Sunny Westport 2BR Retreat above historic Mill

This stunning, two-bedroom apartment is located atop a renovated historic Mill in the quaint coastal New England town of Westport.

There is plenty of room for up to six people to prepare and enjoy intimate meals while viewing the beautiful stream and marsh below.

Original hardwood floors, and thoughtful furnishings, embrace the historic setting. With a multitude of windows, it is bright, airy, and filled with views. There is plenty of room for up to six people to prepare and enjoy intimate meals while viewing the beautiful marsh below. The "Flaming June" living/lounge area has a full size sofa bed. Relax and enjoy the splendor of the large "Frida" Bedroom. The 2nd bedroom, the "Pearl” bedroom while small, is very cozy with a full size bed and a smart TV. Our furnishings were designed and lovingly crafted to celebrate some of our favorite artists (Frida Kahlo, Johannes Vermeer, Sir Frederic Leighton, and Vincent Van Gogh). Amidst all of this creative and historic splendor, you will also find all of the modern amenities needed to accommodate the perfect stay. If you wish to lounge on a beach, we are located very near several beaches in Westport, Southport, and Fairfield Beach.
If you are here on business, we're thrilled to announce that we have open B@Work Co-Working. This is a multi-level work space with views of the Sasco River and waterfall, just downstairs from this charming vacation rental. Our guests get an access card for 24/7 access during their stay.

Guests can park in our private parking lot. You enter the apartment by accessing the key in a lockbox, which allows for self check in. The apartment is up one flight of stairs. The entire space is yours. We do allow pets. We trust our guests will take advantage of this accommodation responsibly. The apartment has one large bedroom with a queen bed, a small bedroom with a full size bed, and a sofa bed in the living/ lounge area. We have smart TV’s in each bedroom and the living/ lounge space. There is a full kitchen with plenty of plates, glasses, cups, and utensils for six people. Of course a microwave, toaster, and coffee maker are included. There is also a dishwasher. The kitchen is large enough for six, and well equipped and supplied. There is a spectacular dining section with a table for six. Plenty of sunlight (or moonlight) coming through the large windows. You even have a lovely view of the Mill pond below. The living/ lounge section has a cozy couch that is also a sofa bed (full size). You can enjoy our large screen smart TV’s with cable and Amazon Fire Stick. Of course you can always stream your favorite music on our Amazon Alexa/Sonos System. We own the entire building which was a working Mill until the early 20th century. We have completely embraced its history and renovated with love. Guests also have access to the washer and dryer located in the building. If you are here for work, you have access to our multi-level Co-working space, also located in the building. There is a small cafe area below, and a quaint outside table and chairs that guests also have access to.

Great property in CT
The rental was a great option to stay in this part of CT. It was close to everything and offered plenty of space relative to a hotel. Would highly recommend if you are interested.

Westport trip
Perfect for my sister and daughter. Just right sized, sunny and cheerful, plus the we-work type of space downstairs was awesome. Across the street from our favorite bagel place, and near Grey Goose, our favorite local restaurant. In town to check on family, so this was a great place to stay. Gerard was extremely responsive, especially when we had a mishap with our keys- he dropped everything and helped out! Five stars!

Gerard’s place was a 5-Star experience. It was bright, cheery, and furnished with beautiful artful furniture and accents. It was also very clean and quiet despite being on a busy road. The kitchen was well-equipped and the beds were comfortable. As a host, Gerard was warm and exceptionally responsive and accommodating. Would highly recommend.

We had a great time staying here. We were in town as my son was part of a sailing certification at the Longshore Sailing School. Everything was in the property as stated and Gerard was very good at following up with our check in and check out. Thanks for a great stay!
