This charming piece of history nestled on a hillside is a quaint 1919-built house. It isn't newly constructed, so we ask that you expect some things to be imperfect. For example the floors and steps may creek, you may have to give windows and doors an extra tug and their may be slightly uneven flooring areas due to setting. All of these things can be expected considering the age of the house. We like to call it character.
However, it's important to note that this house may not be suitable for everyone. If you have health issues or physical limitations, please consider carefully before booking, as the house features steep steps both indoors and outdoors that can be challenging to navigate.
Additionally, for the safety of our guests, we do not recommend this house for families with children under the age of five. The age of the house, combined with its location near traffic, makes it a potentially risky environment for young ones.
While this house may not be adorned for sheer beauty, its simplicity in staging prioritizes comfort and ease of use. It's the ideal haven for those who appreciate a no-frills, rugged aesthetic that offers a practical and inviting space to call home during your stay.

Accessing your cozy retreat is an adventure in itself, as the steep steps and narrow driveway can be a bit challenging due to it's tight squeeze. This driveway can comfortably fit two small cars at most, and sits snug between the houses. The driveway is shared at the moment. However, guest should have no issues parking in the driveway. There is an additional parking lot across the street that guest can use if the driveway in not sufficient (No worries, I own the parking lot) There is also a sign up stating House Keys parking Only. The driveway is on a hill, so if your vehicle is low to the ground, cut your wheels when pulling in and out of the driveway to avoid scraping spoiler due to the slope of the drive. Be cautions of traffic and pedestrians when backing out. If driveway is unacceptable or inadequate remember there is a parking lot across the street for guest use.
