About this property

Artsy Jazz House Retreat w/ Zen Garden & Hot Tub

  • This 100-year-old treasure is a celebration of life, art, cooking and music. Every corner tells a story through colorful hand-painted tiles, vibrant artwork, musical artifacts, and an atmosphere that practically hums with positive energy. The front room features an amazing speaker and Bluetooth system, perfect for setting your own soundtrack to morning coffee or evening wind-down. This house is an original Sears Roebuck catalogue house!

    Century-old jazz house in historic East Hill meets legendary Zen Garden sanctuary. 2BR/1BA eclectic home bursting with colorful art, music & soul. Kitchen opens to wooden porch & tropical paradise: hot tub, outdoor shower, covered grill, lush pathways. Walk to coffee shops/restaurants, short drive to beaches.
    Pet paradise! the backyard is fenced, there is plenty of safe walking areas in the neighborhood. There are also pet parks close by
    This house is not cookie-cutter perfect—it is joyfully authentic and filled with good vibes and character!

    Guests rave: "therapeutic," "peaceful retreat," "magical." Where strangers become friends & stress melts away.
    Tommy's 450+ 5-star legacy now led by local, responsive SuperHost Cathy.

The house was darling - clean, vintage and eclectic. It was comfortable and had most everything we needed. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking seafood from joe patti's and the beds were very comfortable. There were nice wide front and back porches and the backyard was an oasis. The location can't be beat in the middle of east hill just off 12th avenue with a charming cafe and large publix grocery within walking distance. The beach road and downtown are just a few minutes away.

We've always enjoyed visits to Pensacola, the area is slow paced, close to the beach, and easy to get around with walkable communities. This house sits in a beautiful community and has a park in walking distance with a great off leash dog park/swim. The interior is very kitschy and the kitchen is well appointed and usable. The miniature dishwasher takes some getting used to but does work fairly well. The garden does look like it was started well intended but has fallen into neglect. The beds and planters are being overrun with vines and weeds, It'd be well worth it to get a gardener in there once a quarter to keep things minded. Also the master bed is listed as being a king but it isn't, and the hot water in the bathroom is not consistent and I never managed to get hot water to come out for more than 3 minutes at a time. The reservation we made was through VRBO, which has shared space requirements for this, and the adjoining listing (Tommys Zen Garden Cottage) conveniently doesn't disclose on that website. So if you bring a dog to either, or expect to have the back yard to yourself, you will be disappointed.
