About this property

Sarah's Sanctuary-Renovated Midtown Melrose Home With Pool-Heated with surcharge

Newly renovated house with semi-private HEATED pool (see below for details on Pool heating prices). We have a full time tenant in the guest house (detached and away from the main house).

Woodlea-Melrose Historic Neighborhood features beautifully kept historic homes and is quiet, safe, and wonderfully walkable. We aim for the perfect blend of homestyle comforts with a resort style feel. The furnishings and accouterments of the home will make you feel comfortable and pampered. Kitchen is all set up for cooking and we include starter items for coffee, tea, and paper products. Towels and linens are always provided clean and top quality. We want you to be comfortable during your stay. Master Bedroom has a King bed and the second bedroom has a California King. The family room has a trundle bed to provide 2 additional twin beds.

The property is the main house on a large corner lot. A guest house is also on the property with a permanent tenant. The main house is all yours. The pool and backyard area is shared. The grill by the house is for guest use only. The permanent tenant will respect your privacy. We are following safe distancing and have a lockbox for check in and out.

*POOL HEATING:
Pool heat option is all or nothing for the duration of your stay. Many guests do not want pool heating so we offer for a surcharge for those that do. If you want the pool to be comfortable for swimming during your stay we recommend pool heating at these times and the rate we charge will be the following prices multiplied by the number of nights of your reservation (we discount for stays of a week or longer):
January and February $60
March $50
April $40
May 1 - 15 $30
May 15 - September 30 No heating needed
October $30
November $40
December $50
For example, a 5 night stay in March would be $250 for pool heating.

A solar cover is used to help heat and retain heat in the pool. During your stay we ask guests to return the cover into place when not using the pool and particularly overnight. This allows us to charge reasonable heating prices and keep down our gas usage. Also the heater will not be able to maintain a comfortable swimming temperature if the cover is not used in this manner.

***Security Cameras in use. Outside only. One pointed at the front door entrance. One pointed along the side yard monitoring the side gate. One on the pool equipment. No cameras are monitoring the pool.***

Perfect relaxing get away bungalow
This home is warm and inviting from the moment you step in the door. One of a kind art and eclectic little “beach house” in the middle of the desert. Very well equipped to eat in and near many places to eat out. Great location, lovely neighborhood.

Great stay
Great house for our 2 couple travels. Nicely furnished and clean. My wife is very picky about clean homes and this one met her standards. The pool was great for an afternoon lounging. Overall a great place to stay.
