About the host
Hosted by anna gehrken
Hi there! I'm Anna and I've loved to play house my whole life! Perhaps this is why I had a wonderful career in the furniture industry. I love design, art, antiques and beautiful linens and this included monograms, a nod to my southern upbringing.
Why they chose this property
This cottage is a little unusual in that it's very private, yet very safe and right downtown!!! Once you arrive, you can enjoy a wonderful downtown Lewisburg experience just a few steps away. People often ask "how did you find this cute little spot"? The answer was that "it found me"! I went looking for a small house which we could use off season and where our son could stay while attending medical school. People loved this little "Doll house" and would knock on the door to inquire about staying here and,......as they say....the rest is history!!
What makes this property unique
As I've said already, this house is unique in many ways, but its privacy and location just can't be beat. It's like it's just a little Doll House is calling your name!
