Huge covered front porch, backyard orchard/garden, spacious rooms. This home, located in an iconic family-friendly neighborhood, is more than 100 years old, and was cut up into a duplex many decades ago. Your host lives upstairs in an entirely separate unit. You will have complete privacy. The space: There’s one bedroom at the back of the unit. In the front is a parlor room that can be closed off completely and function as a second bedroom. It has a futon sofa that can be made into a bed, but the space can also accommodate a queen-size air mattress. There are smart TVs in the parlor bedroom and in the living room. Guest access: You’re welcome to enjoy the front porch, which has gliders and a small table with chairs. You’re also welcome to explore the backyard garden/orchard, which has seasonal fruits and veggies, a fire pit and small grill. If you plan to bring a pet, please connect with me when you make your reservation so that we can ensure our pets don’t interfere with each other (I have two very friendly dogs). Bringing a pet without informing me will result in an added fee. Within walking distance: Several good restaurants plus Pease's candy shop, a pizza place, and local fave SnoBizz stand. We're also near Springfield's favorite park, Washington Park, which has tennis courts and an amazing playground. If you're traveling with a canine, your host can share info on all the dog-friendly bars, cafes, and shopping spots. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Entertainment - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Porch/lanai ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - One pet total ### Suitability/Accessibility - No lift - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 3:00 PM Minimum check-in age - 18 ### Check-out Check-out before 3:00 PM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Pets Pets are allowed Service animals are welcome, and are exempt from fees Welcoming dogs only 1 total pets ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know This property is managed by a private host (a party not acting within their trade, business or profession).

The home was clean, cozy, and had everything you could need from the multiple charging cubes to bathroom and kitchen essentials. If you appreciate antique furnishings this home has it. The backyard was nice and had cute pathways between the many trees and garden. Our dog loved all the smells too ! The host is quick to respond and easy going. Highly recommend ! ##### alanna k.
