About this house rental
Beautiful circa 1831 storefront home with 2,050 sq ft. of luxury. Second floor living quarters with a gourmet kitchen, living room, study, master bedroom and bath with antique claw-foot bathtub and more. Original pine flooring and a combination of old and new; you will fall in love with this home. First floor has second bedroom, bath, laundry and more living space. Off-street parking and a private side entrance under a beautiful brick porch in the heart of Old Towne Petersburg.
The Space:
Located just 3.8 miles from Fort Lee and less than a mile from Virginia State University, also within easy walking distance of downtown Petersburg's locally owned dining, entertainment and other shopping options. House is a short drive to Southpark Mall and convenient to dining and entertainment.
Centrally located with the mountains to the west and ocean beaches to the east and so much more in every direction, our house is an ideal place to stay.
This house includes all furniture, housewares, linens and toiletries…everything but the groceries, although there might even be a few food items when you arrive.
Guest access:
The entire house is available for your use. Additional laundry, soaps, shampoos and cleaning supplies are located in the closet in the first floor bathroom across from the washer and dryer. The first floor laundry hamper is in the bedroom closet. An iron and ironing board are located on the second floor in a cabinet next to the writing desk.
This is a non-smoking, drug free house. Guest agrees to a payment for an additional flat cleaning fee of $150 if the house smells of smoke or drugs when the guest checks out. Neither the guests nor any invitee are permitted to smoke or otherwise use products including but not limited to vaping, tobacco, and drugs while on the property.
Each bathroom is stocked with four bath towels, four hand towels and four washcloths.
Should you decide to take any of these articles, guest agrees to a payment in the following amounts:
~ BATH TOWELS $12.00
~ HAND TOWELS $ 9.00
~ WASH CLOTHS $ 6.00
Keys - When you arrived, there were four keys in the house. One in the lockbox and three in a glass on the pub table on the second floor. Place one key in the lockbox on the entry door and the other three in the glass on the pub table in the kitchen. Should any key be missing after your checkout, guest agrees to a payment of $100 to cover the cost of rekeying the lock on the door.
Prior to checking out, please make sure you throw all trash in the cans in the back yard, load the dishwasher with dirty dishes (not necessary to run), place dirty towels in the laundry hamper on the second floor or in the first floor bedroom closet, leave the used beds unmade and tidy up the house so it looks similar to when you checked in.
Finally, please do not burn down my house.

I have stayed at many VRBO’s, BUT this one was a cut above….not only beautiful, but Kim provides breakfast groceries with snacks and if that’s not enough you forgot something? Nope it’s provided toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo and conditioner….etc!!! A definite customer forward experience!!!

Staying there was above what we expected! My husband and our son stayed there because were in the area to drop our son off at Ft Gregg Adams for Ait. The base is almost a straight line from the property which made it very convenient On the outside of the property it’s very unassuming, but the inside was filled with antiques, original wood beams and the property is full with history. Decorated to the era. Being in the historical district of Petersburg was very fitting. Nightly we heard passing cars that had very loud bumping music but aside from that the neighborhood was cute and friendly. Now the host Kim, what a sweetheart of a man. He responds quickly to your needs and he went above and beyond anyone or anywhere we have ever stayed. He shared a guide book he has been putting together which was very helpful and we did many things on it and his recommendations for restaurants were spot on. If you are ever in the area of Petersburg, doing the historical suggestions on his list is a must. So much civil war history in the area. Do not pass up this amazing place. We definitely will be back. Thank you Kim for your hospitality and sharing your beautiful home with us.
