Full of light. Many windows and patio doors that brought light into the living area. The bedrooms had full length black-out drapes, creating a pleasant sleeping area. The high ceilings throughout the house added to the general sense of light and airy and expansive spaces. Cream walls and furniture mixed with antique pieces added to the charm. Access to the generous patio was easy ... the property has an actual off-street parking area for your vehicle ... the kitchen was cute as could be and had every convenience and then some. A great window over the sink letting in even more light. We loved our time here and highly recommend the property AND the excellent location of it.

Phil et al. Such a kind review and expect you to come again for a longer more relaxed visit. Hope the Puppy enjoyed too. As a 65 year old I built the house myself(myself and hand-crane) up to the roof line, then I got the pros in. I’m 84 now and couldn’t do it. Lucky me, I get to go again on Sunday🙂

The host was quite welcoming! We loved this place but the only drawback was that we thought it a bit overpriced compared to other places we stayed for three nights. It was quite comfortable and we loved the view and the hot tub. We probably wouldn't book it again unless the price was lower though.

Wonderful home in Bisbee! My husband and I enjoyed the walkability and the hot tub to relax in after coming back up the hill. The patio area is lovely; I was out there every morning and evening. Comfy beds, fully equipped kitchen, and everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Cedric is a great host - no lists of rules - just helpful signs for locking doors and windows. I hope to return!

Dear Peggy, Thank you so much for your kind review. When I designed the house I specifically required that there were two separate wings, so you didn't have to bump into anyone on your way to the "Loo" in the middle of the night! (Excuse Brit English!) Cedric

This is our 2nd time staying here, and other friends have stayed here previously. It's on the short list of places we like to stay in Bisbee. Perfect location - 5 minute walk to almost anything in town. Nicely furnished. Great patio, and sliding doors bring the outdoors in. Parking is great, too. We will be staying again!

Why they chose this property

My Welsh grandfather was a miner in region and I fell in-love with town when I first visited in 1980. I've had vacation homes in this town for 40 years and love it because of it history, weather and physical beauty. The town is nestled in a valley of the Mule mountains. It's a liberal oasis in a generally conservative area

What makes this property unique

My house special as it is recently constructed while following classic design and features. It is in middle of town. Great area for biking, hiking, birding, hanging out in local restaurants and bars. Enjoy the artist galleries. Bisbee is the friendliest of towns with active social scene.
