This 2-home complex is close to downtown, and features an expansive private yard. Your large group can spread out between a 3000 sq ft Victorican home (sleeps 13) and the adjacent carriage house (sleeps 4).
This property, indoors and outdoors, is ideal for group retreats and small family reunions. Outdoor features include a spacious covered porch, sun deck, gazebo with a fire pit, and plenty of lawn space for kids and games.
Main House:
A three-story Victorian with 5 bedrooms boasting a total of 8 beds and nearly 3,000 square feet, you and your group will have plenty of private spaces to wind down, or gather in the spacious common areas.
You'll have a choice of unique mattresses with different firmness levels to ensure a comfortable and quiet night's sleep.
* Master bedroom: The lucky guests who claim this entire 3rd floor for their stay will get to enjoy a King bed, a day bed with a trundle, their own private living room with a 65" smart TV..
* Our second floor includes 3 comfortable bedrooms, each with queen beds and Smart TVs. There's also a 4th (children's) bedroom with a twin over full bunk bed that sleeps up to 3. Be sure to take note of charming details like the hand-painted fireplace tiles and views of the friendly neighborhood. The second floor also has a centrally located updated full bathroom.
* Living room: Relax in the comfort of an old-world parlor, only this one has a wall-mounted 55" smart TV. This main living room expands into a 3-season room for more space.
* Dining room: Since the bedrooms can hold so many people in comfort, so should the dining room. Surrounded by original cabinets and fireplace, this room can easily serve a party of 10 all at once, with overflow seating in the adjacent living room
* Kitchen: What good would such a large dining room be without the kitchen to go with it? The stainless appliances in the chef's kitchen (microwave, fridge, oven, keurig, french press, toaster, toaster oven, blender and dishwasher) are sure to give you everything you'll need for a meal worthy of a wonderful stay. The gas oven alone features a commercial hood, broiler, griddle and heat lamps to keep everything nice and toasty.
* 3 season porch: Expanding the living room through the double doors into this bright and sunny space. A great place to enjoy your morning coffee.
* Outside: The flat, elevated corner lot is a great private place to grill or play with the family in the backyard.
