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.

I manage this remotely as my job took me away. I have a friend who helps. Sometimes things are missed. Please let me know of deficiencies.

Here are known issues:
Shower drips. Turn back the cold knob ever so slightly. I will eventually need to tear out the wall covering to replace some pipes.
Bathroom sink is prone to clogging. It’s the way the house was designed, but there is an easy fix. Let me know and I can have someone come by.

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.

Neighborhood highlights

Converse Heights is filled with 1930's era Craftsman and Colonial Revival homes. My street seems to be particularly popular with dog walkers. This is probably the best maintained old neighborhood in the city.
