Cozy 2-bedroom, 1-bath cottage within easy walking distance from downtown. Many colorful artistic touches and unique features, large fenced backyard. Presently a popular Airbnb with over 300 5-star reviews, this quaint cottage is only 2.5 blocks from Washington Street. Shielded by a bamboo privacy fence, the cottage sits at the front of a deep, narrow lot, with a spacious and shady backyard. The shingled exterior has a metal roof. The eye-catching interior features extensive multicolor tile mosaic work on the floors, walls and kitchen counter. Recent upgrades include a 200-amp electrical service, new GFCI outlets, and significant structural improvements with new steel posts and upgraded beams. The back porch has been refreshed, a new ceiling fan added to the bedroom, and the kitchen bar has been updated. Outside, the foundation and gutters have been repaired, and the area around the house has been regraded for better drainage. These updates enhance both the safety and comfort of this charming home. The side entry opens to a light-filled sitting room with 7 windows, an attractive pine beadboard ceiling, a painted concrete floor and built-in shelves. A non-working fireplace at the end of the room provides a first look at the colorful mosaic work prominent throughout the cottage. The living room features a mosaic tile floor, beadboard ceiling and French doors. A woodstove (gas) in this room provides much of the heat for the cottage. Two arched entryways connect the living room and kitchen, which has a tile floor similar to the living room, and additional tilework on the counter. The cabinetry is white, and there is a double stainless-steel sink. Appliances include a Samsung gas range, a Whirlpool refrigerator-freezer, a Kitchen Aid dishwasher, a top-loading Samsung washer and an LG dryer. A window air conditioner in the kitchen effectively cools the home in summer months. A back door in the kitchen opens to an elevated covered back porch overlooking the back yard. There are two bedrooms. One is a corner room with two windows, a mosaic floor and a ceiling fan. The second bedroom currently houses a indoor infrared sauna which would need to be relocated for the space to function as a bedroom. The hallway bath has a shower-tub and a pedestal sink with an attractive glass bowl. The large fenced yard is deep and especially popular with many of Airbnb guests who bring their dogs. The yard includes a firepit with a sitting area. Currently in a natural state requiring little maintenance, which is preferred by some homeowners, not to mention birds and wildlife, the yard borders an historic home with extensive grounds, helping to create an even greater sense of privacy. This is truly a one-of-a-kind property, with the added virtue of being an easy stroll from Lewisburg's historic downtown, with shopping, fine dining, services and year-round entertainment.
