This charmingly classic family home offers modern comfort in the quiet and

This spacious house blends classic craftsmanship, cozy living spaces, and

modern amenities like smart locks, WiFi security, and high-speed internet that

can easily accommodate up to 15 people steaming at once. Built in the graceful

mid-century era, this home features classic architectural touches and a clean,

functional layout that feels both nostalgic and beautifully timeless. The

floors and doors are crafted from real mid-century hardwood. The natural grain

patterns, warm honey tones, and solid construction adds warmth, character, and

the kind of craftsmanship that’s hard to find in newer homes. We’ve chosen

modern artwork that brings peaceful comfort to the classic architecture and

sturdiness of this home, featuring soft earth tones, nature-inspired pieces,

and gentle landscapes that naturally encourage the body to relax. Guests often

tell us the home feels peaceful the moment they walk in because of the

tranquil and welcoming atmosphere.







You’ll have the entire home to yourself, including two spacious upstairs

bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, multiple lounging areas, private

workspaces, a bright dining room, and a clean basement laundry room with a

bonus game/activity space. There’s also a comfortable sofa-bed option for

sleeping downstairs, as well as access to full bathrooms on each main floor.
