From the moment we walked through the front door, we were captivated by the museum-quality design, the exquisite antique furniture, and the impressive art pieces that adorned every corner of the house. Yet, this fairytale home was not just a display piece; it seamlessly blended modern amenities with its classic charm to ensure our utmost comfort. The heart of any home is its kitchen, and this one was a culinary dream come true. It boasted top-notch appliances, a wide array of dishes, pots, and pans, and a generous selection of spices that made cooking a delight. The kitchen quickly became the heart of our stay, allowing us to whip up delicious meals and create lasting memories. What truly sets this property apart is its versatility. With ample gathering spaces and cozy corners, "Old Vic" accommodated every mood and preference. Whether we wanted to come together for lively conversations or enjoy some quiet alone time, the house had us covered. The front porch was a personal favorite, offering a cozy spot to savor morning coffee while watching the sunrise or to unwind with a cocktail as we soaked in breathtaking sunsets. The third-floor honeymoon room was a true gem. The panoramic view was simply stunning, the bed was incredibly comfortable, and the quality of the linens made us feel pampered.
