The primary bedroom features a queen bed with a Sterns and Foster mattress, white noise and charging stations on each nightstand, luggage valet, and a restored 1930s medical cabinet for personal items if needed. Its accompanying en-suite offers a vintage-style tub with an overhead rain shower, dual vanity areas, and ample storage for all your travel essentials.

The second bedroom offers a full-size daybed with a twin trundle, white noise and charging station, luggage valet, dresser, and custom-built closet for storage and/or hanging items.

Sitting on the front porch, guests can capture views of Monticello's iconic courthouse cupola, views the the 1890 Perkins Opera House, and the Monticello's Old Jail.

Parking for one vehicle under the attached carport is easily
accessible, and street parking is typically readily available.

Sweet spot in a great location

We stayed here for two nights to visit our daughter and grandson. It’s a great home. It’s very clean and the location can’t be beat-easy walk or a very short drive to several nice restaurants. The home is well equipped with a full kitchen and comfy living and bedrooms. Check in and check out was easy. We’ll definitely be back!
