About this property

2 blocks to FSU,Campus tours/visits,King bed,Gated community w/2 pools,Free park

Enjoy a stylish centrally-located 2 bed / 2.5 bath 2nd floor condo, great for campus visits and sporting events, concerts and downtown Tallahassee.

+ The condo is an 10-12 min walk to the Florida State University campus and sports complexes (no need to pay for expensive parking).

+ The condo is .9 miles from College Town which has several shops, restaurants/bars & night life.

+ The condo is also 2 miles from the Donald Tucker Civic Center (concerts & graduation) and from down town Tallahassee/the State Capital buildings.

This spacious 2nd floor, 2 bedroom 2.5 bath condo is nestled in a gated community. For the security and peace of mind of our guests, we use a Smart lock which provides a different and unique access code for each and every guest that is only active for the duration of their stay with us. The community has two swimming pools & a beach volleyball court. The condo was recently renovated from top to bottom.

The professionally cleaned residence provides you with all the comforts of home.
+ Wake up to the smell of freshly brewed coffee from the coffee bar and enjoy it out on the private second story balcony.
+ We have regular or decaf, and a variety of tea’s can be found at the coffee bar that is located adjacent to the dining area.

We have fast Xfinity Internet.
+ Need fast internet for work? With 600mbps you won’t have any issue logging in or taking a Zoom call while your family enjoys streaming a movie on the 55” Smart TV that includes Disney + and Hulu. You can also simply take a break and curl up on our comfy couch with your favorite book.

Kitchen :
+ The kitchen is fully stocked for all of your basic cooking needs so if you want to fry or bake, we’ve got a pan for you.

Bedrooms (2) :
+ The master bedroom has a King size bed & the second bedroom has a Queen size bed. Each of the bedrooms has a private en suite and a walk in closet making this condo perfect for a longer stay.
+ Each bedroom is equipped with a 40” Smart TV for catching your favorite show before falling asleep.
+ Upon request, the guests will have access to an oversized Queen size air mattress for additional sleeping space. There is an additional $50 fee that we are charged by our cleaners to launder the additional linens & bedding for the air mattress. We will need the air mattress requested & paid for prior to your arrival.
** We do not allow any sleeping on the couch for sanitary purposes.

Community Amenities :
Get out and burn some energy or just soak up some of the Florida sun and fun!!
+ You will have access to (2) gated swimming pools. Each pool area has a couple sets of table/chair's as well as lounge chairs. All of which are on a first come first serve basis.
+ beach volleyball court.

Some additional information about the property :
+ There is a condo on the first floor which is directly below this condo.
- The 1 bedroom condo (650 sq ft) on the first floor is directly below this condo. We rent this 1st floor condo out on VRBO as well which is perfect if guests need an additional space for their family or group that they are traveling with.
- Reach out to us if you would be interested in renting both condos.
+ Our only ask is that our 2nd floor guests make every effort to be considerate of the guests below especially when walking around inside the condo after 9pm and before 8am.
+ We are not asking for you to tiptoe, the sound of normal walking is normally not an issue for the first floor guests. When moving throughout the house barefoot, please try not to walk on your heels & no running or jumping please. Thank you.
+ We added additional sound proofing in between the two residences when we renovated the entire building but as in all multi-level properties, heavy footsteps can travel through the floor from the 2nd story condo to the first floor condo.
+ The first floor bedroom is directly below the 2nd floor condo's living room.

We greatly appreciate your understanding and cooperation.

Information about the gated community that is adjacent to Florida State University :
+ The majority of the residents living in the condo community are permanent residents that range from retirees, young families, young professionals & a approximately 50% of the residents in our community are college students due to the close proximity to both Florida State University & FAMU campuses.
+ Periodically you may hear external events going on (mainly outside of our community) late into the evening/night. These external events are normally only on home football game weekends & Holiday weekends (Halloween & Homecoming). These external events are normally not an issue for our guests as our community is normally very quiet but from time to time these events will last past 10 or 11pm.
+ For that reason, we have added small sound machines in each bedroom to help with canceling any external noise.

Feel free to reach out to me with any questions or concerns.

Great Stay Close to FSU

Brad was an excellent host! After our first VRBO was cancelled due to a hurricane, we had to make alternate reservations with very little time. Brad responded to my initial inquiry immediately, answered all my questions quickly, and helped us with our booking in a matter of hours. The property was minutes away from Collegetown and the FSU campus. Everything was immaculate, plenty of amenities, and a beautiful VRBO. Check-in was clearly communicated and the host was flexible with our schedule.

Must Book for Family Vacay!!!

PERFECT place to stay with your family. We were central to everything in the city so commuting was timeless!! The entire condo was amazing from the entry way to the warm and inviting bedrooms. It was very neat and well decorated with lots of natural sunlight. The kitchen looked stunning and including everything needed to make dinner time a breeze. This was truly our home away from home!! The host was very helpful and polite the entire stay. We will definitely book this rental again!!

Perfect place to stay

Our stay here was exactly as described. We needed to be near FSU and was the perfect location to the university and airport, we just weren’t sure about the surrounding neighborhood but the community is gated. The condo and pool areas were very clean. Appliances and AC were all very nice as we did cook and do laundry so was important to us. The beds were very comfortable comfy too and able to get a great nights sleep. Brad answered all of our questions promptly! We will be back!

Perfect in every way!

Checked in after a late arrival, the host described the arrival process to a T. The Apartment was beautiful, clean, and spacious. The decor was super cute and friendly. Nice updated appliances and TV in all rooms. Wifi was easy to use. Smart TVs for every need. Coffe bar was stocked, just need your own creamer. We stayed two nights in complete cleanliness and comfort. We are hoping to come back in September.

Super Clean & Looks exactly like pictures!

Visiting from Boston. This home is very clean which is a huge plus for me. There is everything that you need in the house from fully stocked kitchen, washer dryer, 2 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, shampoo conditioner and body wash attached to showers, cute balcony etc.. The check in/out process is super easy and owners very responsive. They also honored a little later checkout due to flight delay. Only stayed a couple of days to tour colleges in the area which are super convenient to get to. Def need a car to get around, very close to airport (about 10-15 mins). No issues at all and would stay again if in the area. This is in a condo/townhouse gated complex, felt very safe. Thank you for having us.

About the host

Hosted by Brad Pierce

Host profile image
We are very passionate about providing our guests with the excellent service that we would expect and a quality place to stay while in town. We are looking forward to communicating and hosting you.

We have been involved in Real Estate since 2017. We started Past the Porch Properties, LLC in 2018. We specialize in short term, mid term & long term rentals and property management. We have been short term and mid term rental hosts since April 2022.



I grew up in Tallahassee. My wife Carrie (Co Host) & I graduated from Florida State University in 1999. I have been in the Financial Services industry since 2000. We love to travel every chance we get and enjoy meeting new people.

Why they chose this property

We chose this property/neighborhood for the following reasons :
- Secure & quiet neighborhood that is conveniently located to Florida State University, College Town & downtown Tallahassee / State Capital buildings.
- The location! 2 blocks from Florida State University and Bobby Bowden Field at Doak Campbell Stadium and all of the other sports complexes.
- The neighborhood consists of Carriage style Condos. The condo (1100 sq ft) for this listing is located on the 2nd floor.
- This property also has a 1 bedroom (650 sq ft) condo on the first floor which is directly below this condo. We rent this 1st floor condo out on VRBO as well which is perfect if guests need an additional space for their family or group that they are traveling with.
- Reach out to us if you would be interested in renting both condos.
- The first floor condo guests will access the first floor condo through a door located on the backside of the condo.
The first floor condo and the second floor Condo are both completely separate and completely secure residences from one another. You will have the entire second floor condo to yourself.

As in all multi-level properties, heavy footsteps can travel through the floor from the 2nd story condo to the first floor condo.
*** Our only ask is that our guests make every effort to be considerate of the guests below especially when walking around inside the condo from 8pm to 8am. We are not asking for you to tiptoe, just to please not stomp, run or jump around while inside the condo. We greatly appreciate your understanding and cooperation.

** The garage is off limits (not apart of this listing). There is a secured door in the stairwell at the base of the stairs . The door inside the stairwell is completely secure /locked from inside your condo by 2 locks (including a deadbolt). The door is also locked from inside the garage with an additional lock so that there is no way to access the garage from the condo and vice versa via this doorway.

What makes this property unique

This Comfy Condo is located in a gated community within the City of Tallahassee that is 2 blocks from Florida State universities campus and is approximately an 10 minute walk from Doak Campbell football stadium as well as all other sports stadiums. You will have a view of Doak Campbell from our elevated private balcony. The condo community is nestled in between a neighborhood with single family homes on one side, an active small business park / older warehouse district on the other side and our condo community is 1 block over from Indian Village (another condo community) which is directly across the street from Doak Campbell Stadium.

For your peace of mind, The crime rate in the area surrounding our gated community is very low according to our monthly report we get from Ring (Ring Camera), Ring gets their information from the Tallahassee Police Department. Many of the students in the community walk / ride scooters to campus on a daily basis.

The condo has multiple restaurants, as well as Starbucks, Chick-Fil-A, Whataburger, Crumbl & Insomnia Cookies as well as grocery stores (Aldi, Publix) within a 3-5 minute drive. The condo is .5 mile from College Town (multiple dining restaurants, bars & night life), 1.7 miles to Donald Tucker Civic Center (concerts, conventions, basketball games & graduation) & 1.9 miles to State office buildings / downtown Tallahassee.
