Owner’s story: I originally saw the house when I was sitting on the top deck of a bus on the way to visit my aunt at age 11 and knew then that this was the house that I wanted. We have loved living here; it is the only home my son has known, and he loves it too. If it wasn't for the rising costs of living, we would not be downsizing and would live here forever!
