Pet Friendly Beachside Artist's Mid-Century Modern Bungalow
Now exhale and relax! Simple and tasteful open plan living. Head into the garage with your remote and zip yourself into a paradisiacal setting. 1959 bungalow was built with a true understanding of cross ventilation. The beach is within comfortable walking distance and when the waves are kicking the ocean can be heard from the back yard and some rooms of the house (with open windows). The pergola in the backyard has night lighting and tiki torches and offers the opportunity of al fresco dining. The neighborhood is quiet with mostly long-term residents. IAMART Beach Bungalow is ideal for a couple and you're welcome to bring your four legged offspring! One month minimum stay.
From check in to check out, we had a wonderful time at this comfortable home.
We loved the artwork, backyard and close proximity to great restaurants and the beach. Rachel was a great host.
I have been coming to Ormand Beach for years. The location is perfect. We experienced the Daytona 500, Bike Week and Detroit tigers Spring Training in the month I was there. The "Artists Studio" is nice could use a little update, a deep cleaning and some repairs.Otherwise myself and my dog enjoyed our time. The host even recommended a dog sitter, which worked out great on two separate occasions.
This property was so well equipped that it took us a while to remember where everything was kept. Walking distance to the beach and just a short drive to the dog beach. Excellent communications with owner.
First, Rachel is a gracious, caring and wonderful host. She replies instantly to any request and need. The house was spotless and so decorated with Rachel's own paintings which gave it a totally bohemian artistic vibe. Access was like unlocking your own front door. There was absolutely no intrusions by anyone and the privacy amazing. Enjoy the back yard with chairs and table, a cardinal waking you each morning and going for food and supplies is 2 minutes away. Just North of Daytona makes it so different and not at all touristy. Do yourself a solid and book Rachel's beach home!Ed and Joy
We were very pleased with this charming bungalow. Between the pretty backyard, the wind chimes, and the owner's art work and influence, we found it to be peaceful and enjoyable. The owner was very responsive and pleasant and the home had many necessary supplies. It's a great location in a quiet neighborhood not far from the beach and grocery store.
I am an experimental mixed media artist with a background in interior design; therefore I also enjoy creating interesting living spaces. My neighbor, Chester Perkowski translates waste styrofoam into an art medium. Together we address the challenge of creating the "Recovery Collection" from this newfangled medium. I own two other properties, "Grace Cottage Retreat" in De Leon Springs, FL and my recent baby, "Firefly Farmhouse" in Winchester, TN where I have family roots.
The personality of the house and neighbors along with the proximity to the beach drew me to this place. I go back to Spring Break days in Ormond Beach, back when the old Ormond Hotel was still standing. Even then Daytona was a bit much. Ormond is a smaller and quieter town. There are some nice cultural features such as the Casements and Ormond Memorial Art Museum and Gardens. It's a good niche!
Walk to beach. Unique beach access and (2) parking spaces assigned to residents of our street. Close to river, Fortunato Park and "the loop". Close to fresh seafood restaurants. Quiet and friendly neighborhood. Easy day-trips to Orlando, Daytona, St. Augustine and more.
