Dear Future Homeowners of 583 Prospect Street
Twelve years ago, I left Manhattan for an appointment in NJ. Along the way, the appointment cancelled, leaving me to sit on a train going in the wrong direction. Luckily, a woman overheard my conversation and told me to get off at the next stop, Maplewood, to catch the train back home. I had never heard of Maplewood, but from the moment I stepped foot into town, something clicked. Six months later, my husband and I left the city and never looked back. Our first house was a wonderful space for us to bring home all three of our children, but 583 Prospect allowed the five of us to stretch out and grow! Our two oldest children learned to ride bikes in the expansive driveway, played many afternoons away with friends and neighbors in the amazing backyard or playground down the hill, and all three of our kids have enjoyed weekend mornings filled with arts and crafts on the back deck (using the working sink!). This house is beautiful and comfortable in every season. Whether you want to entertain a large group for the winter holidays, walk down the hill to see the July 4th firework display, or simply take in the quiet beauty and privacy of the yard in full bloom come Spring. Even when the summer months grow hot, the house is a cool respite (with new central AC!) just perfect for friends and family to relax in. Not to mention the location! This home is a stone's throw to street fairs, shops, summer camps, sports fields, Memorial Park concerts, multiple playgrounds, schools, and restaurants downtown...not to mention the train! We're heading out of state and though I will miss so much about our years in Maplewood, I know I will personally miss how we started every morning with a walk to school and daycare the most. The ease of life and community we have found here has been unforgettable and I will cherish it forever.
Best wishes,
Laura, Jeff, Piper, Luke, and Lily
