THE SPACE
This home truly combines downtown living with a nature retreat. Nestled in the trees just across from the river, you'll forget you're in the city until you walk to dinner.

Enter through the downstairs foyer into the bright open-concept living, dining, and smartly designed kitchen. The kitchen is stocked with plenty of supplies for the at home chef.

Listen to a favorite tune on the record player or watch a show on the 70" smart tv while you cook. There's plenty of room to entertain or eat around the dining table that seats six!

Don't miss the convenient half bath located on this floor.

Upstairs, you'll find the primary bedroom with a king-sized bed, reading nook, and en-suite bath. Step outside onto the wraparound porch through one of two sets of french doors to take in seasonal river views.

Settle into the connecting sitting room with comfortable seating, including a queen-sized pull-out couch. With gas fireplaces both upstairs and downstairs, the only question is, "where do you want to unwind?"

Please note that there is no door between the primary bedroom and the sitting room, and the suite closes off at the hallway.

Off the hallway is a bright second bedroom with a welcoming queen-sized bed, large windows, and a walk-in closet. A second full bath with tub and a laundry room with washer & dryer complete the upstairs.

There's no end to the outdoor options! Enjoy s'mores around the backyard fire pit, eat breakfast on the open air patio, or cozy up with a book from our shelves on the swing just outside the New Orleans style doors that open onto the wraparound porch. The backyard can be accessed through the laundry room, sitting room, or primary bedroom and is on the upstairs level of the home.

Conveniently, the road widens directly across the street from the house, creating a perfect nook for 2-3 cars to easily park on the street.

OTHER THINGS TO NOTE:
✦ Built in the 1900s, this historic home retains many of its original features, offering a unique and nostalgic experience. Please note that due to the home's age, there are a few step-downs and some older interior doors that do not have locks. We hope you enjoy the character and charm of this classic property!
✦ This is a downtown neighborhood and comes with all the conveniences and quirks that go along with that.
✦ You can easily walk to a favorite deli and Mexican restaurant just around the corner, or to Rome's Historic Broad Street restaurants and shops in under a mile. (We provide a list of our faves!)
✦ You may hear the downtown clock tower strike each hour (ending at 10:00pm) and will likely hear the train from time to time. The bedrooms are equipped with sound machines to ensure noise isn't a concern.
✦ If you're a Stranger Things fan, be sure to check out the Creel house just a couple blocks away (currently filming now!)
✦ And if you're a history buff, you'll love knowing that this home was truly the original carriage house for the large blue home next door.
