...and what really strikes you about Douglas Sub is how compact it feels—just 2 acres with tight lots around 0.24 acres each, so there's an actual neighborhood density here rather than sprawl. You're a short walk from a restaurant, grocery shopping's about 12 minutes on foot, and Central Park sits just 7 minutes away when you need green space. Homes run around $494K, and the whole setup has that in-town convenience without feeling cramped.
