Scenic Solitude Hosted by St James Vacation Homes
Welcome to Scenic Solitude!
Situated on a corner lot and shaded by surrounding pines, Scenic Solitude faces the Great Waters driving range (just across the street) for unique front porch views that are favorites among golfers and those who appreciate the soft light of sundown. Among the natural beauty and just steps from another of our most popular vacation rentals sits Scenic Solitude; a newly renovated 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath cottage whose large front porch is just the beginning of a delightful 2-story retreat that exudes Southern charm. This home is an ideal getaway as a standalone property or as a dual reservation for groups wanting to occupy both cottages with both homes being neighbors (quite literally).
First Level
Scenic Solitude has a tastefully renovated open floor plan with hardwood details, abundant natural sunlight, warm colors and textures, and plenty of places for small or large crowds to kick back. The living room provides ample seating with a sofa, loveseat, and armchair. A nearby reading nook houses books and board games, but the Netflix junkies won't feel neglected with an oversized wall-mounted flatscreen TV anchoring the room and providing plenty of cable and streaming options.
The kitchen is highlighted by abundant counter space, cabinet storage, and all new stainless-steel appliances including a side-by-side refrigerator/freezer, dishwasher, stovetop oven, and microwave. Two coffee makers are on standby for your favorite drip or K-pod brew. Two barstools wait for occupants, and a farmhouse-inspired dining table with seating for 8 beckons mealtime conversation.
Enjoy dining on the full-length screened deck outfitted with an outdoor dining table and 6 chairs, propane grill, wall mounted flatscreen TV, patio chairs, and new cushioned outdoor seating. The screened deck is a favorite for early birds, night owls, and sun-kissed kids who aren't quite ready to retire for the day.
The master suite, located on the main level, also offers access to the back deck and is furnished with a king bed, night tables, luggage racks, dresser, wall-mounted flatscreen TV, and walk-in closet with floor-to-ceiling custom shelving. The ensuite bathroom has a large vanity for extra storage, soaking tub, and step-in tiled shower with detachable rain shower head. Also on the main level are a laundry closet with a full-size washer and dryer and a powder room just off the foyer.
Second Level
Upstairs on the second level guests will be greeted with two guest bedrooms with rare surprises: double queen beds in each room for a sleeping capacity of 8!
In addition to plush bedding, each room is also detailed with a dresser, luggage racks, large windows, wall-mounted flatscreen TV, and storage closet.
Two bathrooms – one ensuite and one shared – come with plenty of bath linens and offer under sink storage and step-in shower or shower-tub combo. Kids and teens will appreciate this space to call their own, and parents will enjoy having their own retreat downstairs!
With so much comfort inside and so much to do right outside your door, you may not have much reason to leave your home-away-from-home! However, if you are curious to check out local life, there are plenty of places to explore right outside the gates. Harmony Crossing is replete with boutiques and plenty of dine-in and take-out meal options. Travel north on Highway 44 to stock up at Publix, enjoy breakfast at Café 44, or try one of the blends from PJ's Coffee of New Orleans. We also recommend visiting the historic districts of downtown Eatonton and downtown Greensboro. Both have mom-and-pop cafes, restaurants, and retail stores that are locally owned and operated. Be sure to check out the local events, festivals, and farmer's markets, too!
