A Letter from the Sellers
From the beginning, this house has been a place of celebration and joy. We brought both of our children home here, and we’ve filled every corner with laughter and love. Some of our fondest memories were spent celebrating holidays with family, enjoying warm summers in the backyard with friends, and watching our little ones take their first steps on the hardwood floors. The yard has been our personal oasis, a space where we’ve shared barbecues, played games, and watched our children grow.The sense of community on this street is truly special. We couldn’t have asked for better neighbors - they’ve become lifelong friends, and we’ll miss them dearly. It’s rare to find a neighborhood that feels as connected as this one, where we always felt welcomed and supported.
One of the things we’ve loved most about living here is the proximity to all the amazing local spots. Being just a short distance from the fantastic restaurants and shops on Grand, Lakeshore, and Park Ave has been a treat. Whether it's a casual brunch, a walk to the farmer’s market, or an evening out, we’ve enjoyed every minute of exploring the vibrant local scene.As we move on to our next chapter, we hope that 789 Santa Ray brings you as much happiness as it brought us. This home has been the backdrop of so many beautiful memories, we’re confident it will be the perfect place for you to create your own.Warmly,
