About this property

The Purple House | Spacious Vibrant Downtown Chateau, Steps from Lake Michigan

Featured Amenities: 

1 minute to Downtown South Haven
2 large living spaces 

The Purple House proudly sits at the corner of Michigan Avenue and Kalamazoo Streets, sporting vibrant colors and the vintage details of a Victorian "painted lady".  From the classic front porch to the intricate inlaid wood floors, original woodwork and tall ceilings, there's nothing like it in South Haven.

The front entryway features the original wood staircase, stained glass window and decorative fireplace.  The spacious main level includes two large living rooms and dining room, a bedroom with a queen bed and a half bath.  The kitchen includes a vintage sink, but otherwise features modern appliances and cabinetry, plus another dining area.  Upstairs you'll find another four spacious bedrooms and three full bathrooms, all sporting beautiful antique dressers and handsome woodwork.

Some items to note:
In this nearly 100 year old home, you'll be asked to remove your shoes at the door to preserve the condition of the wood floors.

Parking: Parking for 3 vehicles on site with additional parking at Free Public Lot, 1 block North
Pets: None Allowed

Nice house and big
It is a very nice property close to beach and downtown shopping. Parking spot are only two. With third being in front of garage but if you park there you will get a ticket from the city for blocking the sidewalk. There is parking close by but it does require some walking or shuttling cars around. But we enjoyed our stay very much with 5 adults and two toddlers. I would definitely recommend the property and would definitely stay there again. It has 3 King , 3 queen and 2 twin beds. With 3 bathrooms.

We will be back.
Location is perfect. Short walk to anywhere you want to go in downtown South Haven. The listing was exactly how the house was, spacious rooms, plenty of bathrooms, kitchen area is perfect for cooking or entertaining and very clean. Communication with management was professional and timely. Our entire group would stay here again.
