The Banks House, Upscale 3BD/3BA Home,10 Min Walk to World Class Downtown Napa
CITY OF NAPA LICENSED VACATION RENTAL: VR17-0081
Come and enjoy all that Napa has to offer at The Banks House. This beautiful Victorian home is located next to downtown Napa on First Street. It is listed in the Napa historic register and is elegantly nestled among other Victorian homes designed by one of Napa Valley’s renowned architects, Luther Turton, in the 1890s. In 2018 the house was extensively remodeled, creating an updated light filled home, which includes all the modern amenities while retaining its original Napa Victorian charm.
The Banks House provides an ideal base for your Napa visit. It is a short (10 minute) pleasant walk into downtown Napa and its acclaimed restaurants, wine tasting rooms, theaters, entertainment and shops. The house is a convenient two minute drive from Highway 29, providing access to the Up Valley Napa towns and wineries.
The Banks House has two bedrooms, each with a king size bed, and two new full bathrooms located on the upper level, and downstairs is a new large suite. The house can accommodate 6 overnight guests.
The home’s upper level provides a light filled open floor plan with distinctive Victorian era high ceilings, providing a wonderful setting for your group to enjoy time together. As you move through the seamlessly free-flowing layout that connects the living room, dining room and kitchen, you will enjoy sweeping views of the backyard garden and barn. The new kitchen and all new bathrooms feature white subway tile, stone countertops, state of the art appliances, sparkling new fixtures, gleaming hardwood floors and porcelain/marble floor tile.
The butler's pantry off the kitchen offers a wine refrigerator and another sink, which will be the hub of your wine tasting entertaining. The dining room and living room are invitingly furnished with plush, comfortable sofas, flat screen TV and a spacious farmhouse dining table, where you will gather for meals and conversation. For your comfort, the air conditioning and heating systems have two zones (upper level and lower level) to keep the home temperate.
Downstairs, you will enter through a rustic barn door, and find a large suite, which includes a living room with desk, flat screen TV and inviting sofa and swivel chairs, a king size bed and an adjoining bathroom with a beautiful farmhouse vanity with dual vessel sinks and a spacious shower with glass door.
Step out to the yard, and you will find yourself in an oasis: olive trees, lavender, trumpet vines, camellias and roses. At the far end, marvel at the historic barn next to the cozy al-fresco picnic table, where you will dine in complete shade. Hone your skills on the bocce court while being cheered by your family and friends as they sit alongside the bocce ball court. The garden lights create a magical, romantic setting in the evening. The Banks House will indulge you with an authentic and memorable Wine Country experience.

This property is absolutely perfect for a trip to Napa! It is beautifully decorated and was the perfect space for our group (3 couples). Elizabeth was so kind and helpful with her local recommendations. Our only regret is that our trip was too short! If you are looking for a beautiful home in Napa that is convenient to everything, you will be so happy here. We hope to return soon!

The Banks House accommodations were outstanding and worth every penny. The laundry setup was impressive and easy to use, more than we needed. The open floor plan suited togetherness yet had a quaint way of also allowing separate private conversations. The remodeling touches and thoughtful amenities facilitated an escape from our daily grinds & health challenges into relaxation, release and restoration. The Banks House provided easy access to every excursion we chose to experience, no more than 30-35 minute drive to the most amazing winery adventures. Highly recommend this property and would definitely consider staying again!!

Perfect!
We had a wonderful stay this past weekend! Perfect location and beautiful home. So wonderfully decorated, warm, cozy and a short walk to downtown Napa. The bedrooms, bathrooms and downstairs suite are exactly as pictured, but they do not do justice for the actual ambiance once you arrive. Every appliance and amenity you could possibly need are located in the rental. This was a perfect stay for our group of 4 ladies. We would highly recommend this property!

Don’t miss the opportunity to book The Banks House! Our group of four adults had a wonderful experience staying for a week in this beautifully renovated and exquisitely decorated home. Our host, Elizabeth, was very responsive and exceeded our expectations with any request we had. We were grateful for her wine country recommendations and appreciated her kindness and effort to make sure that our stay was perfect. This home is equipped with every kitchen tool and appliance you could possibly need including a wine fridge, three types of coffee makers, as well as a tea kettle, spices on hand, a Brita pitcher in the fridge for filtered water, and all the dishes, glassware and cooking utensils you’ll need. This home has so many great amenities such as two sets of washers and dryers in a large laundry room with iron, ironing board, clothes steamer, etc., a cooler for your wine country picnics, board games, a beautifully lit backyard with a bocce ball court, high quality linens, and comfortable seating and king sized beds in all three rooms.Within a 10-15 minute walk, we enjoyed restaurants, shops, and tasting rooms in downtown Napa. The old homes in this area are so charming with their ornate architecture and colorful flower gardens. We look forward to staying here again and will recommend it to all our friends. Thank you, Elizabeth!

We enjoyed cooking in one night and playing bocce one afternoon. We were able to relax when there, but also enjoy walking to town for restaurants and shopping. Would love to visit again and highly recommend.
