GREAT location; home needs maintenance
The location of this property is absolutely AMAZING for a family in Livingston for the 4th of July because it is only 1/2 block from the parade route and within walking distance to the entire downtown area with its restaurants, bars, and shops.
The house, however, needs some general maintenance. The bathrooms were very clean which is important, but these were the problems we encountered: 1) there were two inoperable smoke detectors in the bedrooms, one without a battery and the other missing completely, 2) there was a bird’s nest in the front porch light making it inoperable as leaving it on would have been a fire hazard, 3) overgrown weeds were everywhere in the rock yard, 4) the dishwasher would not drain due to its being plugged so it leaked, thus being inoperable, 5) the stairway and kitchen floor were not very clean. The stairs looked like they hadn’t been cleaned for a long time, and 6) the scatter rugs throughout the house were very dirty with stains and ground in dirt. They really need to be replaced.
We communicated our concerns about the dishwasher and smoke detectors to the property manager, but nothing was done during our visit. The other items were communicated to the property manager after we left with the hope that they will be fixed as we really do love the location of the house and its layout for a big group, but we did not receive any response at all to our suggestions for improvement.
