Welcome to our charming den at Park View!
It is a basement and we live upstairs with our 2 doggies - a frenchie and a pug and no kids so there will be some footsteps when we walk them and some TV sounds but hopefully minimal sounds since we are mostly upstairs.
The contactless, private entrance is through a well-lit, short alley and our home is at the very end (see photos). I also provide a parking pass so you can park for free (street parking). I hope to host you soon!
The space
The space is a fully functioning studio basement that has its own mini kitchen complete with an induction stove, water heater for your tea, french press, complementary tea and coffee, a mini fridge and a microwave oven.
It has its own heater/airconditioning unit that allows you to set your own temperature. There is a TV with Amazon fire stick so you can log-in and watch Netflix, Prime, Hulu and Disney+. The entire space is littered with my fave books and climbing (my passion!) decor.
There is a work desk and our WiFi functions well so dont worry about missing that zoom call.
It comes with a full bath (with bidet!), a comfortable queen size bed, dining table for 2, daybed sofa that converts to a nice twin bed. Extra pillows are available as well as additional comforters, if needed.
Since it is a basement unit, the ceiling is a bit short and if you are taller than 6’2, it maybe a bit uncomfortable for you (my partner is 6’2 and he seems fine but anyone taller might have a problem). It also has limited natural light so if that is an issue, this may not be the perfect unit for you.
The main house is more than 100 yrs old and with hardwood floors so you may hear minimal footsteps noise (just a caveat!) a few times during the day. We try our best to soundproof the space but short of ripping the original floors to soundproof it, there’s nothing else we can do. For the most part, its pretty quiet! However, if you are very sensitive to small noises, a basement accommodations may not suit you.
The unit faces the back alley which makes it relatively quiet and free parking pass (to park on the street) is available upon advanced request.
Guest access
The entire main house and the garage is not accessible to guests since its our primary residence. We are happy to share the backyard as well as the gas grill we have there.
The unit is outfitted with everything you might need but If you need anything else, please let us know and we’re happy to provide if we can.
