We're located on the north side of Ashton just off US 20. Easy access to everything: groceries, gas, restaurants, hardware stores, laundromat, Family Dollar, and a great town park. A quiet, family-oriented neighborhood, we are on a .5 acre lot with a large yard and adjoining undeveloped lots. Great for kids and pets. If you are hauling boats or other toys on trailers, there's room. No through parking but it is pretty easy backing.
Guests will stay in one half of the house in complete privacy. Interaction with me, your host, is at whatever level you want. I am sometimes here, sometimes not. When I am here I keep a low profile. You will probably see more of my old Golden Retriever than me.
You will be in a quiet, family-oriented neighborhood. There is a great, well-maintained kid park two blocks away. Additionally, there are basketball and tennis courts as well as a small swimming pool in summer.
The house is one level. At this time there is not wheelchair access- sorry. Working on it. We've split the house in half. The guest area is made up of rooms off a hallway, all connected. There are two bedrooms, one King with a TV, gas stove, and electric heat, and one Queen with, a closet, and electric heat. Both rooms have clothing storage, ceiling fans, and windows. The King room is the only direct outside access, BUT... ask, there are alternatives for the Queen access if necessary. The bedrooms have touch lamps that are equipped with USB, USB-C outlets for charging phones etc. There are pet bed covers if your pet sleeps with you.
There is one full bathtub and shower. Standard amenities. Hair dryer. Fire extinguisher under the bathroom sink.

Sorry, no kitchen sink!
There's a deck attached to the house and guest entry, which guests are free to use. There is yard/deck furniture for the summer months. Additionally, there will be a smaller portable Weber grill available for burgers and hotdogs.
