Sunset House - 1920's South Florida Elegance
Sleeping Accommodations: 1 Bedroom, 1.5 Bathrooms, Sleeps 4
Bedding Information: 1 Queen. 1 Queen Sleeper Sofa
The outside shows custom-made over-sized exterior period copper lighting fixtures, most interior lighting fixtures original ca. 1920s, fully tiled garden shower in very lush tropical backyard filled with coconut palms, Heliconias, and Giant Bird of Paradise. We also provide a backyard barbecue with outdoor eating/entertaining facilities. Professional landscaping also includes all yard maintenance.
This is a one-bedroom, lower, duplex unit with a dramatic multi-arched spacious two-level front porch filled with wicker furniture and tropical plants where you can sit on the wicker and enjoy the parade of neighbors jogging, walking their dogs, or just out for a stroll on our beautiful street lined with million dollar homes.
The French doors off living room leading to large formal covered back porch with an incredible wrought iron gate and banister. The living room is dominated by a large chunk coral working fireplace. The formal dining room still retains the original wrought iron chandelier. There is a walk-in closet in the bedroom and walk-in shower in bathroom. The turn-of-the-century, queen-sized antique solid cherry-wood bed is from the Newport, Rhode Island estate of the famous financier J.P. Morgan.
We are conveniently located in the heart of the historical district of "Flamingo Park," just across the bridge from the island of Palm Beach. We are within walking distance (or use our bikes...) to fabulous downtown West Palm Beach and City Place, the Intercoastal, the Kravis Performing Arts Center, and Worth Avenue shopping. Choose from dozens of sidewalk cafes or go upscale to a large choice of fine restaurants. All that you will need for your stay at Sunset House has been carefully provided with "... the best of the best". Our goal is to impress... at less than the price of a hotel.

What a pleasant surprise when we arrived at this unique vacation rental. My wife and I had wanted to spend sometime in this part of Florida and almost made reservations at a Hotel in Palm Beach when we discoverd this "oh so nice" vacation rental. The owners made our stay even more pleasant with the knowledge of the area that they shared with us. We are already making plans to return in the spring.
