About this property
Retro House ~50's and 90's~ with arcade, and a mini-escape room
A huge space (8 total rooms plus 2 bathrooms) which includes an arcade and a mystery room (can you get in?!)
The main space is a 1950's vibe with period authentic decor and furnishings, such as a record player, 1950's magazines, and a classic 1950's kitchen.
There is a 90's entertainment room with DVD player, a Nintendo, and toys.
Out your door is a very walkable area with many stores and restaurants nearby.
AC is in the bedrooms only. There is no wifi, but service is good in the area. Also, this is a multi-unit building. There is a thrift store and a private residence attached, but separate from your space. All of this listing is private to you, along with a dedicated entrance. We think you will love stepping back in time at the Retro House!

Per my family, as I was unable to make this trip, they really liked all that was there. My teenage kids were busy checking out EVERYTHING. My MIL loved all the vintage stuff. They mentioned everything they needed was readily available as well. Jesse, thank you for sharing this adorable property.
