Step back in time to the 1890s while you stay at this charming, historical Victorian home. Youâll experience elegant architecture and design, while enjoying the modern conveniences of a freshly renovated home that is conveniently, and delightfully, located in the Paso Robles wine country region.
For those interested in larger gatherings (6-9 people, depending how close you want to be!) there is a second Airbnb on the same lot which has a separate entrance and driveway and is immediately adjacent to this house. It is available to rent for an additional fee. See "Littlefield Bungalow Suite" or simply message host for more information. The backyard is divided so each house has privacy but also provides convenient access for larger groups.
ABOUT THE SPACE
This classic 1890âs Victorian home offers two bedrooms with queen sized beds, each with a private bath. There is also a futon sofa in the living room for one adult or two small children, making the home an ideal place for a couples retreat or for families to reconnect. Each bathroom has a bathtub for you to relax and unwind in after a day touring picturesque landscape, historical parks, and world renowned wineries located nearby. There is also a range of board and patio games available for those looking for a more âstaycationâ, relax-at-home experience.
The home includes central air conditioning, free Wifi and a television in the living room. There is a full kitchen with refrigerator, oven, microwave, dishwasher, and basic cooking and dining equipment such as pots, pans, dishes and utensils. Genuine antiques and period piece furniture includes a prohibition-era âhide-a-barâ (a cabinet that converts from an innocuous dish cabinet into a chic cocktail station). The charming fireplace is original but only decorative.
Please note that this is a true historical home. Closet space is limited. However, both bedrooms have a rolling clothing rack that offers extra storage space.
LUSH GARDEN
This residence includes a large, lush garden area with several seating areas where one can enjoy a morning cup of coffee or a glass of wine in the evening. For those who wish to entertain, there is a comfortable patio with an outdoor dining table for eight. There is also a gaming area with a bean bag toss game, and a secluded area with a park bench for those who would like to curl up with a good book.
Ample street parking is available at the front of the house.
PETS WELCOME
We love pets! Bring your fur family members! Please be mindful that all dogs must be on a leash when they are outside the home, including the patio area. The yard dividers have spaces that dogs can easily scurry under, and all animals (dogs especially) must be monitored and must stay in the designated yard. There is a lovely city park just across the street with a large green space and shaded picnic areas. And please, clean up after all pets, and then dispose of waste in a proper receptacle.
THE NEIGHBORHOOD
The Littlefield Victorian is located in a peaceful, small-town neighborhood with roosters, goats and many birds making there homes here. You may hear music from the local park, which is across the street, as it does host events at times. The park also has a public swimming pool. Please verify that it is open and the hours before planning to use it.
Californiaâs second oldest bar, the Elkhorn, is a two block walk. In 1869 and 1870, the notorious outlaw Jesse James, and his brother Frank, frequented this bar while Jesse recovered from a gunshot wound at the nearby Drury James ranch, which was owned by a family member. Also within walking distance is the historic San Miguel Mission, founded in 1797.
There are some really great eating places that are a short walk away including Taco Mafia, Mannyâs Pizza and Leoâs Cafe. There is also a Dollar General store for any last minute items you may need.
The residence is located a just off the 101 freeway. It is a short 10 minute drive to downtown Paso Robles. Multiple wine tour roads to many world-class wineries begin a short distance away.
