About this property
Historic Downtown Salem
Located near the intersection of Main St. and College Ave, our 1890 commercial building is a historic and unique place with a style all its own - featuring two top floor, 3-bedroom suites for 2-night minimum, weekly or long-term stays. Soft linens, fresh towels, complimentary coffee, comfortable king, queen and single size bed are just a few perks coming soon!
Walk to Roanoke College, Restaurants, shopping and brewery!
The space
Your suite is one of two located above street level retail on South College Ave - currently occupied by a Yoga studio and soon-to-be fly fishing shop. This 2-story, walk up home boasts high ceilings and hardwood floors throughout. The master suite includes a full bath and dedicated office with ample closet space. The 2nd bedroom contains a king size bed overlooking South College Ave and is connected to the smaller 3rd bedroom with a single bed. The gourmet kitchen features new appliances with trendy, epoxy counter tops and herring-bone style, subway tile backsplash, with exposed natural wood shelving.
Guest access
Guests will have the entire space. Typical of mixed-use buildings from the early 19th century, a recessed central entrance provides access to the second story residential dwellings (This is a secure entrance shared by both apartments and requires an electronic key code). The individual suites are also secured by electronic locks. You will receive both a code to the building and your individual apartment after booking. This is a second story walkup with stairs.
Other things to note
Home to Roanoke College, Salem is a small college town located in the beautiful Roanoke Valley. The stunning Alleghany and Blue Ridge Mountains surround Salem, providing a wealth of opportunities for outdoor recreation and nature appreciation. Residents and visitors can enjoy scenic drives along the Blue Ridge Parkway and gorgeous mountain and River views afforded by the nearby Appalachian Trail.
