The perfect location
My wife and I hosted friends for a week in the Norton Orchard Rd house last week. The house is nestled down an unpaved country lane among similarly modest homes. Quaint and quiet and lovely. The house is full of light and features views of the expansive deck and pool through the many French doors and windows in the back. The kitchen was tight, but had everything we needed to cook and prepare meals and the dining table and family room area served as host to gatherings, games, and naps. And, the location! Our friends came in and left on different days, so we made several trips to and from the airport — easy peasy because it’s less than ten minutes away. We regularly walked into town to get coffee or meals, a therapeutic massage, or meet other friends also on holiday. The Sherriff Sanctuary is close, as well and proved a relaxing respite we could easily walk to. We brought kayaks from home and accessed ponds and beaches which while idyllic and romantic, leaves peeps in the house with no transportation. This was a burden to some last year in Katama, but in this in-town ish location was not limiting to anyone’s good time. The house is appointed well with an outdoor grill, towels aplenty, comfy beds and sheets, two sets of washer dryers, and so many bathrooms that no one had to share. Everyone wants us to get this house next year instead of a fancier house on the water. We’re inclined that way, as well.
