What the owner loves about this home
It's on a dead end street, and you don't need to drive to the airport, you can simply walk. It's in a historical neighborhood, but not on the register, so theres no limit what you can do with it. You can walk a kayak down to the river or the ocean in under five minutes. You can see the waterfall from the road you drive to get here. Very walkable and friendly neighborhood.
