About this property

Historic Steckel carriage house with picturesque landscaping

  • No extra cleaning fees! :)
    Relax in the charming Steckel carriage house, complete with fresh flower bouquet. It contains a second floor studio apartment with a king ,full, and twin size bed. Settle down with the Victrola record player and a fun selection of vintage records.

    There is a small, fully functional Kitchen. The fridge is stocked with water bottles, yogurt and my homemade granola.

    There is Smart TV plus an office area with monitors, a printer, 2 office chairs, and Wi-Fi.

    There is a children’s play area with books and toys. A pack-n-play crib is available. We also have a large playground close by for our own children that is available for you upon request.

    The bathroom and dressing/makeup room is on the first floor.
    No PETS.
    There is central heating and air.

    Linens are washed and dried with All - free and clear laundry soap and dryer sheets to protect those with sensitive skin.

    Please be advised that this building is over 100 years old. Light switches are in creative places. :) It is not wheelchair accessible. Please do not book if you have trouble going up steps.

    The nature-themed apartment complements the landscaping and numerous songbirds it is surrounded by in the summertime. Outside is an outdoor sitting area, with a locally made bistro table and two chairs.

    W.J. and Belle Steckel built the carriage house, in addition to their house, in 1910. It included living quarters for the groundskeeper/chauffeur. The apartment has been kept up-to-date by later owners.

    Bloomfield is a unique small town, surrounded by farms. There are old-fashioned stores, a coffee/flower shop, stately Carnegie library, and hiking/fishing/hunting opportunities in the area.
