About this property
The Bird House centrally located minutes from Providence, Newport, Bristol
This charming, fully-renovated apartment in Somerset's Historic Main Street Village District is your perfect home base for exploring the area. Fall River MBTA Station now open operating 15 trips a day directly into Boston's South Station. The station is 7 miles from the apartment and will take you into Boston's South Station. All day parking is currently $4 a day and a trip on the train is $12.50 each way. Reduced pricing on weekends.
Relax on private balconies and decks with stunning panoramic views of the Taunton River and Mallard Point. Enjoy watching a variety of bird species fly by throughout the day, making The Bird House a true haven for nature lovers!
Inside, you'll find a modern and comfortable space with newer appliances, electronics, and furniture. We've chosen high-quality mattresses, pillows, and linens to ensure a restful night's sleep after your adventures. Everyone gets a hot shower with the on demand tankless water heater. This house was built in the 1800’s. The stairs getting up to the apartment are very steep and are not for everyone. Please take this into consideration if you plan to have older family members as part of your booking party. **New stairs July of 2025!! You will a new set of exterior stairs that lead directly into the main bedroom off the parking area with direct backyard access. These stairs are wide and to modern code unlike the existing stairs from the 1850’s. This should be very helpful to guests carting items in and out of the apartment.
The Bird House comfortably accommodates up to 5 guests with 2 queen beds and 2 additional full size beds encompassing 3 bedrooms. There's also space for up to 3 extra guests for an additional fees. Two off-street parking spaces are available in the driveway parking area. More may be made available upon request.
Ideal for a relaxing getaway or exploring the area. Enjoy the oversized fenced yard while sitting by the fire on the outside patio. In the off season, the apartment is perfect for remote work crews.
