Sweet Wedding

We used the property for 2 nights to hold a small wedding (with the owner’s permission). Everything was wonderful. So much gorgeous restored wood set a very romantic Victorian feel. 4 large, comfortable, master painter themed bedrooms with 2 convenient full bathrooms on the second floor. Especially appreciated the owner leaving welcome items for things we forgot. What a beautiful historical property that was the perfect backdrop for lasting memories!
Incredible, romantic staircase
An inviting entrance and off street parking
Relaxing private deck and herb garden
Front porch that was great to enjoy the quiet neighborhood
