We have really enjoyed this cheerful La Belle home (purchased in 2003) and have put a lot of work into it. It is ready-to-live, all things operational, no major repairs necessary. We have set it up especially for young children, but it would also be nice for an older couple or a family with 2-3 teens. Good, quiet, long-term neighbors on both sides and across street. We think you'll like it if you see it!
