About this house rental

CITY OF NAPA LICENSED VACATION RENTAL: VR17-0081

Come and enjoy all that Napa has to offer at The Banks House. This beautiful Victorian home is located next to downtown Napa on First Street. It is listed in the Napa historic register and is elegantly nestled among other Victorian homes designed by one of Napa Valley’s renowned architects, Luther Turton, in the 1890s. In 2018 the house was extensively remodeled, creating an updated light filled home, which includes all the modern amenities while retaining its original Napa Victorian charm.

The Banks House provides an ideal base for your Napa visit. It is a short (10 minute) pleasant walk into downtown Napa and its acclaimed restaurants, wine tasting rooms, theaters, entertainment and shops. The house is a convenient two minute drive from Highway 29, providing access to the Up Valley Napa towns and wineries.

The Banks House has two bedrooms, each with a king size bed, and two new full bathrooms located on the upper level, and downstairs is a new large suite. The house can accommodate 6 overnight guests.

The home’s upper level provides a light filled open floor plan with distinctive Victorian era high ceilings, providing a wonderful setting for your group to enjoy time together. As you move through the seamlessly free-flowing layout that connects the living room, dining room and kitchen, you will enjoy sweeping views of the backyard garden and barn. The new kitchen and all new bathrooms feature white subway tile, stone countertops, state of the art appliances, sparkling new fixtures, gleaming hardwood floors and porcelain/marble floor tile.

The butler's pantry off the kitchen offers a wine refrigerator and another sink, which will be the hub of your wine tasting entertaining. The dining room and living room are invitingly furnished with plush, comfortable sofas, flat screen TV and a spacious farmhouse dining table, where you will gather for meals and conversation. For your comfort, the air conditioning and heating systems have two zones (upper level and lower level) to keep the home temperate.

Downstairs, you will enter through a rustic barn door, and find a large suite, which includes a living room with desk, flat screen TV and inviting sofa and swivel chairs, a king size bed and an adjoining bathroom with a beautiful farmhouse vanity with dual vessel sinks and a spacious shower with glass door.

Step out to the yard, and you will find yourself in an oasis: olive trees, lavender, trumpet vines, camellias and roses. At the far end, marvel at the historic barn next to the cozy al-fresco picnic table, where you will dine in complete shade. Hone your skills on the bocce court while being cheered by your family and friends as they sit alongside the bocce ball court. The garden lights create a magical, romantic setting in the evening. The Banks House will indulge you with an authentic and memorable Wine Country experience.

Really enjoyed our stay at the Banks House. Location was super convenient to downtown and highways making it easy to get to where we needed to be very quickly. The house has all the amenities needed and then some. The family had a great time and Elizabeth was spot on with all of the recommendations.

The Banks House is a wonderful property within walking distance of all that downtown Napa has to offer. Having three bathrooms was heavenly with our large group. The kitchen is well stocked which helped out when cooking breakfast for everyone. The downstairs suit also gave a bit of privacy for part of our group. Also took advantage of the laundry facilities so we all went home with clean clothes. First time that happened after a trip. Parking right out front also appreciated. Elizabeth is an amazing host with lots of recommendations for restaurants, wineries, etc.

I brought my mother and two other family members to Napa for a long weekend and this property was perfect for a girls' trip. Centrally located and close to downtown Napa (two members of our crew were too old to walk the .8 or so miles to downtown, but it would be walkable for most groups). Elizabeth, the hostess, was so helpful with Napa-area recommendations before our trip. The house is beautifully remodeled and very comfortable, with thoughtful touches like a full, well-stocked coffee bar. We had a lovely time and I would recommend this property to anyone for a low-key stay in Napa.

The four of us stayed in this beautiful home for 5 nights and everything about it was 5 stars. The location is perfect, a quick drive to wineries and restaurants. The host sent us recommendations in the area which was very helpful. The kitchen is fully stocked with every utensil and appliance you could need. The beds were comfortable and the entire house was immaculate. Would love to stay here again on our next trip!

Everything You Need! Our stay at The Banks House was nothing short of amazing. The property was impeccably clean, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. From basic amenities like trash bags, seasoning, and laundry soap, to fun extras like a bocce court for family fun, they had it all covered.The beds were incredibly comfortable, ensuring a great night's sleep after exploring the local area. The location was absolutely perfect, allowing us to walk to all the great spots in downtown. Elizabeth,was exceptionally accommodating. She was always available to answer our questions and her list of recommendations for local attractions, cafe’ and dining was spot on. Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. It felt like a home away from home, and we look forward to booking again for our next visit. If you're considering a trip to the area, do yourself a favor and book The Banks House—you won't be disappointed!
