About this property
Newly renovated home near Seawall beach, tons of natural light!
Let your relaxation begin at The Lighthouse! Perfect for a girls' weekend or family getaway, we are within walking distance of the Seawall, beach, restaurants, bike rentals and more! Built in 1924, our lovely home features original hardwood floors and large windows for incredible natural light. Our kitchen is well stocked for cooking, where you'll find new appliances, toaster, blender, hand mixer, coffee maker, and all of the tools you need to enjoy a relaxing meal at home after your island fun. When you finally give in to the day's end, tuck yourself into the gorgeous fourposter queen-sized Rice Bed in the front bedroom, where you'll find a TV hidden in the wardrobe. The second bedroom has two comfortable twin beds with cubbies of games and books for the kids and family. There is even a pack n play for your little one! The bedroom windows have black out shades for late morning snoozing. The living room sofa pulls out to a queen sized bed for extra sleeping space. We have a full-sized washer and dryer for your use. You'll find a patio table and chairs in the fenced back yard to enjoy the sea breezes with your morning cup of coffee or evening cocktails. Enjoy the convenience of a 3-car private driveway bordered by beautiful flowering vines. This home is a top/bottom duplex, with the rental unit upstairs. Owners are not present during your stay, so you'll have privacy in the home and yard. We look forward to sharing our island retreat with you!
