FROM THE SELLER
A little from the sellers about the location, and what they’ll miss about the neighborhood:
“Walkable neighborhood that’s close to the Met Market, our amazing neighbors, all the beautiful touches we added to the home, wanes-coating, new kitchen! Lots of outdoor space to host, eat outside, rose bushes, lavender for calm to add indoors, and cherry blossom trees.”
“It’s perfect for all the shops at Point Ruston, parks, and the best grocery stores. Central location and easy to hop on I-5 if commuting.”
“When dining out we love Cactus, Valhalla Coffee, and Indo Asian Eatery!”
