Charming Esmeralda

This house was so cute and clean and full of character. My daughter and I visited Geneva for a state sporting competition at the Spire. The house was situated close to everything we needed. Jan took such good care of us, it was as if she was an old friend. The house was well beyond expectations and wished I could have enjoyed it on a longer stay. Maybe next time!

Immaculate Bungalow

Ezmeralda's is an immaculate, beautifully maintained and super clean property. The decor is so charming! Jan is a wonderful host who checked to see if everything was ok and to see if I needed anything during my stay. The bungalow is well supplied and has everything you could need including internet, plenty of plugs, mirrors, games, blankets, kitchen supplies and bathroom amenities. The backyard is large with lovely landscaping and lighting. The Wine Shed is a must see/use with candles, firewood, comfortable seating and a serene wooded view. Be sure to check out all the owner photos to see everything the property offers. Highly recommend!!

SLICE OF HEAVEN

We have stayed here several times and each time we walk through the door it is like coming home. Jan & Joe have made such a beautiful getaway spot that you can literally feel the stress melt away. On this trip even with the cold and rainy weather we still managed to sit by candle light out in the wine shack and have a beautiful evening. Thak you for this little slice of heaven.

About the host

Hosted by Jan D'Angelo ` Owner

My hometown is Latrobe, Pennsylvania. I moved to this area in 1980 with the intent of staying a few years and here it is, I am still here. My passions include; gardening, pets, wildlife, nature and its beauty, the great outdoors, antiquing, interior decorating, self taught acrylics painting, flea markets and the list goes on! I am most content at home tending to my home, gardens and enjoying what Mother Nature offers on a daily basis!! I purchased this 1920's bungalow in 2010. It was due for demolition with the city. I purchased this property with the same intent, demo and simply expand the footage of my yard. Once inside and exploring, the foundation was solid. My plans for demo changed to renovation. The renovation of this bungalow became a labor of love. Keeping to the original build of the 1920's, renovation took a little over 2 years due to my work schedule. My companion, Joe Marte, was very instrumental as well renovating this property. Sharing Ezmeralda's with guests is a dream come true! Ah, the name...Ezmeralda's. Let me tell you, very simply. Ezmeralda is the nickname given to me by my beloved Mom. It only seemed right. I'm sure she would have approved!

Why they chose this property

I purchased this property in 2010. Living next door, I remember always wishing that I would love to be its owner. Although fairly neglected in the 20+ years of living next door to this property, I could see "her" potential. When it became available in 2010, I was elated. It took approximately one year to "close the deal" and in the end , everything worked in my favor and I became the owner of "the blue house on Sherman", now known as... Ezmeralda's. This bungalow gave me the opportunity to channel my creativity and indulge in my passion for vintage finds, antiques, flipping flea market treasures and putting it all together ! It is whimsical and you can sense a light touch of magic in the air. My passion for decorating comes naturally, just like breathing! It's in there, lol! Come, you will love what you see!

What makes this property unique

Although this property is located in the city and just minutes away from the many attractions in this area, Ezmeralda's offers a very private, rural setting. Enclosed on 3+ acres, the wooded area in the back of the property is breathtaking. An out building, know as "The Wine Shack" overlooks the ravine. The name says it all ... sipping a glass of wine. Listen to the birds and their songs. Watch the squirrels and their silly antics when they notice your presence! Take notice of the softly blowing wildflowers. Stroll woodland pathways. What did you discover? Truly a unique setting on this property! The Wine Shack includes outdoor furniture, a picnic table and use of the fire pit. Once crossing the ravine, the property offers a wooded area with walking trails throughout. Just outside the back door is the garden shed. A unique building in itself to lounge or if you want, grab some tools and head for the gardens! Do some bird watching from this building as bird feeders enhance the gardens nearby. During early evening, from the garden shed, delight in the antics of the wildlife feeding from the bird feeders as well. They are sure to make you laugh! A patio table and chairs are located in this area along with a gas grill / utensils for your use. Come... you are going to enjoy this bungalow and all that it has to offer.
