- Outdoor features range from expansive deck areas to private swimming pool with barbeque area and gorgeous landscaping.
It’s helpful to decide the essentials you’re looking for (number of bedrooms, for example), and decide which are the most important elements to you.
Also ask yourself, 'would guests love to stay here?'
Consider how much of the time you will be living on the property and how often you plan to rent out the property, or if you plan to do both at the same time, then how can each area be privatised?
- Is there a locked storage cupboard to store your belongings while you are away?
- Is there an area to store linen or wash & dry laundry on-site? also cleaning materials and supplies?
- Can one bedroom be converted into a private guest lounge with tea/coffee making facilities and small fridge?
- Can a private deck and summer kitchen be added, or a swimming pool, as an attractive feature to entice guest bookings?
