Summary: Overall lovely property and area! Dog and family loved sitting out in the Adirondack chairs, playing fetch in the lawn, and watching movies in the family room. A cozy-feeling home with nicely renovated kitchen and upstairs bath. One recommendation for improvement would be more frequent deep cleaning: clean under/behind the furniture, dust cobwebs in the ceiling and floor corners, and wear a hair net? - numerous long black hairs all throughout the house.
