About this property
Comfy 2-bedroom plus loft historic building renovated, convenient to everything
Experience Charlottesville like a local in this fully renovated 5,000 sq. ft. building. Original structure built in the same year (1805) that British Admiral Horatio Nelson led the British fleet against the French navy at Trafalgar. Guests have private, secure access to the top floor, a fully equipped unit with additional 'getaway' loft room for another bed or reading or secluded office space .... or ..... The booked space (the entire second floor) offers 1 queen bed and 1 'full size' futon, plus 2 single cots if necessary perfect for a single, couple or small family. Enjoy the peaceful atmosphere and brilliant decor throughout. With 2 bathrooms (one full and one half with a third half bath available) and an additional office space with a single bed, this rental provides all the comforts you need. Feel free to reach out during your stay - happy to suggest local spots to check out. Owner is 45 year resident and knows all the stories; house has the history (original builder, John Jordan, built this house before finishing the construction of Thomas Jefferson's Monticello).
Entrance is off the free parking on West side of building; you enter through a 'mini museum' featuring a look at the original features of a grand house built in the time of Jefferson and Madison.
Management is on site and available at a moment's notice.
Please contact Owner to ensure this unique property has what you are looking for.
