The house and train station needed a bit of work when we got the place.  The grounds looked like they hadn't been maintained in years and the entry trees were so overgrown they literally drug on the car as we drove in and out.

The train station had been used as a virtual dumping ground, and from the looks of it they didn't much care that it was on the lot.

The inside of the house had some serious issues.  The breezway between the front and back doors was painted an aqua blue, so we named it the "fishbowl".  The kitchen color scheme is also shown below.
