The home was an excellent place to host my 40th birthday weekend celebration with friends. The decor was beautiful and matched the pictures in the listing. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful and the driveway was cleared of snow when we arrived. Many of my guests commented on how lovely the home was and the upstairs living room was a cozy spot to gather, eat snacks, and chat with everyone. The only surprise was an open space in the kitchen leading downstairs into the basement that was covered with insulation, plywood, and carpet. We had to do a little rearranging of the insulation and carpet prior to guests arriving to make it less of an eyesore. Everything else was as expected and we had an excellent stay!
