This property is lovely, located in a nice quiet rural pocket. The issues I had were, the property has security cameras all around it one of them facing the deck & potentially the master. Which should have been stated. It made us very uncomfortable to know we would be watched if using deck and kept blind down in master. Next the master bedroom closet is locked. Only drawers in the room had owners clothes in them. When we asked what to do we were told to put these in another wardrobe in another room. These too all had owned storage and clothes in them. In the end we lived out of suitcases.Next the surround sound system showing in the pictures the large speakers are disabled.Next there is no garage remote so prepare to have someone get out of car in rain and go to open door and then open garage. Next the clothesline is a loose wire strung across garage which hits your boot should you open it. If you use it, it sags. Next the gas fire is temperamental so requires being turned on multiple times to stay on. Also no pantry space provided so you will need to love owners food items to store your own. Lastly the home was filled with pictures of the owner and their family. Large portrait photos in the kitchen and sitting room taunted the environment and took away from the luxury escape feeling. I was provided a tiny refund for these issues, and the home was lovely to be in. If it had not of been for these items I would have given it a 10/10. Would love a do over without issues.
