Summary: We came because relatives live in Enfield not knowing anything except what was listed. We were surprised to find a beautiful renovation of the interior of this building. The master bedroom runs the length of the rear of the building, look out into the woods behind. Behind it was a large patio with grill and comfortable furniture and a herb garden. A short path into the woods led to the stream that ran behind. Inside was everything we could imagine needing, using technology where useful. Of particular interest to us were cooking needs for which it was fully equipped. The one shortcoming of note is its location on a fairly busy highway with the resulting traffic noise much of the time. The bedrooms, however, are along the back of the building, where closing the doors and windows mitigates the noise. Jennifer responded quickly and was friendly and helpful throughout. All in all, we had a great time.
