Dear Future Homeowners
It seems like yesterday, when we moved to Garthwaite Terrace. We had a toddler and a baby on the way. We loved this home, but we didn’t realize just how special life inside these walls would be. Fast forward twelve years, three kids, one goofy Goldendoodle, and countless magical moments that bring us to today. This house is like a warm hug. The living room has held hundreds of movie nights complete with a fire in the fireplace, cushions and blankets on the floor and big bowls of popcorn. The sunny playroom has seen hours of magical, imaginative play. The light spills into the dining room, where the kids and their friends gathered almost daily for afternoon snacks and art projects. When the weather was warm, the deck and yard were always filled with neighborhood kids playing and riding bikes in the driveway. Lemonade stands on the corner pop up every spring, where more lemonade and cookies are consumed than sold. When summer turns into autumn, and the leaves are getting crunchy, Halloween will be in the air. Halloween is a big deal in this neighborhood. There’s the traditional Kendal Halloween parade, with bobbing for apples and donuts on a string. Snow days in the winter mean sledding, movies, and hot chocolate! Summertime is the best. As the days get longer, you’ll spend evenings lingering outside with the neighbors while the kids play until it is too dark to see. One of the best things about this home is the proximity to schools, the park, and Maplewood village. Our children had the unique opportunity to gain a true sense of independence when they learned to walk to school, the park, and eventually to the village with friends after school. The longer we lived here, the village became like an extension of our home. The children got to know the pizza guys at Roman Gourmet and Indira at the toy store. They rode bikes to the grocery store to pick up an extra ingredient that we needed for dinner or played in the creek behind Jefferson school. The walkability of this neighborhood is unbeatable. This is a home that love built. I’ve always imagined that one day, when we moved on, this house would care for another family the way it did for us. Deep in these walls lay peace, laughter, and joy. We hope you will continue to feel it’s magic for many years to come.
With Gratitude,
