The master bedroom is split into a up/down loft with a king-sized bed on the bottom in a master compartment, that also enjoys a small sitting area and a cutting edge SONY LED TV. Watch movies from your bed, or cozy up for a conversation in the two sitting chairs at the foot of the bed while winding-down your evening.There is a loft immediately above the master compartment with a soaring skylight, queen sized bed and loveseat that is accessible by a ladder/vertical stair. The loft floor squeeks a bit in spots, but is very cozy and feels like an escape in the clouds with a high-end Tuft and Needle mattress, high-thread count sheets, comfy pillows and blankets. Our home is named after this loft which we think of as the “The Owl’s Nest” perched above the unit. The skylight above the loft is a large, historic feature that has a ton of character.
