We welcome dogs that have been potty trained and we also welcome cats. We are open to putting up a fence for the driveway, however, dogs must still remain on leash as the garden is a shared space. Questions welcome. COTTAGE: There is a cottage in the back that is an Airbnb unit. It is listed at the high end of the market and we are picky about our guests. Everyone so far has been great and a pleasure to meet. Mostly couples traveling or parents coming into town to visit family. We only see the guests in passing maybe once a week. The two homes function like any of the other neighbors, very independently. In the 12 years that we have had tenants and guests in the back we have only heard anything once when we were outside and they had their windows open. Guests often remark on the quietness of the neighborhood. If you have any questions or concerns, please let us know and we are always open to addressing quickly any concerns that may arise in the future. NO SMOKING/VAPING OF ANY KIND: Non-negotiable A full lease agreement will provide additional details.
