Ginny and Mark's house was a very nice surprise. It was a new listing so there were no reviews. Also, the house was bought by them about 6 months ago and the google maps images of the old place were not flattering. However, Ginny and Mark have put a lot of work into it and it has paid off!
The inside of the house was very spacious. More so than the pictures show. The finishings were immaculate, from the kitchen counters to the decorations on the walls. The 3 rooms were big and very comfortable. There were fresh new designer sheets and the towels were soft and new as well. There was a brand new dish washer, microwave, washer and dryer. The master bedroom and the living room has full cable and big TVs.
The backyard was big and my boys liked to play in the grass. However, there was a big new sophisticated septic tank that I needed to keep them off of. There was a backyard patio set with 6 chairs and table. The grill was brand new!
The location was great. There is a Rite Aid, Dunkin and a produce market all within a 5 min walk. There is a public park with a playground and huge fields that took about 7 min to walk to. Also, there is a small beach down the street that was perfect to bring my kids to. It was part of the University of RI Oceanography campus and free for everyone. It's a 2 min drive but I walked a couple times and it took 15 min.
All and all a great house with great hosts!
