This home welcomed us to the Midwest. Snuggled in the block of the elementary, middle, and high schools, we loved the location. (We were also a quick block from the Lake Zorinsky loop for fabulous walks.) It was just right for us in so many ways - the staircase where Kindin always stretched out, the red door that Mom painted, the unfinished basement that Jack lived in, a grey shade that everyone began copying, the gigantic garage featured lovingly named purgatory, a bedroom (albeit hot) with double closets for the girls, the cozy living room that started as an off the kitchen playroom, that catwalk that didn't hide party noise but gave an airy feel, the 19 foot floor to ceiling windows, the squeezy entry made swanky by Dad, Mom's first big bath, the swingset and trampoline for wiggles, and even that ninja-friendly, Birch tree allergen out front! It was a wonderful and beautiful place to house our family!
