You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Private Romantic Bungalow for Artists & Writers, 7 Mins to Downtown Richmond,

Your own private 1-bedroom bungalow mindfully appointed with everything you will need for a long or extended stay in Richmond, VA (or for locals, RVA).

The Lewis House is tucked away behind your host's main house, a little red cottage that has been built entirely out of reclaimed material from RVA's famous local architectural salvage operation, Caravati's. The project was started by the home's original owner, an avid antique collector, and completed in 2024 by your hosts.

Whether you're visiting Richmond for a weekend or looking for a quiet getaway to work on your special project, the Lewis House is ready for you and up to (1) additional guest. Just 7 minutes from the downtown business center, 5 minutes from Cary Town shopping, and 2 minutes from the Forest Hills shops, the Lewis House is close to everything while feeling worlds away from the bustle of the city.

A cobbled footpath leads from your street parking (we're a tiny cul-de-sac, you'll always be able to park out front) to the cottage. The front porch is perfect for sitting with it's rockers and small table for drinks.

Inside, the combination bedroom and sitting room are highlighted by the enormous reclaimed farmhouse windows. A queen memory-foam mattress is set high, with storage draws under the frame, one for each occupant. A standing clothes is rack is available for your shirts and dresses.

Next is the kitchen, a large slop sink is perfect for artists needing to clean their brushes, the fridge includes a freezer for longer stays, and an induction cook eye is available for those meals that can't be prepared in the convection toaster/air fryer or microwave.

The bathroom includes towels and a walk-in shower. A small utility closet hides your full length mirror, and don't forget to flip the switch to enjoy your beautiful custom stained glass window!

Included: Central air/heat, linens, towels, paper towels, toilet paper, soap, shampoo and conditioner, a clothes steamer (in lieu of an iron), and the use of a washer & dryer can be arranged upon request for a small cleaning fee.
