About this property

Hidden Gem: Serene 1-BR Waterside Loft w/ Resort Comforts

Your Norwich adventure begins at this perfect air conditioned 1-bedroom waterside loft apartment. Escape to a tranquil haven in my charming second floor carriage house loft. This retreat offers a perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comforts, ideal for both individuals or couples seeking a peaceful getaway.

The loft features a spacious open plan layout, with numerous amenities. Stroll down to the water or just relax on your private covered deck. Lakefront or on your veranda, you’ll have a bird’s eye view of the wonderful sites & relaxing sounds!

P.S., don’t miss the sunsets!

This lakefront retreat offers the entire second floor of the carriage house, a spacious 530 ft.² apartment. Enjoy a private entrance leading to a relaxing sitting room, beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully furnished.

The entrance sitting room leads to an open loft space, that features a spacious and airy layout. The loft seamlessly combines yet another cozy sitting area, a romantic queen bed space, an attentively arranged eating nook, and a complete kitchenette.

The focal point is the comfortable queen-sized bed with plush linens, inviting you to drift off to sleep. The nearby cozy armchair & table provide a perfect spot to unwind with a good book or enjoy a cup of coffee. End tables, touch lights w/USB, bed bench, a dresser & large closet round out the bedroom furnishings. A window air conditioner is located seasonally in this bedroom loft area.

You’ll find everything you need in the well appointed efficiency kitchen and dining space. A 30 inch round table with two chairs, an electric stove, refrigerator/freezer, large sink, microwave, toaster, Keurig, french press and other amenities. I’ve stocked the kitchen with all necessary dishes, cookware, and utensils along with starter food supplies, spices, coffee pods, assorted teas and essential paper products, ensuring you a seamless stay.

Steps from the kitchen, the bathroom provides a refreshing walk-in shower, and thoughtful amenities, including shampoo, conditioner, soaps, lotions, hairdryer, flat iron, and soft, fluffy towels.

Step directly from your loft bedroom onto your private, beautifully decorated covered deck (16’ x 4’). Cushioned seating, a side table, and a bistro set complete the perfect spot to unwind and soak in the tranquil garden lakefront views, complete with birdsong and the gentle sounds of water from the fountain below.

In the summer months, delight in the abundance and use of fresh herbs from our nearby raised bed and seasonal vegetables cultivated right on the dock.

Nestled in a peaceful waterfront community, this carriage house offers a tranquil escape from your stress, and the normal hustle and bustle. Conveniently located, explore nearby towns, colleges, museums, concert events, farmer’s markets, and nature trails. Enjoy water activities or just simply relax on the dock or deck, and soak up the serene atmosphere.

P.S., from either your private deck or the dock, don’t miss the amazing views & sunsets!!!

Guests have a private front entrance to their apartment. They will have *shared access to the grounds, waterfront, dock, firepit, kayaks, and motored paddle boat.

* My Carriage House has only two apartments, & they are both double occupancy only. I ask that guests limit additional daytime guests to only two, so that all guests may enjoy the amenities & serenity at Robyn’s Nest! Note: All pictures included of Robyn’s Nest are untouched & non AI generated.

Thank you for choosing Robyn’s Nest & for your lovely review! A stay away from home should be ‘easy’! ‘Clean & well kept’ should be givens, but are not always delivered when renting . I’m ecstatic that you found it all here! Sure hope you’re able to find your way back to the Nest!!! Safe travels!

Retired in 2019, I now own this lovely home & 2 apartment carriage house on the water in Central NY. After extensive remodeling, along with continued landscaping activities, I now share this lovely space with guests like you!! It’s been a labor of love that is just too special to keep to myself!

Why they chose this property

I enjoy the water’s peacefulness & nature’s beauty that surrounds this property. Cardinals, hummingbirds, eagles, geese, bunnies; you’ll enjoy wildlife up close & personal! Take a kayak out on the calm waters (great for beginners), or just sit on the dock… water is healing to the soul!

What makes this property unique

Guests rave about the apartment cleanliness, the attention to detail, & how comfortable it is. However, what I believe truly sets my accommodations apart from the rest, is the beauty & quietness of the property. You can book just any room - anywhere. But Robyn’s Nest truly offers you more than just a room.

Whether you’re in the area for an event or just in need of some quick R&R, Robyn’s Nest can provide you with a memorable stay that exceeds your expectations!
