Other things to note
This is an old house filled with history and charm.
However, it’s not without its quirks.
The shower is small... but the clawfoot is huge.
I have an exterminator that comes quarterly, but given the proximity to the woods and age of the house, it’s not uncommon to to see critters, usually expired.
