A note on ambiance: It is a quiet neighborhood albeit connected to a very busy tourist town. You will hear people, cars, the cannon fire at the fort, church chimes and the occasional trolley in the daytime. This includes the Firestone during their regular hours. *Off street parking is provided for one small to mid sized vehicle. Full sized trucks and SUVs will have to use free public on street parking. PARKING NOTE: There is only one onsite parking available, but ample free street parking. You may have to walk around the corner or down the street to the suite, so if you are not mobile or have multiple vehicles this needs to be considered prior to booking.
Enter through private gate next main house and walk through a shared garden to get to the glass doors (the carriage house). Please park in front of the private blue gate. Other vehicles can park after the stop sign on Locust without yellow curbs.
The Safe Haven House lives behind our Hide-Out property (The main house) and is very private. Originally the carriage house for the property, it was renovated by the previous owners into a painting studio & apartment. One private parking available in front of private gate and free street parking available after stop sign when turning onto property street. Downstairs sitting area with full kitchen and lovely decor. Upstairs is the queen bed with en suite bath: shower and sink are separated from the bedroom by a curtain; the toilet is behind in its own closed room. We love this space for the light and artistic romance of it; one of its most delightful aspects is the access to the outdoors. Step out the back door and you will find yourself in a very serene, very private walled garden. Have your morning coffee on the upstairs deck that overlooks the shared garden or toast and cereal in the private garden with gorgeous angles of sunlight in the early morning. Take a walk a couple blocks east and you are on the intracoastal waterway. Life is cozy and relaxed here. A note on ambiance: It is a quiet neighborhood albeit connected to a very busy tourist town.
