The house and garden are exactly as in the pictures. Fly screens everywhere and well maintained. No washing machine is a bit of a shame but knowing that shouldn't be a problem. The garden is really great and the barbecue area is perfect for cozy evenings. You can also get to the lake or a shopping mall quickly. The only negative thing we noticed was the flush. It was often difficult to get everything to drain, which was a bit unpleasant on the toilet. That should be improved! Otherwise, great
