The best part....We totally enjoyed the sunshine and the nice pool! Watching all of the wildlife around the lake was a highlight of the day, as well as star gazing in the pool at night! The bed was comfortable. The cable tv package was great. The internet worked well.
The not so good part....the property is in major need of TLC. The rock beds in the pool area were full of tall weeds. The pool furniture was covered in green mold and dirty, so were unusable. We were able to use the outdoor dining chairs and table, but even those are rusting on the feet, and fitted with seat pads that are too big for them. Moving inside, the house needs a major cleaning, and most of the furniture needs replaced, as it is covered with soiled spots. It looked as if repairs were being done shoddily (wall patches, duck tape repairs, missing towel bar, one of the sinks in master not working). The overall feel of the house is outdated. The pictures state a new fitted kitchen, but this kitchen is anything but new.
We walk everyday, so we saw quite a bit of the neighborhood. The individual community and surrounding communities are nice. The main road leading into the community has woods, and these woods run along the fence that surrounds the lake behind the house. On our walks, we saw 3 or 4 encampments where people were living in the woods. This made us a bit nervous.
This house could be a beautiful place with some updates and professional repairs. Perhaps once the owner is permitted to return from the UK, things will be taken care of.
