This is a gorgeous neighborhood that has carefully blended new development with its deep rooted history. The neighborhood is very walkable with wide, well-maintained, sidewalks and low-density traffic. You can walk to Trader Joe's and Eddy St. Commons without crossing an intersection with a traffic light. It is also a very easy, pleasant walk to Notre Dame (10-15 minutes).
The East Race Trail is less than a half mile from the house. Kelly Park is just one block north which features a kids playset, soccer nets, and basketball courts.
