“The door of the little house opened, and a warm glow flickered out into the dusk. “Welcome home,” Gilbert whispered, and hand in hand they stepped over the threshold of their house of dreams.”

-from “Anne’s House of Dreams”

Anne's House of Dreams, the newest addition to the Blue Belle Inn, is located a few feet to the north of the main house. 

The house, which was built in 1891, has been totally rebuilt from the ground up to offer a perfect balance of old and new, with new wiring, air-conditioning and heat, and state of the art bathroom and kitchen facilities. 

The house has large sunny windows, and two window seats that add architectural interest to the inside and exterior of the house. Quaint, period gingerbread highlights the exterior, which is roofed with green shakes in keeping with the Anne of Green Gables theme, and painted a medium mauve, with wineberry accents and dark green doors.

The house faces west, and is handicap accessible from the southeast side of the house via a ramp that leads to a deck on the southeast corner of the house. The deck wraps around the back of the house; a separate stairway leads to the second floor, where there is a small balcony and an exterior entrance to the second floor. The first and second floors may be rented separately or as one spacious unit that sleeps 6 to 8, with two bathrooms.

The first floor of the house, called Four Winds, has solid Brazilian cherry floors, cherry doors and trim, two window seats, and a lovely oak kitchen furnished with dishes, cooking and baking pans, a dishwasher, a self-cleaning electric range, a refrigerator with an icemaker, a microwave, desk, and dining room table. 

The first floor bathroom features a romantic double shower with an Italian quarry tile floor and walls. The shower is fully handicap accessible, with a bench and an adjustable height showerhead. A stacked washer and dryer is also present for use by guests and staff.

The living room has two full-sized, solid cherry, futons with plush, 8” thick mattresses for comfortable seating during the day, and sleeping for 2 to 4 at night. The futons are specially made, front loading, wall-hugger models made for easy conversion from sofa to bed. We are happy to have one or both units made into beds upon check-in, but they will be set up for easy conversion at bedtime. The rooms are decorated in subtle shades of moss green, cherry wine, butterscotch, dusty blue, and plum with custom window treatments and coverlets.

There are two bedrooms on the second floor, called Green Gables, both with wood floors and area rugs. The master suite has a plush, pillow-topped, king size bed with a handmade quilt with appliquéd hearts and antique buttons, a comfortable seating area, a spacious closet, and a TV/DVD/VCR. 

The second bedroom has two twin beds, and is decorated with handmade quilts in blue and pink, with one side for a boy and the other for a girl. (While the first and second floors of the house may be rented separately, the two bedrooms on the second floor will only be rented to one party for privacy.)

The spacious second floor bathroom has a pedestal sink, and a large, heart-shaped, corner whirlpool for two with a hand held shower sprayer. The whirlpool is trimmed with granite, with a black and white tiled floor.
