Having come into existence prior to the Spanish American War, this home was on a journey that has culminated in its current incarnation as a 5 Star Airbnb that is immensely popular with guests from around the world and the owners regarded as Super Hosts. A Queen Anne Victorian beauty built in 1890 by Louis D. Marzoni who was chief lumber inspector for lumber tycoon Henry Baar, the property was lovingly restored in 2014 and continues as it began with quality workmanship throughout. This can be attested to by its inclusion on the National Register of Historic Places which testifies to its superb craftsmanship, historic preservation and structural integrity. At one point it was the location of the Spanish Consulate. In 2022 a separate carriage house was added that comprises six suites all with French doors opening onto the exquisite heated saltwater pool spa nestled within a picturesque courtyard adorned with lush, tropical landscaping- a true oasis of tranquility. The main house exudes grandeur on three levels and features seven suites including one in the Tower. The kitchen is a chef’s dream with Wolf range top, Sub Zero, Kitchen Aid, butcher block island, granite countertops and custom vent. The baths have been updated to provide comfort and spa-like amenities. The location is ideal with restaurants, shopping and art venues close by. Easy to reach whether you walk, bike or drive. This amazing property offers many possibilities as a profitable home sharing location, an investment opportunity and a special events venue. In any case, there is no denying the charm and the draw of history at this property. As one returning guest said in a review, “ Second time staying here and I’m even more enchanted!! The hosts charmingly juxtapose modern art pieces with the traditional classics. Crystal chandelier shining bright sunshine on bright colorful paintings. And the pool view right from my bed makes me feel like I’m in a luxurious chateau in a travel magazine !
