What a beautiful and well appointed cottage. Thoroughly enjoyed watching happenings across the street (especially soccer and football matches) at the high school. Surprisingly quiet at night despite being near to hospital and high school. Fantastic location to walk downtown and enjoy shops and restaurants. Great front porch to dine or visit. Thank you!
