North Side (Front)
Pros:
Large and full of trees and substantial rocks. Tall wooden fence along edge cuts down on noise and blocks activity of road. Driveway area, walkway, and land have lots of potential.

Cons:
Driveway doesn’t drain well and layout needs help. No garage. Gutters and damaged roof drain onto house and perimeter creating wet siding and muddy/icy walkway. Fairly busy street.

West Side
Pros:
Big distance between house and neighbor’s. Diverse thicket of trees.

Cons:
Carport serves no real purpose and detracts from original design .

East Side
Pros:
Big distance between house and neighbor’s. Stream running between properties.

Cons:
View of neighbor’s house and business. Noise from activity of neighbor’s business.

South Side (Back)
Pros:
South facing so all day sun. Abutts acres of conservation land so view continues unimpeeded for as far as the eye can see.

Cons:
Back 2/3 of property is protected wetlands: difficult to walk around/play on; cannot be built on. Some tree damage/death due to brook runoff/swampy conditions.
