4/10 Poor

Michael V.

Liked: Cleanliness
The first floor was pet friendly, but stairways lacking sufficient traction and balustrades to prevent catastrophic falls made much of the interior unsafe for pets. The lack of balustrades also made it not very kid friendly. The basement stairs were not to code; no handrails. The basement steps were also covered in an epoxy-type coating, meaning they may be slippery when wet. There was also steep, unsafe access to a third floor attic in the children's room that was incredibly unsafe and should be more sufficiently blocked off to mitigate incidents from curious toddlers being drawn to climb the structure leading up there.

Beautiful, well-designed home deserves a 10 out of 10 for aesthetics. Very glad Jing (the host) and her family are sharing this jewel of a home with the rest of us. Jing was a quick, kind and cordial communicator. The house location was quiet and tranquil. Nearby lake was within walking distance and delightful.
