I am sad to write a bad review as my entire family was very much looking forward to staying here. While any property that has been in existence for over two centuries is sure to have its faults, beware that this house has many more than one would expect and does not match its description in the listing. It is dirty and in need of major repairs, both of which completely ruin what could otherwise be a charming historic property. The woodwork from the portico to the window sills is rotting and the paint peeling. The second bathroom on the second floor, as stated in the listing, needs a complete remodel. The kitchen is so dirty that not only did we not cook in it but we didn't even make coffee in the morning. The backyard could be a lovely place to rest but is also poorly maintained; chair cushions are strewn around the flower beds, making them wet and muddy, and a large section of the fencing has collapsed, leaving the yard feeling uncomfortably exposed. In sum, the only thing going for this property is its location on College Hill.
