A walkthrough of the home:

Enter off the charming wood front porch into the foyer. Be greeted by warm wide-plank pine floors and original rough-hewn exposed beams. Warm up at the gorgeous fireplace with hand-carved mantel in the first floor living room, or at the pellet stove. We supply pellets.

Cook your grandmother's recipes in the fully-equipped kitchen. Pass the day in the dining room with its copper-roofed south-facing bay window. Sit around around the hardwood dining table, and watch the birds flit around the quince bushes.

Let your kids' creativity fly in the art and activity area for young children ages 1 to 8, designed by an early childhood educator! Create art with easel, watercolors, tempera paints, chunky brushes for small hands, pastels, markers, and colored pencils. Build with hand-made solid maple blocks. Enjoy sensory enrichment with playdough, coloring books, stuffies, and Magna-Tiles.

Enjoy the best sleep of your life in stunningly comfortable beds with spa-grade toiletries and linens, and real duck down duvets in the winter. Each bedroom has a picture-perfect forest view. Wake up to birdsong and frogs calls from the pond.

The second floor opens into a bonus living room arranged around a 55" LG OLED C3 Smart TV and Sonos Arc sound bar, balanced by a red-enameled cast iron stove. The TV comes with complimentary streaming subscriptions, so you can pick up with any and all the shows you're watching!

Open spring through fall, the peaceful three-season sunroom looks north into pristine forest. It's our favorite place to have coffee. Throughout summer, watch thousands of fireflies dance across the meadow.

The downstairs bathroom has a simple stall shower. The upstairs has a clawfoot tub with oil-rubbed bronze gooseneck shower. Laundry? No problem. Enjoy the brand-new Miele washer and dryer in the first floor bathroom.

The acreage spans 11 acres with fields, forest, a small pond, and babbling streams.

The whole house and 11 acre grounds are for you to enjoy!

Please do not enter the basement. Please don't swim in the retaining pond in the back yard.

Rural Whitingham has limited cell service. We recommend to download offline maps before venturing out! Wilmington, a 13-minute drive north, has cell reception.

If you are planning to build a fire, we recommend to pick up kindling at a hardware or general store.

In the rainy seasons, the lawn gets soggy. Bring waterproof boots if you'd like to walk the acreage! When coming in the winter or rainy seasons, please take care not to slip on the steps onto the front porch or into the sunroom in the back.

In the warm season, our landscaper may occasionally come to the property to mow grass and water trees.

We can host up to 8 people, but we find 4-5 adults is the sweet spot. Our pricing incorporates a small extra guest fee, per person per night, for the 6th and above guest. The upstairs living room has a cozy loveseat that can sleep a toddler, and a 3-seat couch that can sleep an adult. The downstairs living room has a sleeper sofa with queen mattress. Two additional twin mattresses and folding bedframes are available to guests self-serve in our storage room.

Semi-seasoned cord wood is available on the property for a nominal fee.

Please use caution if entering the garage. Landscaping tools and materials are stored there. The garage is not suitable for children and pets.

Our home welcomes cats and dogs. Though we clean exactingly between each reservation, we recommend to bring allergy medications if someone in your party has pet allergies.

We have two security cameras on the property. One faces outward over the front porch, and one faces outward from the garage.
