The listing photos suggest that entry to the home would be via the "cottage-like" front door facing the side yard. This is untrue. The basement apartment door is actually the door that appears at the end of the driveway.

The first room is the kitchen; was probably the garage at one time. The bedroom/living/bathroom area is then beyond which could have been the basement prior to renovation. That area is approx 6 ft below grade.

There were no windows in the bedroom other than the floor to ceiling French doors that open to an "egress pit" which could prove somewhat challenging for some if needed.

The photos suggested that the French doors open to the backyard; they do, yet it's only for emergency egress. One must walk down the driveway and then along the sidewalk and up steps along the side of the house to the backyard.

A lack of ventilation was noted as we entered the apartment. There is no screen on the one small bathroom window. Leaving the French doors open for air during sleep time presented a security issue. Also, we kept the shades down to prevent a line of sight from the backyard as workers were performing renovation on an extension to the house. All of this caused a somewhat claustrophobic affect.
