The place felt secure, in a cute neighborhood walking distance to downtown Claremont and schools. I enjoyed the garden. I grew up in Claremont and the place had an authentic feel. It was helpful to know about the driveway approach in advance but I did not have trouble getting in and out or leaving enough space for the neighbor, nor did I find the house noisy (yes, some traffic on Arrow can be heard but it was otherwise very quiet and peaceful).
