-Note that the Logan Greystone is in a dense urban environment, which makes things extremely convenient but with that you may experience external noise from loud vehicles, emergency services, dogs parking, and neighbors enjoying their backyard. The house was also built over 130 years ago. Yes, there has been a remodel, but the insulation is not the same as what’s required in new construction so you may hear our family from time to time and vice versa. Welcome to city living!
