About this property

Professional cottage on 1/2 acre lot in quiet country setting

This is a newly renovated, cozy, yet professional cottage situated on a 1/2 acre lot in a quiet, safe neighborhood. It is centrally located with great access to downtown St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Dunedin, & Tampa. Tampa International Airport is 17 miles away, & the beaches of Clearwater & St. Petersburg are even closer than that!

This cottage is fully furnished with a leather sofa, love-seat, futon, & chairs. There are 2 bedrooms, each with a queen bed. The 2 bathrooms have showers & one has a bathtub. The kitchen is fully furnished with a full refrigerator & freezer, electric stove with oven, microwave oven, dishwasher, coffee-maker, toaster, blender, pots, & even Lenox china. There is a tea box with teas & coffee from Hawaii (Lion Coffee). Central air & heat as well as ceiling fans create a comfortable environment regardless of the outside temperature.

The full-size stackable washer & dryer is in the back of the cottage so laundry can easily be done (if needed) while relaxing, cooking, or doing desk work.

The den has a 55 inch Roku TV, & a professional desk where one can comfortably perform work duties while enjoying TV or Pandora music, & of course there is high speed WiFi included as well. The Master bedroom also has a Roku TV as well.

Between the detached garage & the cottage is a large patio area where one can rest in tranquility near a garden area with cane reeds which provide privacy from the neighbors. A large patio table with 6 chairs is set up in this sunny area. If you prefer, there is a small sitting area under the front porch.

Loved this property! It was the perfect location for our work training. It was centralized and easy to access restaurants and other shopping in the area. It was cozy and clean and the host was easy to communicate with. We hope to stay again on our next work trip.

About the host

Hosted by Gigi Lefebvre

Host profile image
I am a Family Practice physician who came to the St. Petersburg area in 1987 from Louisiana to do my residency training. I have lived at my home (which is the second house to the east of the rental cottage) since 1991, & I thoroughly enjoy the area which is unique in that the neighborhood has a rural feel yet it is located in the middle of Pinellas County which is certainly no longer rural. The county has a population of 900,000+, & its county seat is Clearwater, yet St. Petersburg is it's largest city., When my neighbors decided to relocate to New York in 2015, I chose to purchase & renovate their home so I could share this unique property with professionals & visitors in general who might not know that acreage still exists in the St. Pete area!

Why they chose this property

I work with many professionals in the medical industry, & often times they travel to our area for business. Most times they stay in a hotel, which lacks the feel of home. Chalet le Bon Temps is a newly renovated 2BR/2 bath cottage which is fully furnished to make the traveler feel he is at "home." Things like a recliner, a full kitchen, windows with top down-bottom up blinds, & an actual yard with birds & squirrels create a sense of familiarity & relaxation not commonly found at our local hotels or condos.
