Sunny Westport Studio Apt. Above Historic Mill
Historic Charm Meets Modern Comfort: A Unique Studio Retreat
Nestled atop a beautifully restored 19th-century Cider Mill, this sun-drenched studio apartment offers a one-of-a-kind experience for history enthusiasts, business travelers, and lovers of unique design. Combining timeless character with modern amenities, this retreat offers breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape, including a picturesque stream, serene meadows, and a diverse array of local wildlife, from mallards and egrets to elegant swans. Although conveniently located just moments from Southport Village, the tranquil setting feels like a world away from the everyday hustle.
Historic Elegance & Thoughtful Design
Step inside and be captivated by the rich history of this space. Original hardwood floors, exposed wooden beams, and carefully curated furnishings blend seamlessly to honor the building’s storied past while providing modern comfort. Multiple windows and skylights flood the apartment with natural light, creating an open, airy ambiance. Enjoy stunning views of Sasco Brook as you relax in this thoughtfully designed space.
Business Traveler’s Haven
For those traveling on business, we offer the perfect work-life balance. High-speed Wi-Fi and a dedicated workspace ensure productivity, while our exclusive partnership with B@Work Co-Working provides 24/7 access to a state-of-the-art, multi-level workspace overlooking a waterfall—just downstairs from your rental. Whether you need a quiet place for meetings or a creative environment for brainstorming, this feature makes your stay seamless and efficient.
