About this Property

• Sleeps 3

Our tiny home tries really hard to be as marvelous as the cedar tree it sits next to. It even dressed itself in fancy cedar siding and lathered itself with tung oil. And although its efforts may have failed (it s hard to top mother nature), a definite theme has been born. Runner-up names included Hail Cedar! and 20,000 Leagues Beneath the Cedar.

- Fans and white noise in the loft

The bicycles are especially great, because there are a few eateries and a music venue within a leisurely five min. ride. More on that later. Now, onto the home:

It s tiny! But it doesn t feel that way. The light color of the bamboo floor, the many windows and the high ceilings help to open it up. The loft holds a queen-sized bed, which sits low to the floor on tatami mats. There is a full bath with a rain-down shower, air vent, and cloth curtain door. There is a completely functional kitchen, with gas stove and microwave. There is a desk/table and a very comfortable futon couch that opens to sleep an (additional) adult or two kids (who are very welcome). The futon, when pulled out, measures 82” x 45.”

Conveniences for daily living abound: fast wi-fi; soaps, towels & bed linens; cookware; electrical kettle; coffee maker and french press; a selection of teas, Trader Joe's dark roast coffee; wine glasses and a wine opener, champagne glasses, pepper grinder, kosher salt, olive oil, honey, etc. If you are in need of anything, just ask!

The home sits on the front left corner of our property and is surrounded on three sides by a privacy fence. The front faces the driveway, which is where you'll pull up and park (left side). In effect, because of the tall fence, guests have an entire property with yard and driveway to themselves. Simple, keyless entry and a flood light that comes on if you arrive at nighttime.
