The space
I spent six months living in this side of the house, fixing it up all the time. There is a lot of color in the house. I like color.

I love the wood floors. They have had 85 years of sharing life with the many people who called this home.

The house is in good shape and clean. The kitchen is basic but very serviceable.

The brick patio in back is pleasantly shaded. I was quite pleased when one of my guests threw a party on the patio, so I added party lights. It deserves that kind of love and attention.

The laundry room is just to the side of the entrance. It is fully stocked with laundry supplies. There is a small ironing board in the front closet.

There is good sound insulation between the halves. The neighborhood is quiet.

If you sit out on the front porch you will see lots of dog walkers go by. Or you can enjoy the many squirrels that live fat off the numerous nut trees in the area. This is the squirreliest place I have ever lived.

Guest access
Guests are able to use the duplex at 547. The basement is off-limits. The back patio, front porch and yard are all available for your enjoyment. Parking is in the rear or on a parking pad on the side street.

Other things to note
The wall switch nearest the TV controls power to the TV and router. Turn this off and you lose power to the TV and your wi-fi. In other words: don't.
