"Shotgun" apartment set of rooms attached to the main house. As you come into the space through the front door you are in the bedroom. (Photo from the listing was taken from the kitchen looking towards the front door.) Then there is a kind of sitting room with 2 couches facing each other (2nd futon couch not shown in listing photo), and the kitchen is at the end of the house looking out onto the backyard, and the neighbor's huge parking lot. (The bathroom is off the sitting room, behind the kitchen.)
The plusses:
1. Off street parking in front of the garage behind the main house
2. Convenient location
3. Kitchen has a stove, which is why we choose this space.
4. Chickens in the backyard add a nice touch to the big city environment.
5. Full equipped large bathroom with shower and all the amenities (body soap, shampoo, rinse, thick towels.)
6. Check-in is super easy; host is onsite since the space is attached to the main house.
Adjustments to expectations (All my fault since the house is clearly listed as a Craftsman.)
1. House is a little older than anticipated and has that old house muskiness
2. Furniture in the house is also older, which is certainly part of the charm and muskiness.
