Description of the Sebastian vacation home rental

Ready for some relaxation in luxury! This is the perfect place for a family reunion or
business gathering / meeting. All services included. No Weddings or large parties permitted. This beautifully maintained 1909 estate home
sits on a very large lot and still has all the charm from it's time. Including the generous
front porch with comfortable seating which looks out unobstructed, over the Indian River across a
large green front lawn. Watch dolphins play, manatees swim and some incredible bird life fly by while
sipping a cool beverage. Witness the very rare and seasonal White Pelicans who frequently live on the
neighboring docks feed on the abundant sea life. You'll also see many of Florida's protected and
endangered wildlife such as the Florida Osprey, Sandhill Cranes, Wood Storks and Snowy Egrets. The
entire house has it's original hard wood floors, walls and high ceilings. Three bedrooms with river
views and two baths are upstairs including the master which has it's own in-suite bath. There's
another balcony on the second floor for even better views of the river. The main level has one
bedroom, one bath, two living rooms, an office and a large dine-in kitchen which has recently been
upgraded with all modern appliances and is fully stocked with everything you could possibly need to
entertain your guest. The wrap around porch on the kitchen overlooks the large 20X40
pool, hot tub (winter only) and a seeded pond. Pool area includes a large stainless steel gas BBQ,
table for 8, chairs, loungers, and umbrellas. On-site is a grass volleyball court and basketball backboard. Bring your boat and keep
it handy on the private dock (small boats only/shallow waters). Great fishing and kayaking right off the dock. Walk to the island out in front of the house in waste deep waters. The
Sebastian inlet to the Atlantic Ocean is only 1 mile from the end of the dock, directly across the
Indian River. On-site is some gear for fishing where you can catch your dinner of Trout, Red fish,
Snook or flounder in front of the house. Located 10 steps from the house is a generous cottage with water views that has a bedroom,
full bath, eat-in kitchen, living room, and a screened in porch with table and chairs. We also have a
fitness area with a TV attached to the garage which has weights, tread mill, inversion board, Ab
lounger and a universal gym. Available for your enjoyment are pool toys, floats, volleyball
net and balls for the pool and balls for the grass court, badmitten set, and basketball and also a croquet set for the front lawn.
Also there are numerous board games for the adults as well as the kids.
More photos upon request. Please be aware that photos do this place no justice. There's nothing that
can capture the feeling that you get when you walk through the door. All the rooms are very generous,
the views spectacular and the comfort level is very high.

Please be advised:

Although we reframe from allowing pets in our home, the house has NOT been "pet free".

beautiful home

June 19, 2012

the house was fantastic! The pool area with cabana was very enjoyable. The big gas grill was used to cook seafood and steaks. The stereo provided music inside and outside by the pool. The guest house was very accommodating. The dock extends a long way out into the Indian River. The kids fished on the dock. There was a tremendous of bait fish in the river. We even saw a huge sting ray that was about four feet wide. The house was built in the early 1900's and has been very tastefully updated. Given the opportunity we would defiantly go back.

Our big family vacation

April 23, 2012

The property was breathtaking. The accommodations aplenty. It was perfect! The only 'problem' we experienced was with respect to the cottage (In-law suite). I'm not sure it was prepped for our stay but we all managed to fit within the 'main' house so all was really good!!

Family Vacation 09'

August 3, 2009

Outstanding! Our family had a terrific time enjoying the beauty of FL thanks to our wonderful host. The house is perfect and exceeded our hopes for a luxury vacation home. We had plenty of space and every amenity. I can't say enough about the personality and attentiveness of our host; our satisfaction, privacy, and every need was of utmost importance. Reservations and payment were breeze and interactions were conducted professionally. We can't wait to book our next trip!

Paradise

My family had a great time spending the winter in paradise! Nice pool, incredible views and complete relaxation. We utilized the gym and were able to watch the space shuttle launch from the dock. Close to restaurants and shopping. We had company stay in the guest house. We highly recommend this for your Florida vacation!

Coming Home

December 11, 2008

The warmth, loveliness and hospitality of this historic riverfront home speak of loving families and baking bread. It has a quiet elegance and old world charm. All amenities are provided right down to sugar and spice. I was transported back to 'Old Key West' with Sebastian's own "Sloppy Joe's" just a short walk away! We will be coming next year, and many years to come. Many thanks to the owners who graciously open their amazing home!
