About this house rental

The Hawkins House | Historic 1880s Charm in Downtown Pensacola

Step into history at **The Hawkins House**, affectionately known as **The Red Door**, a beautifully restored 1880s home in downtown Pensacola. Nestled along a peaceful side street, this spacious 2,000-square-foot retreat blends historic Southern charm with modern comforts, offering an inviting getaway for families, couples, and friends.

Inside, soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, thoughtfully curated furnishings, and preserved 19th-century architectural details reflect the home's rich character. The open-concept living and dining areas provide welcoming spaces to gather, while the well-appointed kitchen and comfortable accommodations make it easy to settle in and feel at home.

Accommodating up to six guests, The Hawkins House features two bedrooms, an adjoining bunk room, and two-and-a-half bathrooms.

Sleeping Arrangements & Bathroom Layout

MAIN FLOOR | KING BEDROOM + ADJOINING BUNK ROOM

The primary bedroom features a king-size bed, dresser, and walk-in closet. An adjoining bunk room offers twin-over-twin bunk beds, accommodating two additional guests. A sliding barn door separates the two sleeping areas.

The spacious downstairs full bathroom features a walk-in shower and a classic clawfoot soaking tub.

IMPORTANT – PLEASE READ: DOWNSTAIRS MASTER BATHROOM ACCESS

The downstairs full bathroom is located beyond the bunk room. Guests staying in the king bedroom must walk through the bunk room to access the shower and bathtub. Because the bunk room also serves as the passageway to this bathroom, it does not offer complete privacy, particularly when the bathroom is in use.

For added convenience, a separate half bathroom is located in the downstairs hallway and can be accessed without passing through either bedroom.

We encourage guests traveling together to consider this unique layout when planning sleeping arrangements.

SECOND FLOOR | QUEEN BEDROOM

The upstairs bedroom features a queen-size bed and its own private full bathroom with a bathtub, offering a comfortable retreat separate from the main-floor sleeping areas.

IMPORTANT – STAIRCASE ACCESS: The upstairs bedroom is accessible via a narrow staircase with 15 steps. Please consider this when booking, especially if you have mobility limitations.

Historic Charm Meets Downtown Convenience

Located on a tranquil residential side street, The Hawkins House offers the charm of historic Pensacola while placing you within easy reach of downtown's vibrant restaurants, boutiques, galleries, entertainment, and cultural attractions.

Enjoy exploring the surrounding historic neighborhoods, strolling through downtown, or discovering the many local restaurants and gathering spots that make Pensacola such a distinctive destination.

Visiting for a Wedding or Special Event?

The Hawkins House is conveniently situated within approximately one mile of many of downtown Pensacola's popular wedding and event venues, including:

The Barkley House, The Palafox House, Old Christ Church, 5eleven Palafox, The Junction Pensacola, Supposey Warehouse + Garden, Palafox Wharf Waterfront, The Rails on Wright Street, Court de Luna, New World Inn, and Seville Quarter.

What a Wonderful house!! We loved Everything about it, it was so close to downtown that we left the car at the house and walked everywhere. Everything that we needed was supplied, I even borrowed ideas from the house to do at my own home! The backyard was perfect for the dogs!! They were thrilled to be on the trip with us and not at the vet being boarded. Cannot say enough good things about this house, it's a definite Must, will look for it again if we need to come back to Pensacola. We highly recommend this awesome house and the owners were easy to work with as well.Thank you for allowing us to share in your house, it will be in my memory as one of my favorites :-)Sheila & Rob S

Great place to stay! Beautiful area and fun to walk. We walked with our dogs all around the area. The house has a great backyard area that is fenced in and the dogs loved being able to roam around it. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again. The host was excellent with communication and the house had all the necessary items to make for a pleasant stay.
