About this property
Pet Friendly in Seaside, Renovated & Easy Walk to Beach & Pools + 2 Bikes!
From the early 1990s, renowned Seaside architect Richard Gibbs’ two-bedroom Charleston-style cottage has been a beloved retreat, attracting repeat guests with its serene location on Forest Street. The cottage showcases a distinctive deep porch, or “dogtrot” design, with a spacious, full-length screened breezeway that connects the two private downstairs bedrooms to the kitchen, dining, and living areas upstairs. In February 2023, the cottage underwent a full renovation, including a new air conditioning system, ceiling fans throughout, and updated laundry appliances.
The street-facing entry opens to a screened porch that leads directly to two mirrored bedrooms, each featuring a platform queen bed, new storage drawers, dimmable indirect uplighting, a large shuttered window, and a smart TV. Each bedroom has a private ensuite bath with a walk-in shower featuring a frameless glass door and rain shower head, a new marble vanity, a backlit vanity mirror, and heated floors. An outdoor shower is conveniently located off the entry-level porch.
Up an easy staircase, the second floor offers an open-concept kitchen, dining, and living space, as well as a full-length screened porch and Juliette balcony. The gourmet kitchen is equipped with premium stainless-steel appliances, including a Wolf oven and gas cooktop, Sub-Zero fridge/freezer, and Asko dishwasher. A spacious new pantry and separate broom closet provide added convenience, while the newly renovated dining area features a trestle table, benches, and chairs. Above the dining table, a striking chandelier hangs from the soaring 13-foot ceiling. The living area, which seamlessly flows into the dining space, is furnished with a comfortable new sofa, swivel chairs, and a 50" Frame TV. A newly wallpapered powder room is located nearby. The upper screened porch is perfect for morning coffee, featuring a table and chairs as well as a classic bench with an upholstered cushion.
The backyard features a timber deck with a gas barbecue, outdoor dining table, and picket fencing, creating a perfect spot for relaxing after a day at the beach. Seaside’s shops and dining are just steps away, offering the best of coastal living.
Little Lodge is also pet-friendly, welcoming your four-legged family members. Whether your furry friend is a small companion or a larger breed, they’ll feel right at home here. Seaside’s village amenities, including the grocery store, post office, and bookstore, offer water bowls and tie-downs for visiting pets. A pet cleaning supplement will be included in your booking fee.
