Currently utilized as a family home with guest suites operating as Porters Landing Guest House, there are multiple opportunities with this property. A third guest suite is partially completed and the existing garage is functioning as an artist studio space. In addition to this incredible multi-faceted building, the owners are willing to sell rights to the five-star Porters Landing Guest House brand, marketing collateral, domain, guest list (many repeat customers) and furnishings to be able to begin hosting guests on day one.

But the home itself has inspired marriage proposals, engagements, and anniversary traditions. The rear half of the home consists of a large foyer, perfect for greeting guests, having coffee or even serving breakfast. It contains two spacious one-bedroom suites, ensuite with kitchenettes: the Schooner Suite and the Merchant's Quarters, and potential for a future 3rd one-bedroom suite. The original main house, likely built in the late 18th or early 19th century, retains its classic beauty, stately proportions, and restrained colonial style right down to the fan carving above the front door. Inside, many of the wonderful original features such as wide plank floors, graceful center stairs, and elegantly carved mantels and molding now accent carefully restored modern living spaces.

The front of the house holds the oversized kitchen, home office, two living rooms (one utilized as a bedroom), an ensuite bedroom upstairs and an additional bedroom or two depending upon the third guest suite option.
