The tenants will also move the trash cans to the curb for pick up for you on Sunday night.Original hardwood floors grace most of the home and there are traditional Spanish pavers in the kitchen and courtyard. The formal dining room seats 8 - 10comfortably and many guests also enjoy a meal outdoors in the backyard at the second dining table under a large pergola with cheerful, outdoor lighting woven in among the wisteria.
