Accurate Description, Responsive Owner
Yes, the title says "Beautiful Views", but we were still pretty struck (in a positive way) by the view of the lake from the two large (6' x 9'?) windows from the main room. So, I'm just confirming that the views were indeed beautiful. And, yes, it's a quiet area of the combined Bear Trap and Wapogassett lakes. I had a few questions early on, and the owners were responsive. Also, as you can see in the pictures, this is a very up-to-date home with recent remodeling.
There is a problem with getting cold water to come out of the kitchen sink at more than a dribble for longer than it takes the hot water to catch up. The owner showed a way to finesse the faucet handle to get more pressure by shifting the handle towards the hot side, but the temperature would go to mostly hot even with that trick if we had tested it for a longer time - like maybe within 30-45 seconds perhaps. This mattered because we were trying to rinse fresh fruit and did not want to use hot water on the fruit. The owner and I agreed that this was related to a water filter on only the cold line, and I believe them that the filter itself had been recently changed. But, I think someone with more plumbing knowledge than either of us might need to take a look at what's going on there.
Regardless of the kitchen cold water situation, I was very happy with both the home and the responsiveness of the owners. My family were very happy with this place.
