As you enter the living room, we offer original heart pine floors that are restored (and we love them so please remove your shoes!), comfy leather furniture for hanging out with family, a plush rug, a tv with Roku for simple streaming, board games, and don't forget to check out our custom Guidebook, restoration before and after photo album, and our FAQ binder found on the foyer table, along with a custom postcard you can send to your family during your trip to Staunton. All of the art throughout the home are custom framed photos, maps, and historic photos of Staunton. In the front bedroom off of the living room, there is a queen sized bed with hotel quality bedding and fluffy duvet cover for chilly nights. Also in this front bedroom is a full sized antique dresser for clothing storage, bedside table with lamp equipped for phone charging, a trunk full of throw blankets if needed, a closet with coat hangers, an iron, and ironing board. Also, a tv is in this room with Roku remote for easy streaming. Off of the living room is the bright white kitchen with dark granite countertops and open shelving, stainless steel appliances, pots and pans, cooking utensils and silverware, a baking sheet, Tupperware, a fire extinguisher, olive oil, salt and pepper, a Keurig coffeemaker, glassware including coffee mugs, cups, and wine glasses (perfect for Yelping Dog wine!), a toaster, a microwave, and airbnb sized refrigerator. With ever guest, we provide a tray of grab and go goodies for when you first arrive with Bigelow tea bags, Pike Place Keurig cups, creamers, nuts, and Kind bars for each guest.

Can you see the view of downtown Staunton from the window?

At the bottom of the stairs is the private seating area for the master suite with its very own matching comfy chairs, lamp for phone charging, and electric fireplace for cold evenings and a cozy place to read a book or have an evening chat with someone you love. The downstairs bedroom is what we would consider the private master suite with a locking barn door, queen bed with hotel quality bedding and a fluffy duvet, a bedside table with lamp equipped for phone charging, a 32 inch wall-mounted tv with Roku for easy streaming, and an antique armoire with dowel rod for clothing hanging and custom storage shelves, and a basket full of soft throw blankets. Off of the master bedroom is the exterior door to the back deck. The back deck has a view of all of downtown Staunton and twinkle lights strewn all the way across the deck. Outdoor seating and a table is also provided if you want to take any meals on the back deck.
