This house was a really good fit for us.! One thing that was very welcome was the basement area. Our son, who is very into the trumpet, was able to practice there and we were able to do another activity upstairs without having a major noise component --even though he plays well :). All the hooks are really useful. The backyard is really lovely--enjoyed watching the squirrels and bluejays in the morning. The location of this house is excellent--both for it's proximity to Division St. and Clinton St. (which you can walk to), as well as its proximity to downtown Portland (short drive). Beds were very comfy. Nice place in general!
