We chose this condo because it seemed ideal to what we wanted and once we saw it and stayed there for a week, it managed to EXCEED all our expectations!
When searching for a rental, our criteria was to find a nice, newer place to fit 2 couples comfortably and privately, be close to our friends staying on Commercial Street, and A/C was a must. The two parking spots were a major plus!
The condo’s layout is perfectly set up for privacy. The two bedrooms are on opposite sides of the place and the bathrooms back up into one another. Every room is very clean, updated, and nicely decorated. The kitchen is great for cooking/entertaining. The living room is an open space for everyone to sit comfortably.
Located on Bradford Street, it is only one block from Commercial Street and a very close walk to all the restaurants, shops and the beach. We stayed in a nice place on Commercial the year prior but we found it to be too loud at night with the activity on the street. Bradford definitely has traffic and it gets busy since the condo is located on an intersection, but comparatively speaking, this location is much quieter than Commercial and inside the condo it is very quiet where you don’t realize it’s louder outside. The balcony is a major plus. It extends the entire front of the building and the ½ shaded, ½ non-shaded areas were just perfect. We could lie out in the sun or relax and eat under the umbrella and just people watch.
As mentioned, we also wanted A/C, preferably central A/C, which it had. There are ceiling fans in the vaulted living room that made it very comfortable and sometimes even chilly where you had to turn up the a/c (we left it on average at 72).
Another perk is the parking spaces! Not only is it parking for two cars, but it was also located right outside of the condo so we could easily access and leave if we wanted to, unlike many parking arrangements for other rentals. We were able to drive to the grocery store rather than hauling our bags back on our bikes as in previous years and we also packed up our car and drove to Racepoint Beach for the day. Farland Provisions is also a great mini-market below the condo and it surprisingly had a lot of things we needed, including delicious sandwiches.
Lastly, the owner is very nice and easy to deal with and he responded promptly to my emails. Overall, we highly recommend the place. It has all the conveniences of your own apartment while being right in the heart of PTown.
