Pros:
Location was great. Easy to get to all the attractions like the zoo and beaches. And there’s a driveway to park which is great because street parking in the neighborhood would have been very difficult.
The neighborhood itself is really cute, we took a walk around and it has some coffee shops and we stumbled into a cheesecake spot which was yummy.
Cons:
The inaccuracy of the photos for the backyard was a bummer and they should be updated. The backyard is now half the size and all rocks, which was a total bummer because the image of the large backyard with grass in the listing was one of the main selling points of us choosing this house so our kids could play back there while we BBQd for the holiday.
The floors were also really dirty/dusty. We don’t wear shoes/socks in our house, but we had to wear socks the entire time at this house so our feet wouldn’t get dirty. And our 7 month old is learning to crawl but we couldn’t put him on the floor because he ended up being a human mop and collecting dust all over his clothes and then trying to eat it. You know how babies love putting everything in the mouths.
Bathroom note:
Bathroom is pretty tiny and laid out a little weird. The door swings in and leaves little room to shimmy in between the door and sink. And then the toilet is positioned so when you sit on it your knees basically hit the sink. I’m only 5’6” and my knees were hitting the sink when I sat on the toilet. We’re not saying to avoid this place because of the bathroom, but it did kind of take all of us by surprise because the angle of the photos didn’t really show the true size/layout and all 4 of us adults had our own difficulties with the size/layout of the bathroom.
