Glenn, the location tends to be the first thing people notice, and having everything you might need already on hand makes it easy to settle in without a second thought. Hope the area draws you back sometime.

lovely home, only reason it didn't get a 5 was its not very private, the outside is very exposed to anyone coming down the shared driveway and the house opposite can see into all the rooms on the driveway side. would help if the lawned aera was hedged along that side.
