Charming restored historic home
Relax in a dog & kid-friendly restored 1901 farm house in Davis WV. Enjoy a charming, historic home in town, a 10 min. walk from restaurants, cafe, brewery, cocktail lounge, & hiking trails. Arrive earlier from DC/ other locations. There are nice views and good space for socializing. Enjoy the large table & bar. 5 minute drive to the Purple Fiddle & other amenities in Thomas, or to Blackwater Falls State Park. 15 min. drive to Canaan Valley. Some beds in common spaces; please read details. This is a charming, restored home that guests love and I love to share. Check in: 4pm or after. Check out: by 10:30am. Beds: There are two official bedrooms, two lofts in more common spaces with a queen- and full-size futon, as well as a pull-out couch and a couch that opens into a sleeper bed. There is a private porch room with a comfortable full size bed. It relies on an electric heater in the winter. So, again, that’s four beds, two futons and two sleeper couches, some in common areas but nicely tucked away. There are not five bedrooms, which is an Airbnb quirk. It's a 1500 sq ft house designed to fit a lot of people. It's cozy and traffic flow works. The idea is to have a guest house walking distance to social amenities. The beds are all super comfortable and the backyard is pleasant, with nice views over town. The main bedroom and bathroom afford nice views as well. The kitchen is modern and well equipped including with spices, oil, etc. the window above the oven let’s you enjoy the mountain view while cooking. Very dog and kid-friendly but please let me know in advance if you’re bringing dogs or children. If you have a dog or dogs I will ask for a $10 per dog fee for the entire stay. A/C and heat: the house has baseboard heaters with both upstairs and downstairs zones. There are several A/C wall units I ask you to turn off when not using those rooms. TV: There is a smart TV that allows you to login to your Netflix or other accounts. Almost all the light switches have dimmers. Winter: I will do my best to have the parking spaces shoveled if there is snow and will likely be able to do that for you though I cannot promise 100% I'm afraid. However there are a good snow shovel and salt on the porch. You generally do not need 4wd. The road is plowed by the town. If you are coming from points east of Davis, entering town on 7th street should be fine. If entering from downtown then you are better off going up 4th street than 3rd. The entire house and the backyard (but not the unfinished basement). Host sometimes stays in the cottage behind the backyard. On very rare occasions I may need to use a separate private entrance to access the basement but can message you if I have to do that. Jamie or I should be available to respond quickly. Davis is near hiking trails. There are a brewery, a coffee shop, a cocktail lounge, and restaurants within a short walk. The house has nice views over town. Town is walkable. Thomas is just a five minute drive. The valley is a 15 minute drive. Check out time is 10:30am, not 10 as the listing says. Check in after 4pm. There is a Nest system that tells me through an app the house temperature and if the fire alarm goes off. If the fire alarm goes off and I soon don’t see another alert that the smoke is clearing you may get a text from me checking in. I want to respect your privacy! The only camera is in the doorbell looking towards the front for security. This fire alarm alert is just to make sure guests are safe and my investment is intact.
