But we were smitten by the 200 year old stone home and felt we could bring it back to life. Inside is a carefully curated & professionally designed home filled with unique murals and hand-painted tiles, original art and décor. LIVING SPACES There are two living room areas with the main dining table for 8. There is a second dining area for 6 if you want a more quiet space. Adjacent to the main dining area is the fully equipped chef's kitchen with an Induction Stove and brand new appliances. Everything you need to create a dinner is there to support you. ROOMS Two bedrooms have window seats for cozying up with your favorite book, or to take a cat nap. Every room has luggage racks & bedside charging ports on each nightstand. Room 1 – 1 Queen size bed (downstairs) Master en suite with a bathroom, with a walk in shower. Has access to the side yard. The Queen mattress is a hybrid mattress of memory foam and coil springs with a pillow top pad. It has a mini-split for both heat and AC, and is very private from the rest of the house. The bathroom has handmade tiles on wall and floor, with a copper vessel sink and a beautifully finished custom wood vanity shelf. Room 2 - 1 Queen size bed (third floor facing street) The queen mattress is a hybrid inner spring and memory foam. A substantial closet with a dresser, ironing board and iron gives you a place for your clothes. You have a Smart TV for you to relax if you wish. A skylight to see the beautiful night sky and ceiling fan to bring you comfort. A nod to the past with a stain-glass cubby hole that we truthfully have no idea what it was for!! But it is beautiful! Room 3 - 1 Queen size bed (third floor facing back of property) Has a window seat with a view of the back yard. A comfortable queen size hybrid inner spring / memory foam mattress. Bedroom 2 and Bedroom 3 share a full bathroom with brand new amenities: A deluxe rainfall shower head; a glass block wall and a hand-painted mural; LED vanity lighting. The two bedrooms that share a bathroom (Bedroom 2 and 3) are on the third floor and two flights up from the other bedroom (just something to be aware of if you’re traveling with kids). Room 4 - 1 Queen size bed (loft bedroom) This room is reached by going up its own staircase and is a loft with a bathroom all to itself. The queen size mattress is a hybrid memory foam/coil spring mattress with a pillow top mattress pad. This room shows the history of the house with a stone wall the entire length of the room. We have been told that the stable boy used to live up there! It has a mini-split for both heat and AC, and is very private from the rest of the house. Guest Access You will receive a code 24 hours prior to the day of check-in for the smart lock on the main yellow door facing road. There is a parking area to the right of the house. Once inside, you will be greeted immediately by a stairway that lights up to beckon you to the main floor. Other things to note This is an old house, and we have taken great effort to modernize it while retaining its old-world charm. The house does have its quirks, but that is part of its charm. No fires are permitted in the indoor fireplaces. Please respect this and do not light any fires inside the fireplace at all!! You will NOT have access to a washer or dryer during your stay, unless you are staying for 4 days or longer. WILDLIFE & MAINTENANCE Our home is in a rural residential neighborhood with a lot of wildlife. You will often see deer roaming on our property. We have pest control & insect treatments monthly. We love our 200+ year old home, but what comes with the joys of an old home is, well, tiny crevices, and sometimes there are "unwelcomed guests". We do not want to invite any insects or mice into our home by making it easy for them to eat anything. Please put your food in the cabinets and refrigerator. You will hear traffic noise because the home is located near a small highway. It is not on the highway, but near it. We provide sound machines for night, and it has not been a problem with any guest. Please be aware that is not completely secluded, especially during the colder months when the tree cover is reduced. In the case of forecasted snow, local paved roads are well maintained by the town. We monitor the snow conditions and have it plowed if over 4" of snow. The house is cleaned according to the Covid-19 sanitization policies of Airbnb.
So many good thing about this rental. First off, Nancy was great. Responded quickly to all my questions and was very kind and helpful. The house was perfect for two families of four. Two kitchens. Two living areas. Two dining areas. Bed rooms are far apart for privacy. However big common area spaces where all 8 of just could hang out together comfortably. The house is 200 years old, but completely updated. You get that historical old house charm with modern comfortable living. Overall great experience.
If was a sad occasion but this airbnb was very accomodating . Lots of entertaining space.
The house was beautiful and incredibly equipped. Very calm surroundings for a super relaxing couple of days with my family. Kids loved the living room with games and a vinyl record player. Nanci went the extra mile to answer our questions and make our stay even more comfortable. We enjoyed our time there and would definitely do it again.
Nanci was the perfect host from start to finish - she is so incredibly kind and was helpful with all my questions. The day of check in, I had some questions about the keypad and she responded within seconds. Her home is stunningly beautiful! I was in AWE of the house. Plenty of space to spread out and enjoy different rooms. The colorful rooms and appearance of the house made it that much more special. Nanci also had recommendations for the surrounding areas, some welcome snacks, and a ton of coffee which was unexpected, yet so so thoughtful. My friends and I were looking for a little cabin retreat and this house was perfect for it! The kitchen and dining area blend together on the second floor allowing for a lot of space to cook together and have dance parties while doing so - such a memorable visit and I recommend this place to everyone!
5 Minutes to the Hamlet of Highland; in a semi-rural area. While the house is near Rte 9, it is NOT right on Rte 9. You may hear some traffic around house and outside. Very few neighbors around and 2 acres of land.
