About the host
Hosted by John
We are family of 4 who originally purchased the home to serve as an escape from our everyday lives. Here is where we could easily tune out all other distractions and enjoy the privacy of a large lot and each other's company. Our time & memories created here will not long be forgotten.
Why they chose this property
The area sits on the outskirts of downtown where the forest edges the city and with a popular park accross the street from our home. This serves as the perfect backdrop and everyone in proximity uses it for their leisure activities. Youll always see people out walking and enjoying themselves, this adds to the charm of the area.
What makes this property unique
Opposite to the busy scene out front you can step out the back exit to be immediated transported to a private nature setting that can be further explored at your own leisure.
