The Colorful Cottage- Historic Gem Near Downtown

Experience the charm of this beautifully restored early 1900s home in Tipp City, where historic character blends seamlessly with modern amenities. Conveniently located just a half mile walk from downtown, you’ll have easy access to unique shops, local dining, and community events. Perfect for a weekend getaway, family gathering, or peaceful retreat, The Colorful Cottage offers a delightful blend of history, charm, and comfort.

The first floor features a cozy living room, bedroom with a queen size bed, full bathroom, laundry room, a dining nook with a coffee bar, and a spacious kitchen. Upstairs you will find a second bedroom with a full size bed, a focused workspace, a full bathroom, and a game room, featuring a convertible mini ping pong/pool table and a dart board. Please note that the staircase leading to the upper level is steeper than a typical staircase.

Guests will have access to the entire home and yard, except for two locked closets and the shed.

Other things to note: There’s a nearby train track, and trains are required to sound their horns, even during the night. We provide earplugs for light sleepers!
