Located in the very heart of old town, literally steps from Queen Street with its shops, restaurants and theatres, Summerhill House is a post-beam style house - circa 1827. This is a spacious charming house for large families or couples who like to travel together and stay together. Perfect 3 couples or a family up to 6 (provided siblings are OK sharing a bed).
Summerhill House is one of the top rated and most sought after vacation homes in Niagara! It is a historic home with renovations and updates to add all the luxury and comfort of a modern home. Exposed wooden beams throughout provide some of the architecture that gives the old world charm.
Walk up to the inviting front porch that has Adirondack chairs (or Muskoka chairs if you are Canadian), a great place to sit with your morning coffee or an evening glass of wine and watch the horse and carriage stroll by!
The foyer spills into the living area with a big cozy 'L' shaped couch and a sitting chair, with a TV. A charming round dining table perfect for gathering playing a good old fashioned board game. There is a two-piece bath on the main level for your convenience.
Continuing on to the rear of the home is a spacious, fully-equipped kitchen and dining room. Kitchen includes pots, pans, cutlery, kettle, coffee maker and of course, wine glasses for you to enjoy one of Niagara's Finest Wines. This is a wonderful place to watch that cook in your family. Patio doors lead out to the back yard with a deck that has seating for all your guests, BBQ/grill and a garden area.
A flight of carpeted stairs lead you to the 2nd level to all 3 bedrooms. The first two bedrooms have queen beds with modern ensuites and luxurious bed linens.
The front queen bedroom has a walk out to the large covered balcony that has comfortable seating overlooking King Street with its horse-drawn carriages.
The third bedroom has a king bed and is located at the back of the house overlooking the backyard. There are TVs in each room to watch the news or your favourite shows before bed.
The lower level has a generous sized games room with foosball table, air hockey, and another TV.
Laundry area is tucked away in the corner of the games room behind closet doors. Towels and basic cleaning supplies are included.
In total there are 5 Samsung Smart TVs with access to streaming services, including a live TV app.
Located just steps of away from the corner of King St andQueen St, Summerhill House is across the street to Balzac's coffee shop where you could zip across to grab coffee before your guests get up for a morning surprise. The Irish Harp is also located across the street.
Location has so much to do with making a holiday really something special. Walk to any of the Shaw Festival's theatres, shops and restaurants on Queen St.
If you'd prefer nature walks over walking on Queens St, the trails are just steps away and you could walk to have brunch at Riverbend Inn, or a beautiful meal at Peller Estates (the walk there and back will keep you in shape)! So if you are looking for a vacation rental, look no further than Summerhill House.
Summerhill House is a licensed short term rental in the town of Niagara-on-the-Lake. Lic #095-2021
