With its blend of 19th-century charm and modern comforts, it offers everything needed for a memorable family vacation. Step into the cozy living room where you can relax and enjoy some downtime, or gather around the formal dining table to share meals and stories. The kitchen is fully stocked with all the appliances you need to make cooking together easy and fun—whether it's a big family dinner or a quick breakfast before heading out for the day. Upstairs, you'll find bedrooms designed with families in mind, including a playful room just for kids. The children's room features fun decorations and soft, comfortable bedding, making it an ideal space for them to sleep, play, and let their imaginations run wild. The main bedroom upstairs offers a peaceful retreat for parents, with charming vintage furniture and cozy linens. On the first floor, there is a bedroom with a queen bed and a full bathroom right next to it, which is great for family members who prefer not to use stairs. Outside, the fenced yard is a wonderful spot for everyone to enjoy. Kids can play safely, and pets can run around freely while the grown-ups relax. There is also a beautiful garden area with seasonal flowers and plenty of greenery, creating a lovely setting for morning coffee or evening relaxation. For those moments when you need to unwind, the electric sauna is the perfect escape. Picture yourself relaxing in the sauna after a day of exploring, then stepping out to enjoy the fresh air on the patio. The patio has lots of seating and a dining area, making it a great place for family barbecues or just sitting together under the stars. The location of this home makes it easy to explore everything Homer has to offer. It’s just minutes from Homer’s Center for the Arts, where you can experience local culture through events, galleries, and live shows. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful, so you can enjoy a restful stay while still being close to the action. The house itself is full of vintage charm, with narrow staircases and creaky floors that are part of its unique character. These features are what make this historic home special, but they might not be ideal for everyone, so it’s important to consider them when planning your visit. Whether you're spending time in the yard, enjoying the sauna, or exploring the nearby attractions, this home is all about creating lasting family memories. It’s perfect for family reunions, vacations with kids, or a cozy getaway with loved ones.
