Private Guesthouse w/Kitchen - Minutes from Uptown
Welcome to The Blue Door on Mulberry! This private guesthouse is on a centrally-located lot at the front of Martinsville’s Mulberry neighborhood. Maintain your sense of privacy while still being close to everything Martinsville has to offer. The property is less than 5 mins from the Martinsville Uptown District, under 10 mins to the Martinsville Speedway, under 4 mins to the SOVA Hospital, and walking distance to the Virginia Museum of Natural History, Piedmont Arts, and more! This space was lovingly renovated and its highlights include: a kitchen for cooking meals, a dining area for two, a 50” Smart TV with steaming, a dedicated workspace w/ coffee, and a stunning black-and-white bathroom. The guesthouse is tucked away at the back of a large lot behind a main house so it offers plenty of privacy. You’ll have a dedicated parking spot with your own separate entrance to come and go as you please. The lot does back up to the woods and if you’re lucky you might just see a family of deer in the early mornings! Please Note: The guest house is located on the second floor of a detached garage, so taking a small set of stairs is required to access the unit. Please keep this in mind if you have any mobility concerns related to stairways. You will access the guest house by driving through a long shared driveway that is in between two houses. We are the red brick house to the left of the driveway. You won’t see us unless you need us. We are generally very hands-off hosts, but we can be available if you need assistance with something related to your stay.
During your stay at this holiday home, you're just a quick walk from Piedmont Arts. A kitchen and a TV are available in the holiday home.

Great Stay
This was a lovely little stay for us. We were traveling with our dog, so we needed somewhere to accommodate us. I would say this place is a bit more pet tolerant than pet friendly, but we were able to make it work. It was clean, efficient, and cute to boot. As others said, the stairs are a bit steeper than expected, but not unmanageable.

Excellent stay!
Had a great stay at Morgan's place! The guest house was clean, had everything we needed, and was a great size for two people. Morgan was really communicative and checking in/out was a breeze. We took a day trip to Hanging Rock State Park, which was less than an hours drive away. Got to enjoy the exhibit at Piedmont Arts (walking distance) and the Food Lion down the street was convenient. Highly recommend!

Guest suite
It was quiet and well appointed. Steep steps to apartment but it was nice.
If I’m in the area, I definitely want to stay here again! Very cozy, quiet and clean space for a few or many days! I really enjoyed it!

Cute little apartment over garage
We were in town looking at properties. The apartment was super cute and suited us just fine. Morgan has the apartment decorated nicely and it was clean. I was a little surprised to see the steep steps that lead to the apartment….it probably mentioned it in the description, but I overlooked it. Folks need to be aware that there are steps that lead up to the apartment. We enjoyed walking thru the neighborhood. There is a great park right down the road where we walked our pup. Morgan was very responsive and helpful….you MUST check out her coffee shop, The Ground Floor!!!! So fun with live music, food and great coffee!!

Perfect stay
I absolutely enjoyed my stay! The unit is small, but has every necessity covered.
The kitchen has everything needed to prepare a meal (pots, pans, dishes, glassware, flatware, etc. ) The bathroom was equipped with a nice shower, toiletries and hair dryer. A comfortable bed with soft linens made for a pleasant night's sleep.
