About this property

Historic Gem in the Heart of Hilton Village on the James River

Welcome to family friendly, highly sought after, Historic Hilton Village on the James River in Newport News nestled between Williamsburg and Virginia Beach. You can walk to the James River beach & pier & delish restaurants such as Kismet, Circa 1918, & Indulge Bakery & Bistro in under 5 min as well as the Hilton Creamery. (No pets or smoking allowed.)

Located off of I-64 between Williamsburg & Virginia Beach, you can experience all the highlights of Hampton Roads from your centrally located spot.

The space:
Cozy, quaint, comfortable. Amazingly comfortable beds all on 2nd floor. 2 bedrooms have queen beds and the middle bedroom in between them as a twin bed. There is only 1 bathroom on the 2nd floor. The cozy living area makes it feel so homey. A well stocked kitchen with a Keurig, baking, cooking, and serving ware is sure to please. High speed WiFi available for all guests and a smart TV!

Guest access:
The full home and yard is available to guests. Please be courteous of my neighbors. No tents or camping allowed in the yard. No fireworks or parties allowed. The front porch is perfect for a morning cup of tea or coffee or an evening cocktail. This is a family friendly neighborhood and my neighbors' well being is VERY IMPORTANT TO ME!  Please be respectful of this and honor the quiet time of 10pm-6am.
Parking is available on the street in front of and side streets and is first come, first serve. ***If you are booking this with false information, plan on throwing a party, or are breaking the house rules of no excessive alcohol use, no drug use, or not honoring the quiet hours, THE POLICE WILL BE CALLED and you will be asked to leave and your money will not be refunded.***

Other things to note:
Historic Hilton Village was built for shipyard workers during World War I to help build ships. The homes situated within historic Hilton Village were built between 1918 to 1920 and the majority still have many original features including hardwood floors, clawfoot tubs (mine was removed before I bought it), original windows and slate roofs. When opening and closing doors and windows and coming and going please remember the age of the home. 

Rules:
Absolutely no smoking of any type on the property. There's a monitor and if smoke is detected there will be up to a $500 fine.
No parties of any type. Only guests registered through VRBO are allowed. Quiet hours are from 10pm-6am.
No pets allowed. ***DO NOT PARK IN THE DRIVEWAY TO THE RIGHT OF THE HOME. IT IS NOT MINE & OWNER WILL HAVE YOU TOWED.
