Spacious House in the Heart of Melbourne - 5 miles from beaches

This large home is convenient to everything Melbourne has to offer. Less than a mile from F.I.T. and Historic Downtown Melbourne Shopping and Dining District. Two miles from Melbourne International Airport. Easy, 4-mile drive to the beach. The house is split-level, providing guests with plenty of elbow room. It features Old Florida Architecture, yet has been updated inside. There are five bedrooms. Three and a half baths. There's a wood-burning fireplace and a large, fenced in backyard. This portion of the street is deliberately unpaved to keep cut-through traffic to a minimum. A lovely park playground and Crane Creek are a two-block walk from the house. Master bedroom has a King-sized bed and private bath. An additional room at the opposite room of the house also has its own private bath and full-sized bed - perfect if you're traveling with your teen and need space. Bedrooms number three and four each have a Queen bed; bedroom number five has one twin bed. Three full bathrooms, each with shower (there are no tubs in the house). Additional half-bath on main floor for your convenience. Florida Tech's gorgeous Botanical Gardens are less than a mile away. *If you're seeking a comfortable, sprawling house that's conveniently in the Heart of Melbourne, this is the one.

Close to beach

The house was very clean and much bigger than we expected. Plenty of room for two families of four. Very comfy couch and the king bed was excellent. Everyone seemed to sleep well. Some noise from traffic but not enough to keep anyone up or interfere with sleep. Easy 10 minute drive to the beach.

Great for big families!

The size was perfect for our party of 6 and the layout allowed us to put the kids to sleep with no worry of waking them up if the adults stayed up late or had company. The location is in a nice neighborhood close to the old downtown area of Melbourne, and it’s a short 5-10 minute drive to the beach. Highly recommended! Bonus points for the mango tree out back with fresh fruit for the picking!

Perfect location for the holiday!

We rented this property over the Christmas holiday. It was a perfect location for our extended family: nice large family room and kitchen, and bedrooms and bathrooms allowed for privacy. Kitchen was stocked with essentials, and grocery stores were just a few minutes away. Communication with the host was superb, with timely emails (proactive and responsive), and we appreciated her attention to detail. Everything was perfect! Highly recommend this home!

This was our second time staying at this spacious home.

This home was the perfect space for me and my staff while in town for business. Mandy was an amazing host who was so kind and thoughtful. There were lots of notes and goodies welcoming us which made us feel right at home. This was our second time booking this house, and I would book again in a heartbeat. Mandy paid attention to every detail, and the house was stocked with everything we needed...and then some! Thank you again for everything you did to make our stay fabulous!

Family gathering

Our family traveled from 3 different states to gather together for my mother’s Celebration of Life. The Greenway home was perfect for our family of 8 that stayed in the home, with other family joining us for meals and the service preparations, we had 16 in the home with plenty of room, seating, kitchen prep space and bathrooms. Many was awesome to work with and was in touch to ensure we had everything we might need. We will definitely stay here again, when a family gathering is happening.

Great family stay

Five adult family members enjoyed the spacious Greenway house. Nice location for walks to town or the FIT campus. Easy access to I95. The kitchen had everything we needed for meals during our 3 week stay. Beds were all comfortable and wifi was good for remote working . There are nice private patio areas but we had cool weather in January so did not use it much. The showers were all step in and had plenty of hot water. We appreciated Mandy’s great communication and warm welcome. She also recommended good restaurants Skewers and Coconut Cafe which we enjoyed. Many extras such as soaps, dishwasher pods, sponge and shampoo made it very nice.

Beautiful home! Great hospitality! Excellent communication!

Thank you Mandy for your hospitality allowing our team to stay in your impeccable home! This large house was perfect for us to spread out and relax after a long day at work! There were snacks and even fresh fruit for us upon our arrival along with a nice note. What a way to make us feel welcome!! You thought of everything right down to first aid supplies and lantern in the event of a power outage! These little touches really made us feel right at home! We visit Melbourne a few times a year, and would love to return if openings are available. Thank you again for everything!

Super cool mix of 1957 and 2022!

Love this house- It is in the perfect neighborhood, large quiet lot near causeway to the barrier island:) It has 5 lovely bedrooms and a large beautiful new kitchen! Open living room with fabulous TV for viewing your vacation pictures, Awesome stone fireplace den, also open. There were 6 of us, including a handicapped gramma. Owner was helpful in letting us mail the things we needed, and communicated every time we needed her! If you are a family that likes to do stuff together, and eat out, and come home to comfort, this is a sweeeet choice! No pool, but huge yard and super cool sunken patio. All the beds were comfy! The pillows high quality and a mix of soft- firm:) The bedrooms well appointed remodeled beautifully with nice colors and fabrics etc! The washer/dryer set is really great! AC works well! Furniture is completely comfortable! It is a great gathering place.. This kitchen while BEAUTIFUL, is minimally Stocked for vacationers, and not elaborate dinners. So plan accordingly, if you plan to make anything in very large amounts . I would hope to stay here again!

Beautiful, comfortable house!

This house was perfect for us! There were 6 ladies celebrating a 65th birthday. Very nice neighborhood and plenty of parking. I had lots of questions for Mandy regarding the house and the Melbourne area. She kindly took the time to suggest restaurants and things to do. Loved the location being so close to downtown. We went to an Escape Room and it was so much fun! We only stayed for 2 nights and wish we could have stayed longer! I highly recommend this lovely, clean and comfortable house! Thank you, Mandy!!!
