There are some nicer small homes in that area and the area is very well kept.
The windows and siding wouldn't have been my choice but it's still a gem. I love the roofline. And such pride of ownership. A nice 'good news' story.
There are definitely some pretty and unique houses in this neighbourhood. Thanks for covering it.
my boss from work owns one of these house"s on Dakota
Just wondering if this "new" subdivision were to be built today - would we call it sprawl? Our forefathers saw and probably thought a growing city which was a good thing then.
