Reviewer Comments:
There are many things to love about this house. The views are fantastic, the master bedroom is wonderful, and the upstairs layout with open living, dining, and kitchen space is great. With that said, this house had its issues. We know that ants are an issue during the winter, but they were everywhere in the kitchen, whether we left food out or not. There were a couple ant baits in various places throughout the house, but did not seem to be a concerted effort to deal with the issue. The lighting in the house could use a serious update - the lighting was old and dim, and especially in the kitchen and the bedrooms, it just felt very dark in the house. There were no bedside lights in a downstairs bedroom and it was like a cave in there. The fan for the oven sometimes took hours to go off - it was still going one morning after turning off the oven the night before for dinner. The heat system was older and felt pretty uneven, with the upstairs quite warm and the downstairs bedrooms pretty cold. Overall, it feels like this house was built a while ago, and hasn't really been updated in a long while, except for little things here and there. It could really use a good once over to some of the main systems (lighting and heat). And the ant issue was definitely more than an annoyance. Overall, while we'd love to stay in this house again for the views, location, and upstairs living space, I think we'll probably look elsewhere unless/until the owner decides to give it some more love and attention.
