Parking & Access This home is one of two located on the property and is the home in the back, which offers ultimate peace and privacy. No areas are shared between the two homes including none of the outdoor spaces or parking, so all the areas featured are for your exclusive use. See google map image depicting property layout and access under "additional photos". There are two flexible and convenient parking and access options: - We recommend you arrive from the alley (called Alexia Pl on google maps) access to be able to park in the private 2-tandem car driveway for direct access to the home, which is also easier when unloading luggage. Go through the locked wooden gate (access code will be provided prior to check in) to enter your fully-gated outdoor space and to the side of the house to access the entrance door (doorbell camera present) with the convenient elock allowing flexible check in any time after 4pm. (Of note, taking the alley from 35th St allows for the easiest parking direction into the driveway) - There is also walkway access from the main street (Collier Ave) through the locked wooden gate (same access code as the back) to the right of the separate front home. The path takes you to your unit (you will find garbage and recycling bins along the way) and to the outdoor area and home entrance. Free street parking is available. Please note there is an additional guest fee for the 5th and 6th guest. Please ensure you have the correct number of guests when booking your stay to ensure there are no additional fees applied for undisclosed guests after check in, thanks for your understanding.
