The Artist's Sweet Spot

This is the smallest of 4 apartments in a beautifully restored, turn of the century home that was turned into apartments in the 1920s. Three huge sycamore trees surround the house. The fully fenced back yard is a nature retreat complete with pond and sometimes frogs. Large decks surround the back of the house with each tenant having their own share of deck and a BBQ. Everything has been thought of to make your stay as easy as being home but also special and different. Owner :)nga 1 block away from the town natural food store.,7 blocks from the town square, a pleasant quiet neighborhood. Easy peasey.... Half way between the town square and the university. One block down a country lane feeling alley to the grocery store. Easiest location. Free bikes for getting around or enjoying the 17 mile bike loop around Fairfield.
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a separate bedroom. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a stovetop. Housekeeping is available on request.

Stylish refuge

This apartment was cozy, safe, comfortable and had excellent style. A beautiful deck to watch the sunset, a cute kitchen with everything you need, and a bohemian design overall that was very well curated. It was a wonderful place to stay during my time in Fairfield — I was able to relax in comfort, undisturbed. The house is old and the other guests/tenants did make some noise but it was minimal and not a problem. There was a sweet kitty who visited me when I was on the deck. Quiet block near Lake Pleasant, where I like to walk. Highly recommend!

Place was very clean and well kept. Kitchen was stocked with spices and utensils to cook a whole meal! We would definitely stay here again. :)
