Drive thru Starbucks at entrance to neighborhood – nice for that morning you’re scrambling and need coffee to go. Just saying…..
What our neighbors are like….. Everyone is very nice and friendly. The neighbor across the street has a major green thumb and is always sharing plants. Kids are well behaved. There are a friendly dog walkers and joggers in the neighborhood. The neighborhood is well established so lots of large trees. Yards are decent sized so you don’t feel on top of people.
We enjoy this particular house/floorplan because…..
Having the master separate from the other bedrooms is very nice. Also, no stairs has been good for our old knees. Love the big driveway since we have lots of vehicles and visitors. The huge deck is great. The yard is “big enough” to feel spacious but not so huge to be a pain to take care of and nice and flat. Ranch
