Welcome to Firefly Garden!
Ever wondered what an urban oasis could be like? Just a mile from Midtown Mall you turn off Hargrove Road into a forest of giant oaks to find a historic 1920’s farmhouse lovingly restored and surrounded by lush gardens with handcrafted greenhouse and koi fish pond.
Step up to the massive front door with custom painted glass and into a formal entry with crystal chandelier and oriental carpets. Enter into the open plan kitchen dining and living room with lots of comfy seating to watch TV or hang out with the chefs in the fully equipped kitchen.
Venture further to find three inviting bedrooms on the main floor. The primary bedroom features a four-poster queen bed with ornamental wood fretwork and an en-suite bath that includes a large Jacuzzi tub with a shower. The second bedroom offers a charming brass queen bed and is conveniently located next to a half bath. The third bedroom, also with a four-poster queen bed, shares access to a hall bathroom with a tub/shower combination. Upstairs, you’ll find a spacious fourth bedroom with both a full Jenny Lind bed and a queen bed, offering beautiful views of the garden. This level also includes a cozy sitting room/library and a private bathroom with a stand-up shower. Firefly Garden comfortably sleeps up to 8 adults, plus children, for a total of 10 guests.
Hang out with friends and family on the large covered porch with party lights or step out onto the patio to enjoy the fire pit or grill up some dinner.
