This is not a typical short-term rental; it is not a remodeled dependency or a freshly constructed unit in an old neighborhood, nor is it located on a tiny lot in a questionable or remote area. The old wood floors, tall ceilings, original moldings, plasterwork, windows, and doors exude a special warmth, character, and appeal that is very difficult to achieve in new construction. The exterior copper roof and guttering provide additional warmth and character. It`s the real deal!

*If needing early check-in or late check-out please DO NOT ask until the day before check-in at earliest due possible last min. units. If you definitely NEED it, I would suggest renting the nighttime prior*

*Pet Policy: Only Modest Animals under 25 pounds (max. of 2) allowed with prior written approval ($200 non-returnable fee per pet).Must have authorization prior to reservation.*
