About this property

Downtown Spacious 5BR and Game Room

Summary:

The Purple Palace is one of Ellicottville’s most centrally located rentals—a spacious 5-bedroom Victorian home just steps from the four corners, featuring a full game room with ping pong, a private fire pit, and space for up to 10 guests. Historic character, modern comfort, and zero driving required.



The Space:

With five bedrooms and the full run of a stately Victorian home, The Purple Palace comfortably sleeps up to 10. Five bathrooms mean no waiting—ideal for larger groups getting ready for the slopes, golf, or a night out.

Historic charm meets modern comfort with updated appliances, fast Wi-Fi, and A/C throughout. An upper bedroom includes a private kitchenette with mini fridge, and multiple fridges on the main floor make food storage easy for larger groups.

Ideal for golf weekends, ski trips, and family gatherings—all within a 2-minute walk of downtown. Park your car when you arrive—you won’t need it.



Guest Access:

Guests have full access to the home, including all 5 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, living spaces, kitchen, game room, and outdoor areas. Enjoy the BBQ grill, fire pit, and dedicated on-site parking. Access is simple and secure via a keypad at the private side entrance.



The Neighborhood:

Steps from the iconic four corners (Washington & Jefferson), The Purple Palace puts you at the center of everything Ellicottville has to offer—tucked on a quiet residential street, yet seconds from the action. Holiday Valley and Holimont are both less than a mile away.

After a day on the slopes or the golf course, walk to The Gin Mill for a pint or Dina’s for dinner. Summer or winter, everything is right outside your door—while still offering a more relaxed residential setting to come home to.



Getting Around:

Free parking on-site and street parking available. Arriving by air? Buffalo Niagara International (BUF) is about 1.5 hours away. A car is recommended for day trips—Seneca Allegany Casino is 15 minutes, Allegany State Park about 30.



Other Things to Note:

For security and property protection, there are exterior cameras covering the parking area, as well as a noise monitoring device that measures decibel levels (not conversations). These help ensure a safe and respectful environment for guests and neighbors.



The home includes a separate, private owner’s suite on the top floor. It has its own entrance and is fully self-contained, with no shared interior spaces. Guests have exclusive use of all areas shown in the listing, including their own private entrance, parking, and outdoor spaces.



An instruction booklet on-site covers the home’s amenities and local recommendations in detail.
