering holes on foot! If you'd like a little more speed, we can arrange for a local group to provide standard or electric-powered bikes for your stay. Metered street parking is available downtown but is time limited during business hours. There is a free lot on Main Street between the Butcher Shop and The Juicery but it can fill up quickly with Downtown EDW guests! Uber is readily available and for those that want to voyage further, the MCT bus station is steps away.

Wonderful property in the heart of everything
We booked this to visit with family in the area and so appreciated the thoughtful touches and how close by everything was. We also enjoyed walking to the coffee shops every morning. I can’t recommend this property enough. This is truly a wonderful place to stay!

Wonderful stay!
My wife and I rented the Kansas Street House for the weekend of my son’s wedding. It made the perfect place for us and our daughter and her boyfriend to stay and get ready for the wedding. The home was wonderfully comfortable and clean. The only complaint/suggestion would be more comfortable bed pillows. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

My daughter was getting married and I found this beautiful home just minutes away from the church. Our hosts made everything go smoothly and even accommodated with an earlier check in for rehearsal. We would definitely stay again thank you so much!!

Great Stay!
First, something just very slightly critical: I suggest creating an easier to manage gate lock and getting towels that don’t shed. Other than that it was a wonderful stare. This was a great break from hotels as I could have my aged mother visit, her granddaughter, and the rest of her family in a comfortable setting. The home is quite nice with contemporary Decour, and it was very close to all the shops, and everything one might want to get to uptown. We felt safe, secure, and very comfortable.

Hidden Gem
The house was a little hidden gem in heart of Edwardsville! The first night we were there the Living Room TV was not working! Joe came over the next day & replaced it. They are very responsive to messages. The house was very comfortable & had everything you would need. Very comfortable beds & our dog loved the fenced in area. Would definitely stay here again!

Great Time
Could not have been more pleased. Quality home, spacious, easy access, and walking to down town area. Owner accommodated our request to come a little early to decorate for a birthday. Great to gather around the big dining table and the outside patio. Not a complaint but it would be great to have a couple extra fold up chairs for outside. That is a lovely area as well. Everyone raved about their bed - comfort. We loved the Nespresso coffee too. And maybe there was a coffee pot but we didn’t see one. Thank you.

Perfect Place!
We were in Edwardsville for a wedding and this was a very fun place to stay! Super great location, we were able to walk most places. The house was very clean and had lots of character. Also, had lots of space for us to all be able to hang out and catchup. We even had a welcome binder with the answer to any questions we may have or detail we may need. Seems like the hosts tried to think of it all. The perfect place to stay for the weekend!!

High quality comfort
Great property for a family or small group. Exceptionally clean and well-appointed. Very easy access to St Louis and the surrounding area. Walk to restaurants, stores, community events in a safe neighborhood. Beds were super comfortable and linens were very high quality. Bathrooms were spacious and stocked with essentials. Kitchen seemed recently remodeled with high end appliances, cabinets, and dish/cookware. Very user-friendly. Hosts were great with communication!!! Highly HIGHLY recommend.

WOW
I was skeptical of all the rave reviews but I most certainly agree. This place is a gem! It is just as cute/cozy as it looks and as the reviews say. They have literally thought of everything!! We needed a zip lock bag, viola. Bottom drawer in kitchen… I needed dog bowls; viola! In the hall closet, with a dog bed and other dog fun items. I needed an iron… in the master closet w/ a *good* iron! Blow dryers in each full bath upstairs, super cute little vintage items, a record player with of course, albums in the cabinet below and full bar equipment/glasses… seriously. Everything. I will definitely be back. I live in Chicago and our mom is in a nursing facility there. A perfect place for my sister and I to stay!

Staying at the Kansas St. home was everything we imagined and more! Location is very convenient as stores, restaurants, and other random essentials are just minutes away. The hosts are absolutely pleasant and accommodating to ensure that your stay will be superb. I had a few questions throughout the booking process and always received thorough responses in stellar time.

Property was lovely for our family, including our Corgi. Bedrooms were the perfect size. Beds were so comfortable! The charm of the older house was perfect. Close to a lot of fabulous dining. The dining table was perfect for some puzzles and games!

Amazing Experience!
I would absolutely recommend this house to anyone! The experience was amazing from the moment I walked into the door. The house was stocked with everything I needed and more. My bridesmaids and I stayed here the weekend of my wedding & everyone had a great experience. The owners also checked in frequently to make sure everything was going smoothly.

Wedding Weekend
I stumbled upon this house when looking for a place to stay on my wedding weekend. It was the absolute PERFECT house for all my bridesmaids, mom, and I to get ready in the day of and was a nice retreat from home for my now husband and I to stay at afterwards. Joe and Erin made my welcome extra special with a sweet note, snacks, and a Polaroid to document our time! The house was clean and so spacious. I can’t say enough positive things and would recommend 10/10!

The ONLY place to stay!
The Kansas Street Guest House is the ONLY place you would ever want to stay while visiting Edwardsville. The location is incredible and the house is simply stunning. I love what they’ve done to upgrade and modernize the aesthetic but maintain the mid-century original qualities of the home. You can walk ANYWHERE. Jump on the MCT for a bike ride/walk or just enjoy the back patio with fenced yard. Do not stay anywhere other than this amazing house. Book now.

Charming Upscale Home
A beautifully renovated 1950's home that has retained its historic charm and with all the modern amenities. This home is spacious, well-appointed, cozy, and stocked with everything we needed to cook and host a Christmas dinner, including seating for our family of 10! Downtown Edwardsville with its numerous restaurants and shops is within walking distance. Owners Erin and Joe were very responsive to all our questions and made check-in and check-out simple and convenient. We would rent this home again!
