The main floor opens into a bright, character-filled living room with an olive velvet sofa, two black accent chairs, a round coffee table, and a wall-mounted flat-screen TV. The bold botanical wallpaper accent wall and sputnik chandelier give the space a distinct personality without sacrificing comfort. The living room flows directly into the dining area, where a six-seat wood table with teal velvet chairs sits beneath a starburst crystal pendant light. The kitchen is fully equipped with stainless steel appliances, butcher block countertops, a side-by-side refrigerator, and a breakfast bar with barstool seating. A small office nook off the main living area provides a desk and chair for guests who need a place to work. Both main floor bedrooms offer a restful night's sleep. The first features a queen bed set against dark painted walls with a floral wallpaper accent wall, a gold-framed arched floor mirror, and a globe nightstand lamp. The second queen room carries a softer feel with grey-blue bedding, a botanical print lampshade, and purple accent pillows. The main floor full bathroom includes a tub/shower combo with a striped curtain, a white vanity with a black faucet, and decorative fern art. A dedicated laundry room with a stacked full-size washer and dryer is also on this floor. Upstairs, the third bedroom sleeps two with black metal twin beds set under a sloped ceiling with a green accent wall, textured ceiling wallpaper, and track lighting. A compact full bathroom on the top floor features lavender walls, a white vanity with a black faucet, and a round mirror, toilet, and vanity in separate areas under the sloped ceiling. Outside, the covered front porch has two wicker chairs and a side table, a quiet spot to start the morning. The back deck steps down to the backyard, where four navy Adirondack chairs surround a steel fire pit on a gravel pad. A wood picnic table, gas grill, and string lights complete the outdoor setup. The detached garage is accessible from the rear of the property. Other things to note PETS We allow up to 3 dogs for $90 per pet per stay.
