Experience the perfect blend of convenience and tranquility. Our spacious one-story home puts you minutes from everything, yet tucked away in a peaceful neighborhood.

Unwind in comfort with a brand-new kitchen and 1½ sparkling clean bathrooms, central heat and A/C, and a 65 Smart TV with immersive sound in the living room. Rest easy in 3 inviting bedrooms (1 King, 2 Queen beds), each with blackout curtains, ceiling fans, and thoughtful touches like nightstands, hangers, and luggage racks.

Enjoy plenty of driveway parking, Smart TVs in two bedrooms, full-sized washer and dryer, and several work-from-home spaces.

Relax on the expansive new deck, gather around the fire pit, or on the comfortable living room couch. And rest assured with a whole-home backup generator (the power in the area goes out during both the winter and summer due to storms, car accidents, and old infrastructure).

We have meticulously remodeled and appointed this one-story home to be your home-away-from-home while in the Glenville area.

We have tried to think of everything possible to make your stay comfortable and effortless.

****TAP or CLICK (maybe twice) ON A PHOTO TO ENLARGE IT AND SEE ADDITIONAL LISTING DETAILS WE HAVE PROVIDED.****

The living room is a spacious 21 feet wide with a large, comfortable sectional couch with a chaise lounge near the gas fireplace. The new forced-air heater and fireplace will keep you comfy, but you can also snuggle up with one of the several blankets from the blanket ladder while you are watching the 65 Smart TV with SONY sound bar.

Dim the recessed ceiling lights for added ambiance. The new central air conditioning system will keep you cool and comfortable in the summer or you can turn on the ceiling fan, if you prefer.

The whole home generator will keep everything running if the power goes out from winter or summer storms or other incidents.

Head into the kitchen that is fully stocked with pots, pans, bowls, cutting boards, baking sheets, cupcake tins, utensils, and other necessities.
- The kitchen has multiples of silverware, glasses, plates, bowls, serving bowls & platters, etc.
- We provide a wide selection of spices, oils, salt and pepper for you to use.
- We also will start you off with several coffees (regular, decaf, and flavored), teas, Hot chocolate, honey sticks, and sugar packets
- Our coffee bar has a drip coffee maker, a french press, a moka pot, and a milita cone (pour over).
- Additionally, there is a traditional kettle for the stove and an electric kettle.
- There are many kitchen utensils you would want or need to cook any meal.
- The kitchen has several other small appliances including a microwave, slow cooker, mini food processors, a waffle maker, pop up toaster, toaster oven (large enough to hold an 8x8 casserole dish), blender, mixer, rice cooker, etc.
- aluminum foil, plastic wrap, baggies, parchment paper, etc

All three bedrooms have been finished with nightstands on both sides; plus luggage racks, laundry baskets, and hangers in each closet. Beds have freshly laundered linens, a blanket, and comforter/quilt. There are extra blankets in each bedroom closet and additional blankets/quilts are staged around the house, should you desire them.

Each bedroom has blackout curtains and a ceiling fan with light to further customize your comfort. Additionally, each bedroom has a full length mirror and a close up mirror so you don't need to crowd the bathrooms.

The full bathroom is stocked with bath towels, hair/hand towels, and wash clothes. Additionally, we provide paper towels, cotton balls, cotton swabs, tooth floss sticks, bar soap, air freshener spray, and a hair dryer. The shower has shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and bar soap.

The front closet has books, games, and puzzles for you to enjoy. There is also a standard vacuum, a battery powered stick vacuum, a broom, dry mop, dust pan, etc in case you have a spill that you need to tend to.

There are three desk areas for work, puzzle making, makeup application, etc. (Living room, Bedroom #2, Bedroom #3)

We have left extra:
- Paper towels
- Toilet paper
- Garbage bags
- Towels
- Blankets
- Pillows
- etc.

We provide a house manual with lots of information including:
- where things are in the house
- commonly asked questions like When is Garbage Day
- the closest place for coffee, non-chain coffee shops nearby, big coffee nearby
- where things are in town
- recommendations on stores and restaurants
- etc.

During the spring/summer/fall, we might have to perform landscaping activity during your stay. We will do our best to arrange a convenient time. Lawn clean up takes between 1 and 4 hours. (The town is particular so we cannot necessarily wait until the house is empty).

In the winter months, we do not provide snow removal service, but there will be shovels in the breezeway and can provide phone numbers to plow services, if needed. We also provide salt for the stairs and walkways.

The house is near a small municipal airport that also is the home to Stratton Air National Guard base so there are often small planes flying overhead and large military planes over the main part of town.

There are many trains that run through Glenville so low horns can be heard in the background.

Our fire department has a horn that alerts the volunteers to an event. Don't worry if you hear it! All is well.

Have any questions Want to know if a specific amenity is in the house We have provided a house manual for self-service, but we hope that you will message us if you have any questions!

9/2025 We replaced and expanded the Deck:
In nice weather, there is a table and chairs on the back deck. Down one set of steps is a gas grill. Down the other set of stairs is the fire pit and 6 Adirondack style chairs (each with a cup holder and a phone holder). The yard is large and level.

8/2025 We replaced and expanded the driveway and walkway to the door:
The driveway now will hold up to 6 vehicles and the walkway to the entrance door is now wider and smooth.

6/2024 We added a whole house generator:
Glenville notoriously has an unstable electrical grid during summer and winter storms. You can book this house with confidence knowing that if power in the neighborhood goes out, within about 45 seconds, the power to the entire home will resume allowing the heater, air conditioning, lights, TV, refrigerator, etc, to continue to run.

    Houses are hard to find in this area. Many are outdated and musty. This house is sparkling clean and outfitted with everything you will need for an enjoyable stay. We had local family come here to gather and eat. There was ample space and again all the things you might need during your stay.

    The host Gena was immediately responsive to any questions. The house itself was nicely redone and immaculately clean. Very nicely equipped for cooking in or grilling including oils and spices. Highly recommend.

    I spent a long weekend with my adult children celebrating an early Christmas at Gena's VRBO home. We were so happy with the home, the kitchen in particular was very impressive with beautiful appliances, every kitchen tool we needed, and extras like spices, a coffee bar, and vast counter space. We cooked many meals and loved having so much space. The beds were comfortable, there were more than enough towels, and the sectional was perfect for morning coffee chats, evening movies, and to root for the Buffalo Bills! Gena had the home decorated for Christmas inside and out. I have rented many VRBO's over the years and this one stands head and shoulders above the rest. We are already planning another gathering soon. Thank you, Gena, for being such an outstanding host!

    We had a baseball tournament in the area for my 16y/o son and stayed here with another parent and their son. From the first point of contact with owners this was a great choice. The home is cute, comfortable and they have been extremely thoughtful on all the offerings. The kids played wiffle ball in the yard everyday and were so happy to have a home to come back to after each game. Great neighborhood and literally 5-30 minutes from anywhere. The kitchen is completely equipped with everything along with the bathrooms. If back in the area again will definitely try to book this home. Thank you for a great stay! Highly recommend.

    Husband, wife, 2 teens, and my MIL stayed here for a family memorial service. The layout was perfect. We even had more family over for dinner and we were all very comfortable. Super convenient to groceries and whatever else we needed. It was a great, quiet neighborhood that made for very pleasant morning walks. The host was very responsive. Thanks for everything!
