Summary: Beautifully renovated older home! Unfortunately the area we rented was up a flight of stairs and the gathering space was up another flight of stairs away from the bedrooms and kitchen. Looks like this property can be divided into smaller rentals or the entire house. We rented just a part of the house. If you rent the entire house there would be gathering on the main level.
