The Perfect house-10 years ago
This house was almost perfect… it had a fridge (that didn’t make ice and didn’t keep ice cream frozen), it had a stand alone ice maker (that also didn’t make ice)… we had no ice for drinks or coolers and the freezer wasn’t cold enough to buy ice. The faucet in the sink wouldn’t really turn off… the valve was loose so you had to spin the handle and it always turned off in a different orientation. The stove worked fine but the oven cooked terrible. Almost like the top element is out… everything was raw on top and burned on bottom. My husband and I brought 6 teenagers and ate every meal in. There were 3 plates and 6 forks … this made for a very interesting spaghetti night. There were no trash bags when we got there so we had to walk all trash out the the dumpster (but they brought us those on day 2). The layout of this house is wonderful. We LOVED the location. Bedrooms were laid out wonderfully. Nice big bathrooms. Pool was great to have right there and the beach was a super easy walk….

Great House needs TLC
Very nice set up. Close to the beach. It does need some TLC. Living room furniture needs replacing. Needs fresh interior paint. New kitchen faucet that doesn't require puzzle skills to turn off. New dryer needed.
