Other things to note Other things to note - - There are plenty of steps to climb to access various areas in the house - Lot of birds come to the property or nest here. Sparrows, parrots, magpies frequent the bird feeder all the time. Do not scare them - In the summer, there could be large spiders in the rooms. These are totally harmless and do not make webs.
