The well-sized homes are located on their abundant lots fairly close to the sidewalks, which is especially wonderful for folks who want to be upfront and center with what’s happening around them; or even if its more important that you not have a large front yard to mow every weekend or a shorter distance to take that weekly trash curbside set-out. 

You’ll see the pride in homeownership and investment in the community as a whole as you drive the neighborhood.
